Here's a fun little story for everyone:
The problem with working on the retail purchasing calendar is that it throws off my internal calendar. E.g. for the past two weeks I have been so focused on Easter/Passover and Mother's Day. So when aquestrian emailed me to say she could probably hang out Friday, but tomorrow'd be no good because it's Valentine's Day ( Read more... ) -

Kate Nash's "We Get On" just came up on my iPod and that song always makes me giggle. (Also: Has anyone seen Kate Nash and Lily Allen in the same room? You haven't, right? Discuss ( Read more... ) -

Here's a funny story: MI-5 season 5 came out last month. I preordered it from B&N so when it showed up on my doorstep I was all excited to pop that sucker in the DVD player and revel in the wonderful British espionage-y goodness.

SPECIAL 6AM DOORBUSTERS!!!!!!!!
Good Lord I have been having some terrible dreams lately. A few days ago I dreamed I was driving around back in El Burque, and for some reason while making a right turn onto Lomas I turned across the median and into oncoming traffic; I slammed on the brakes, but then a cop pulled up and gave me a ticket for EIGHTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ( Read more... ) -
I'm on the pavement, thinking about the government.
Weird mood tonight; weird mood most of the weekend and week so far, though, too. I've been feeling a bit uneven - going from a good mood to grumpy to withdrawn to okay-mostly-content to murderous - maybe "a bit" is understating the case; though "murderous" is overstating the case, or so one would hope.
I also don't seem to be writing in actual ( Read more... )
