I'm not vain, just paranoid.
I wake up this morning, stumble into the bathroom, peer in the mirror and see a black hair on my upper lip.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!! NOT A MISSTACHE!!!! I CAN'T HAVE A MISSTACHE!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO - OOOOOOO...
I brush at it. Oh. It's just Maimer's.

Is it the cherry tree or the wooden teeth?
A little girl gazing at a poster of the 43 American Presidents fondly strokes one portrait and says, "I love you, George Washington."
I think I just met our first woman president to be.

Melancholy endings...
Well, my week of vacation is over and I don't feel like I did anything but discover that I'm dismally bored without my job to annoy me. Friends are leaving for school. Went out with the girls for goodbye drinks--my first time at a bar. (I've been busy, okay?) I ordered an amaretto sour, basically the only drink I know I won't choke on, and when ( Read more... ) -
Peebag strikes again.
At least my room is still safe. Peebag has declared war on the living room, the family room and now the dining room has joined the ranks of victims. I went in there for a teabag a little bit ago and soon found myself wandering the room, a packet of English Breakfast in my hand, playing hot-and-cold with an elusive pee smell. Sure enough, Mom's ( Read more... ) -
Because the men's room doesn't have that sweet couch.
At a coffee house with friend M., who's deaf, and her brother S. So M. comes back to the table and signs to S. that they're all out of paper towels in the ladies' room, could he let the staff know. S. hops up, then stops and you can see the exact moment when the realization hits him and he says, "Wow. This'll be awkward ( Read more... ) -
My favorite obsession... for now.
Okay, as previously mentioned, I went to see Aeon Flux again last night, this time with biblio_girl and Caffeine Chick, who's such an LOTR fan, she recognized Trevor Goodchild immediately as Celeborn. I don't know how.
See for yourself. (Includes Decker from Timeline and Borias from Xena, too.)Wow, Hippie Platinum is definitely not a good look for our Sir ( Read more... ) -
Not-so-dark obsession
Okay, I have a confession to make. I don't really own the Donnie Darko soundtrack. I am currently obsessed, not only with blogging and with Aeon Flux (saw it again last night), but with the song "Mad World" on the Donnie Darko soundtrack. Unfortunately, I don't have access to that song anywhere (none of our libraries has it!), so I've ordered ( Read more... ) -
I smell a new obsession
Just got back from seeing Aeon Flux with musegryph and biblio_girl. Okay and the big twist for me (no spoilers, don't worry) was not why are people disappearing or what is the government hiding, but where the hell have I seen that guy's face before? Seriously, the characters weren't the only ones deja-vuing here. And I'm not talking about Johnny Lee Miller, who ( Read more... ) -
So a guy walks into a bar... and says OUCH!
Sorry, that was corny. But appropriate for my current state of clumsiness. And I do have a story ( Read more... ) -
It's all college's fault... and teething's a bitch, too.
Rethinking my music choice the other day... "O Fortuna" probably would have been more appropriate for that medieval St. George combat, but I was in the mood for a more intimate, mob-hit kind of tone. Young, innocent Maimer peers through the stair railing at my slow-motion struggle in the coils of the gray accordeon hose, à la Laocoon, to the ( Read more... )
