I'm wetting my pants!
Great weekend with The Boy. Saw The Watchmen. It was okay; I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more if I were more familiar with the comic. Or, you know, at all familiar with the comic ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I'm sitting in my bookstore today, minding my business. Reading my book. In comes this woman. She's been here before, I know she's obnoxious. She tells me her brother has been in earlier then pauses, as though expecting me to know exactly who her brother is and make some comment on him. She tells me his name, as though everyone gives me their name ( Read more... ) -
Back in Black!
I am back in the Burg and back with The Boy and life is good. Who knows, maybe I'll get the interwebs again at some point and be able to post more frequently. Back to work! -
Mojitos = love
When you're going on 5 hours of sleep and most of the day in an air conditionless car, one mojito before dinner is all it takes. I'm feelin' pretty good right now.
Who knew I could ever like rum again? -
Cars are expensive and stupid
I love my car. Don't get me wrong. My little Artemis is a trooper. But lately...not so much. It started last fall on my first trip to Detroit. I had a spark plug go bad but Ford tried to take advantage of my wallet by telling me I needed $1000 worth of work. I didn't get it done but it was an expensive weekend just the same ( Read more... ) -
Look! I'm back! *waves*
I've been gone because...of nothing. Absolutely nothing has been keeping me from LJ other than sheer laziness.
I am moving to Virginia in August and I have slowly, slowly, begun to pack. I think I have maybe 4 boxes of books. I've got to pick up some more boxes and decide what to get rid of and blah, blah, blah. Moving is such a hassle, but I'm ( Read more... ) -
Cleaning
My parents are coming next weekend and I decided that this weekend had to include a drastic overhaul of my closets and apartment in general. I re-arranged furniture and got a new bookshelf. But I thought I'd share some pictures of the cleaning in-progress.

Easter lunch outrage
More proof that you should never talk politics at the family dinner table. I was with Brother at his partner's family Easter get together. Partner had to work so it was just Bro and I. Sort of awkward, for me anyway, since I don't know them all that well. They've been nice enough. Quite nice and welcoming to me, actually ( Read more... ) -
Humdrum day
I went to bed around 6:30 last night with a migraine and slept all night. Went to work for an hour then came home and slept all day. Subtracting the three hours I was getting ready for and at work, I slept for about 20 hours. And I still have a stupid headache ( Read more... ) -
On reading
I finished Dracula about 3 minutes ago. It was really refreshing actually wanting to pick up a pencil and make notes in the margin and underline certain passages. It's comforting know that I don't have to do that but want to anyway. Reminds me that my brain's not dead. At least not yet. There's so much in this book. Of course there's all the ( Read more... )
