I’m really frustrated by something, and I could use some advice on it, if you’re of a mind.
People accuse me of flirting a lot. Like, constantly. There’s two particular friends who bring it up almost every time they see me. “Ooooh, you were fliiirting”, like we’re all still in grade school. First, I don’t think I’m flirting. Second, I’m ( Read more... ) -
Happy Things
- Waking up while it's dark and watching a beautiful, honey-toned sunrise. The redwood outside my balcony is glowing.
- Chocolate chocolate chip muffins for breakfast.
- Discovering that a) I'm allowed to have more than one library card at a time, and b) the other library network has literally everything related to SPN, because she is also a fan. And ( Read more... )

I've tentatively decided this is my icon for my volunteer posts. We'll see how long that lasts.
Today, I was working with Random Acts of Flowers, where we take donated flowers and arrangements, break them up into new arrangements, and do surprise deliveries to people in hospice, hospitals, weddings, etc. It's a pretty nice idea ( Read more... ) -

Happy Things
- Libraries. I love libraries, and this is a particularly good one. I have more books than I'll actually read checked out right now, but whatever. Libraries.
- I made dinner so tasty last night that Ben has declared I will be making it again and again and again. Lots. And it was ridiculously easy.
- Mostly naked Matt Bomer. I mean, the guy is so ( Read more... )

Library Haul
I really should start keeping an attendant "Books Read This Year" tag, but it's a little late to keep track at this point. Besides, it'll mostly be fanfic. (Which might not necessarily be bad, but then I'd have to start rating them and reccing them and I think I'd be not so good at that, or I'd be so excited about the story that I'd babble longer ( Read more... ) -

I’m watching a Katrina/New Orleans documentary, When the Levees Broke, and it’s breaking my fucking heart.
I knew New Orleans had a history with hurricanes, but I didn’t realize it was so thoroughly interwoven into the culture of the city. There was Betsy in 1965, Katrina in 2005, there was an even more powerful storm than Katrina back in the 1927 ( Read more... ) -

Library trip! I, sadly, had to return Jupiter Ascending, and I was so pouty I didn't check out more than two more DVDs. I did, however, break my library rule: you can't take home more than will fit in your bag. In my defense, I was using a smaller tote than usual, so Ben let me toss the very small overflow into his carrier. That was the fun ( Read more... ) -

Okay, I don't know if I just got out of a dungeon or not, but the way Caine talks to Jupiter (in Jupiter Ascending) is so beautiful and thoughtful and submissive. It's very nice. I just loved that "May I kill him?" And the way he says "Your Majesty"--it's as loaded with meaning as "As you wish". And the restraint he behaves with towards her. ( Read more... )
