I love lawn seats and chilly night-time air and (mostly) conservatively-dressed-white-folks getting down the only way they know how (which is, sadly, the only way I know how ( Read more... )

And because I find this extremely right-on.



Have a lovely evening.

Tomatoes and fresh mozzarella for lunch. Yum ( Read more... )

I am way, way, WAY too busy at work.

Perhaps I'll be better at posting next week.

But here's a brief:

Will&Grace is a painful, not-funny, boring show.

The ballet is tonight.

I'm still sick.

My new camera has yet to be de-flowered.

Jennifer Aniston has somehow become cute, charming, and (gasp) talented to me. What is that?

Last night our new and much-beloved neighbors (aka *the fucking frat-ies*) decided to build a fire. Uncontained. In their backyard. In the desert. Inches away from a dead tree that hangs over the fence into their yard.

Typically, I try to take such antics with a grain of salt - I am aware of my extreme loathing of frat kids (or even kids that ( Read more... )

I can't stop quoting the trailer for the new Dana Carvey movie.

My sense of humor is so completely random. (Or, maybe, I laugh and am entertained by things that are actually funny.)

We saw Y Tu Mama Tambien for the second time last night. For $1.50 each. I absolutely love seeing wonderful films in a theater for such a bargain. Makes me feel all ( Read more... )

The scholars will be here Thursday. I'll be hosting and organizing and catering to VIP's until Sunday. I have *got* to kick this thing before it really starts ( Read more... )

I got my hair cut. Again. The back and sides grow way too fast, and I felt all blah and uninteresting. And, now, I am all short and cropped in the back and I can go about my business.

On a completely different note, I've been thinking a lot lately about how easy it is to ignore what's-going-on-in-the-world-(this.country). We are a society based ( Read more... )

It is pouring down rain right now. Pouring.

But, still, it's hardly a "monsoon." Silly Southwesterners don't know how to handle a little water.

L is in Bisbee today to start her new job. She will be gone between 2-4 days a week (days AND nights). And not that that's going to kill me, but I'm not looking forward to her not being around.

We've been having an extreme amount of discussions lately. Not in the fighting-and-not-listening-to-each-other way that I'm used to, but in the this-isn't ( Read more... )
