Just got back from a work-vacation. More work-related news in the making. Want to write a huge rant-y cathartic thing right now, but have to work tomorrow at the butt crack of dawn, so no time. Maybe soon. Also, Goblin is a lap-cat, now. Not sure how to handle that ( Read more... )

My brother finally realized that he's in no situation to care for a cat, & our 4 kittehs have put their collective fuzzy foot down in letting us know that we don't need a 5th, soooo ( Read more... )

Check it out, fellow Central FL aging goth/waver club kids! The Coliseum is hosting a 701 South reunion! Ironically, they're calling it "Sunday Bloody Sunday", since that's what the night was called back in the day, but they're having it on Friday. This Friday, to be exact. Unfortunately, I still have to be at work on Saturday, but my boss said ( Read more... )

Christmas actually ended up being pretty good. Spent most of it w/ the Squeezypet fambly, with minimal bloodshed. As for my tree... I bought a new one on Xmas Eve eve. You know those pre-lit wire trees that are meant to be yard ornaments? Well they were only $25 at K-Mart. I friggin love it! You'd be amazed at how many ornaments you can cram ( Read more... )

I carved out a tiny chunk of room to put up the tree. The cats haven't seemed to pee on it, yet. I found enough spare Hallowe'en lights to illuminate it sufficiently. As I was tip-toeing around the tree figuring out the proper proportion of orange-to-purple lights, I lost my balance & fell butt-first onto the glass-top end table... which is now ( Read more... )

I am trying so desperately to get into the holiday spirit, & failing pretty miserably ( Read more... )

Finally got around to watching Mel Gibson's Jesus snuff film. Got almost halfway through before I had to stop & watch Happy Feet. Maybe I'll be able to stomach the rest of the Passion some other time.

Blech.

I love how this meme turned out.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, ( Read more... )

When I was a kid, I thought people who put their Xmas tree up on Thanksgiving day were weird ( Read more... )

There's so much still to get done before the party on Monday (if you missed the party invite, scroll down... unless you're Not Friended, in which case, don't bother ;} ). I've been chipping away at the Piles Of Crap, with generous amounts of video game vegging to calm me down in between bouts of activity, but there's still So Much left ( Read more... )

Still feeling overwhelmed & generally unhappy. I need to find myself a head-shrinker, but that's just one of the things overwhelming me. Wish I could quit my job, or at least go even more part-time than I already am, but we kindof need that money. Wish even more Squeezypet could quit one of his jobs. Not sure how many drive-by guiltings I can ( Read more... )
