What the fuck is going on with my computer? As of the last paragraph of my last entry, the keyboard has TOTALLY switched around... and issues are limited to typing within Firefox. (I am typing this entry in WordPad and doing a cut&paste ( Read more... )

It's been an odd day so far (which does not bode well, considering it is only 10am and I am still unshowered and undressed ( Read more... )

As you know, today is my second-favourite day of the year. No, not Groundhog Day (though we certainly watched Phil this morning, thank you Weather Channel for cutting to commercial). No, not the Lost premiere (though I will certainly be subjected to that later this evening). That's right, the Oscar nominations were announced about an hour ago ( Read more... )

Arrrr! Shiver me timbers, 'tis Talk Like a Pirate Day! I plan to be bendin' elbows and chugging back grog at ruthven05's Pirate Parrrty tonight. As I said, that's the plan--migraines have been scrapin' the barnacles off my bow for the past fortnight, and today is no exception.

For example, this would have been the perfect time to give myself a pedicure, but instead I got hit with a massive case of Fuck-I-Don't-Care. It took ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I've updated, hasn't it? Truth is... Okay, half-truth is, I've been really busy. There's been wedding-ness, and girly-ness, and wine club-ness, and Fourth of July-ness, and more wedding-ness (less than 2 months, ZOMG!). We went to a Phillies game late last month (not a game they won, sadly), we've been out to dinner a ( Read more... )

Spent the weekend fighting a sudden and, if not exactly awful then certainly awful-sounding, chest cold. Being sick is one of the few times I will allow myself to sack out and watch loads of crap television without feeling guilty about it.

I'm not sure what's worse--that I will admit to watching Step Up, or that I could immediately tell it was ( Read more... )
