my eyes are shutting so I better learn the fine art of brevity.
today was one of those rainy days in which both boys went a little bit crazy because they were VERY VERY TIRED not to mention VERY VERY CRANKY not to mention VERY VERY STUCK INSIDE BECAUSE THE WEATHER HAS TURNED ON US on top of the real problem which is I think they really annoy the shit out of each other, what with having to constantly fight for my undivided attention. God forbid I am pouring Miles a glass of water WHEN IT IS OBVIOUS ISAAC WANTS TO BE HELD. you get the idea.
anyway, I didn't end of throwing either of them from the porch roof, but I did have to leave the room make that exasperated noise I must have learned from my own mother. twice.
so yeah, longest day ever, & then I did an interview for the Queer Elders Project in which I probably sounded completely inane because I think I went half-to-sleep around five today.
& then I finally got to meet The! Famous! Chris! Johnson! in the flesh & I'm happy to report that he might be my new favorite person, even if he is stealing my room at Casa Roommates.
I also ate a lot - I always feel vaguely sick after I leave that house & I think it's because Chaz stuffs me like a fucking Christmas goose. he brings home things from the Windjammer AND HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO SAY NO TO A FREE SANDWICH WHEN I AM STARVING AT HOME?!
hopefully my dad is reading this & he's now suitably alarmed & will be calling me tomorrow re: grocery shopping. YES THAT'S RIGHT DAD, I USED MY LAST BOX OF COUSCOUS THE OTHER NIGHT.
in other news, I turned what would have been a cold & drizzly walk into an adventure when I stopped at Brooks and spent a REALLY long time picking up some new makeup... I've been using Bare Minerals foundation since last December but am officially out of everything & decided maybe I would try a similar product in a drugstore brand to see how it compared because if I like it that's like ninety dollars I can spend on iced nonfat caramel macchiatos or making copies of my Wo-manifesta at Kinko's whenever I get around to writing down all that shit. I also had a 40% off coupon AND I CAN NEVER PASS ON A DEAL. so I'm trying out Physicians Formula Mineral Foundation tomorrow & we'll see how it stacks up because for a great many months there, my Bare Minerals kit was the first thing I would grab if my house was on fire.
I also bought a new lipstick because it seemed like the ladylike thing to do, & some nail polish because my pedicure is looking busted & I need a dose of BRIGHT! MAGENTA! in my life pretty badly.
so anyway, enough about makeup.
I also used Lemon Body Cream for the first time in a long time & I might have to someday make a specific post to address my love for all things from the lotion store.
I'm trying to think of more ways to become famous even if this beatboxing thing doesn't pan out & I keep coming back to "famous eccentric writer" so does anyone have any ideas?
maybe I will try to become famous by setting a world record for sleep... or laying in bed. Longest Time Ever Spent Completely Running One's Life From One's Cluttered Bed. I bet I could last months as long as Betsy keeps sharing wireless with me & people come over to drop off food once in a while.
except girls that spend all of their time in bed don't get the golden opportunity that is my Wednesday morning. & by golden opportunity I mean some day I will write volumes using only my Wednesday mornings for material. my work will move many & answer that pressing question: what do you get when you combine the sassiest most high maintenance two & a half year old with the world's most stubborn little beast, ringing in at a big two & a quarter. hint: answer = a tingling in your left arm & a sore throat from your favorite saying, the looped track: "oh no! we don't hit our friends! we hug our friends & love our friends!"
they're so cute though, it should probably be illegal.
