Been playing "Somebody is wrong on the Internet!" In this case, on facebook with one of my lovely college buddies, because I went to a psycho conservative Christian college. I am a queer agnostic pagan thing (pagnostic?) with incredibly liberal politics in a polyamorous relationship. Going on a limb and saying my college was a somewhat poor fit ( Read more... )

It's been a while since you've seen my nieces. They're doing great. Evie-Pie turns three the end of January. She talks a lot. Also, she believes she and her sister used to be kangaroos. Addie-Cake is getting biiiig and gets upset if she can't see her big sister. She's starting to scoot around where she wants to go; Becky reports Evie spends a ( Read more... )

Adelaide Rae was born yesterday at 11:34. She's 20 inches long, 8 pounds 4 ounces, and already has more hair than her older sister. No pictures yet, sadly ( Read more... )

Finally got around to seeing The Hunger Games with my mother. I enjoyed it! Haymitch and Cinna are my favorite characters in the books and, turns out, also in the movie. Love love love.

Spent yesterday and the night before quite sick. Doing better today, although woke this morning with a massive headache; some tea seems to have helped so I was probably dehydrated and/or needed some caffeine or something.

So I stopped in a late night convenience store in my new neighborhood on my way home from work. Right by the entrance are two freezers full of ice cream. Over those are shelves covered almost exclusively in Pringles and Oreos. I think I'll be calling this Mitch's Munchies Mart, because . . . seriously ( Read more... )

Christmas was cool. In addition to my new Snuggie, I got a flask (lulz), Doctor Who Season 5, chocolate, a crock pot, a new bento box, and pretty much way more crap than I have any right to own. I am spoiled ( Read more... )

Yesterday my sister made dinner for my dad's birthday. My niece now refers to me as either "aghghgh" or "Dah!" which is also Evie-speak for "duck," no doubt because of a riveting conversation we had not too long ago. ("Here's your duck!" "Dah!" "Duck!" "Dah!" "Duck!" for five minutes.) I really, really hope she doesn't end up calling me Auntie ( Read more... )
