( Brain dump )

My Kindle is officially my New Favorite Thing. The only problem I have is that I have too many options. I'm in the middle of FOUR books right now. The Shinning The Shining (not creepy yet!), Seriously...I'm Kidding (pithy and substance-free), The Secret Life of Hoarders (I was expecting case studies more than advice-with-examples), and Game Change ( Read more... )

Therapy went pretty well. I realized that I'm like, minimizing my pain vs. other people's. (ie: "But you had a miscarriage, you have it so much worse than me.") My pain is still real, yo. She wasn't just A cat, she was MY cat, dammit. I just emailed her the two giant entries I made, which I feel will save a lot of time, and we have another ( Read more... )

Part two. This is hella long. I'd be shocked if this wasn't the longest entry I've ever made in the almost 10 years I've had this LJ.

I think it's best if I don't get all gloaty about working so few hours in a month if that situation arises in the future. My morning counterpart called in both yesterday and today, so I hit 19 hours today. Did I mention I was supposed to be off today? Cuz I totally was ( Read more... )

Saw Joel McHale on May 7, like I said I would. ( Read more... )

The first step of my trip is dropping off Kitty at the hoosegow/boarders tonight. *sniffle* I'll be spending V-day night alone. My life partner, with whom I share my bed, having been carted off to someone else to take care of her for a week.[/dramaaaaaatic]

BTW, she's been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. She was prescribed methimazole, a generic ( Read more... )

I'm going to wait a few days to see HBP again. I want to listen to the book again before I go. So, yes. This will not be like my four-times-in-the-first week The Dark Knight screenings. (One of those on the way down to the airport for Comic-Con '08, and one the day after CCI, in San Diego, with scaryveinybbMy DME appointment went very, very well. She was all ( Read more... )

OMGGGGGG, I will be watching Half-Blood Prince in 11 hours ( Read more... )
