If I were a Sim I would need fun and social
THIS POST IS DEDICATED TO MY DEAR FRIEND, WILLARD
It's raining in south Carolina. But then again, when is it not raining here? I really don't mind it, though. It always clears up and gets hot again. The birds like the rain. I just saw a male house sparrow outside and got really excited. Derek doesn't think that the sparrows that come to our feeder are house sparrows. He doesn't think the males have the red patch that the pictures in the bird books show. But he's wrong. I've raised a million house sparrows. I took a class on birds. I know what House Sparrows look like. Anyway, he flew off before I got back with my camera. South Carolina may be ghetto but it definitely has good bird watching. We saw a Pileated Woodpecker a few weeks ago out at a county park. God dammit..I'm going to kill those squirrels if they don't stay off the feeder....ok I'm back.
I have a headache.
I'm trying to sell my couch on craigslist.com because we have two couches and mine is the less comfortable of the two. If you ever came to my house in Norman you might know it. It's huge and white and belonged to my grandmother before she gave it to my mom who gave it to Derek. Anyway, I knocked the price down to $40 because only one person showed interest in it after I'd had it listed for a week at $70 and that fell through. I had promising emails and a phone call with a girl who wanted to come get it Friday but I guess she decided she wasn't interested anymore. Since yesterday I've had two emails and a phone call. I think I might call the guy back who called me because he sounded nice and I haven't heard back from the guy who emailed me and wanted it. Like Jamie said, "this isn't Ebay. You don't get feedback. It's first come first serve." I'm desperate to get rid of it. It's taking up the entire garage. We'll see. I might just call Mica back in a few hours. I like that name. Maybe next time my Sims has a baby I'll name it Mica.
Derek is almost done with the first part of his school. The comprehensive exam is on Tuesday. He had a test last Thursday and Monday and the Thursday before that so he's been studying a lot lately. He was at work until 8pm yesterday. He hasn't been back at a decent time in a long time. I fill my days playing the Sims. I'll get a job after we get back from Oregon and once again there will be a point to my life. I'm coming back to Norman next Tuesday and staying until Friday. Then we're going to Oregon. Then Derek will fly back to Charleston to start the next phase of his school and I'll go to Colorado for 10 days. The last 3 days will be a family reunion. It should be fun. that side of the family likes to drink beer and smoke pot and go fishing. So what if half my family is white trash?
There is a freaking mosquito inside and it keeps biting my foot.
I. Hate. Bugs.
I think I'm going to make an amaretto sour and go watch tv. cyber seduction: His Secret Life is on Lifetime tonight. If you want a laugh go to somethingawful.com and read their review. Georgina and I used to always watch the Lifetime afternoon movie but it ended at 2 and we both had class at 1:50 so we never saw the end of any of the movies. damn shame.
