OMG, what a crazy week! Right now I'm off work because my brother and I were scheduled to get blood taken this morning. Usually I'm the one who pulls a vasovagal but Chewie went down in the parking lot this morning and we had to go back in to get him fixed up. Scared the crap out of me! Was prepared though, because I usually get faint I brought ( Read more... )

Two words:

THANK GOD.

I'm so so relieved, excited, delighted, awed, just... wow. Wow.

What a day, wow! Obama wins *and* we find out we're gonna be aunts on the same day. Congrats.... to all of us!!

Slowly but surely unpacking and thinking to ourselves "OMFG, we have this much crap still even after 7 trips to Goodwill?" LOL! But we're making progress!

She tends to sum things up nicely when she's pissed about important WTF issues. And as with last time I linked to a post like this... so not work safe due to very colorful and apt language. Lots of interesting stuff in the comments too. ( Read more... )

So apparently, it was my and Karen's presence that was keeping the monsoons at bay, because as soon as we left *boom* rain and flooding! *huggles to Amarin!* Insane timing! Her birdies have been relocated again and are safe and sound, but man it's weird to be so far away and feel so unhelpful. :/ I turned up my cell phone today so hopefully I' ( Read more... )

So, Guitar Hero III is both awesome and addictive. We've played it here at home with my brother, as well as with my sis and bro-i-Law the day after the 4th and yes, very addictive. For those who play, the guitarist we usually pick is Judy Nails for hawtness purposes. ;) We've beaten it on easy, skipping the Slayer song. I so didn't think I'd ( Read more... )
