I went to go see The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey last night with sideshow_ericka since she wanted to see it again and I wanted to see it, period. Given the scope of the film, and of course various additions and expansions to make it mesh better with the Lord of the Rings trilogy, it's definitely one of those movies that's best seen in theaters ( Read more... )

Got my test results back. Everything is normal, but I'll be constantly monitored to make sure there isn't any adrenal gland dysfunction.

Which beats surgery any day of the week.

Actually, I kid.

But I have stayed up until two AM reading fanfiction, so make of that what you will.

With my husband fishing with his dad this weekend, I've been hanging out at the Amorra TinyChat talking to the lovely ladies (and the few lads) and all in all BSing about stupid things and asploding from Amorra related feels. Don't judge me. ( Read more... )

So the crud I got in New York isn't going away, so tomorrow I'm hauling my happy ass into the walk-in clinic to make sure it hasn't developed into something worse than just a cold. The coughing has remained painfully constant, despite the rest of my symptoms clearing up in a normal amount of time. As a result my throat is often irritated and sore, ( Read more... )

Years ago I inherited a dresser. It's nothing spectacular, and if I had to guess it was built using leftover apple crates. I think it was made by my great-grandfather in the late thirties or early forties. And I still have no idea how I ended up with it. I do know that no matter how ratty the damn thing got my mother refused to get rid of it, so ( Read more... )

I've made it absolutely no secret here that I love to cook. I've posted numerous entries of either recipes or experiences in trying/making new foods ( Read more... )

My car is clean. Like, make sure you're wearing some sort of protective eyewear when you look it because it's so damn shiny.

The weather this spring has been absolute crap and I just now got a good enough forecast to allow for me to wash my car to the nth degree. My husband started early, washing his car and then doing the clay polish on it, ( Read more... )

This morning I woke up with the Queen Mother of all tension headaches. My alarm went off at seven, but I preferred to stay dead, so I turned it off and crashed for another hour and a half. By that point my body needed food (and painkiller) so I forced myself to get up and eat, downed some pain pills, and took a shower ( Read more... )

I finally finished my Avatar: The Last Airbender mood theme and got it installed yesterday. Since I'm HTML incompetent, I had to do it the long way. The whole time I was listening to Rob Paulsen's podcast and laughing manically. It was really hilarious to listen to both Billy West and Dee Bradly Baker, the latter going into Appa, Momo, and Perry ( Read more... )

It's weird, because I usually spend the first Wednesday of the month scrambling around, attempting to keep everything in order because stuff has to get done and I'm one one person and ZOMG WHY WON'T THIS DOCUMENT PRINT ( Read more... )
