Those of you who know my best friend
silvertedy -- her bunny Ashes is very, very sick (so sick that Silvertedy's not here at work today so she can take her to the vet). Ashes has had some health problems for a while, but seems to have taken a bad turn. Any positive energy you can send her way would be wonderful. I'm worried about Silver and Ashes. I'm also worried about Smoke, the other bunny. The two of them are pretty attached to each other. *sigh*
In more uplifting news... I look adorable today. I'm not too modest to admit that I'm having great hair for the second day in a row. This is a minor miracle since I'm letting it grow out right now. I'm wearing my new red converse sneakers and my Dr. Suess fishbowl t-shirt (it has the fish leaping from the bowl saying "Don't make me come over there!"). Very managerial, not. But cute. Definitely cute and that's all that matters.
In slightly bizarre news, I had a dream last night that I was a girl who cross-dressed (for the purpose of passing) as a boy and then got all dragged up as a goth girl. WTF?? And I was dating a boy who cross-dressed as a girl and got all dragged up as a goth boy. Again, I say WTF?? The best part though is that (except for the goth part), it's probably the best way I've ever come up with the verbalize my personal gender issues -- girl who wanted desperately to be a boy who could choose to dress up as a girl. Don't ask.
In semi-related news ... Chris and I were watching CSI on SpikeTV Wednesday night. The ep was "Fur and Loathing" and featured a victim who was into the whole Plushies and Furries scene. Of course, there's a PAF Con in Vegas. Chris was blown away and apparently a little concerned that I was at least a tiny bit familiar with the PAF scene (familiar meaning it wasn't a totally foreign concept, but knowledge pretty much ends with knowing of it). So he says, "That's your thing, isn't it? You're not going to DragonCon again. I don't know what's going on down there." I bust out laughing and say, "Oh yeah, I'm a furry. Right dear," and roll my eyes. He replies, "You're probably a teddy bear or something, right?" Now that pissed me off. My response? "Hello?!? If I were going to dress up in a furry animal costume, you know damn well I'd be a moose." Nod. "And where the hell am I gonna hide a moose costume in this little house." His response? "You probably keep it at Silvertedy's." Of course, when I told Silvertedy about this, she cracked up laughing.
And in news related to that, is anyone going to Connexions? I was thinking about going and I'm running out of time to register. It's just up the road, so I don't even need to get a hotel room (although if I go, I probably will so I can drink and not have to drive my ass home after). Should I go?
And finally ... back to 'perversions'. My morning radio guys were doing the Michael Jackson trial update this morning and one of them mentioned buying Thriller on CD. So, of course, they had to play an intro clip to the report and then an out-clip after. So they played "Wanna Be Starting Something" and then "Billie Jean". That was cool, I can admit to liking some of MJ's old stuff. But then Kirk said Thriller was pre-pervert days. And Mark countered with "PYT" which he claims is all about boys. So they played it and now I have those lyrics in my head. So I leave you with a little "PYT" to make your day as wonderful as mine:
I wanna love you (PYT)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (TLC)
Tender loving care
And I'll take you there
