Bored at work
Well, I have nothing to do, so I thought I'd update the old LJ. Patsy left today at like 11, and stopped by to say she didn't have anything for me to do. So, I get to sit here on the 'net the rest of the day. Which is kinda nice, but boring at the same time.
I spent the first part of the day finishing reading all the posts in sortofbeautiful. I started a few days ago. I touched on every single entry and read all of them with very few exceptions. That is how much time I've had lately. But it was a lot of fun to read fics by people who feel the same way about the characters in the Twilight series. I have no one in my real life to discuss my love of Jacob/Bella! I don't even know if obsidianbutter read the other two books! If you haven't read this series, you really should. It is a great for what it is. I am amused at myself for getting all squishy about a character in a teen novel, but I am totally in love with Jacob. Oh yes, yes I am.
Tomorrow Dave and I are driving the missionaries to a broadcast of President Hinckley's funeral. It will be our first time stepping in the church since...last May I think. Church starts at 1:30 now, so it would be more than feasible for us to start going again...meh.
I finished a month of paper-journalling. That means one month down, only 11 to go! I can do this! I haven't missed a day yet. I'm really excited about this still. Which is a good thing. Though, some of my entries are ultra lame, but at least I'm writing in them.
Wow...I really don't have anything to talk about. I work. I journal. I read. That's my life right now. Oh, Dave found a guy who wants to buy Kyle's old jeep. So, in the next couple weeks, we are going to try and get down to Farmington to get it and bring it up here. It'll be a quick down and back trip. It'll be good though because we can stop at grandma's and get Mom the piano we were supposed to bring at Christmas.
I was sick this week and actually took a day off to go to the doctor. Of course, I couldn't stop there. So I spent two hours at the vet waiting my turn to get the dogs vaccinated. Then I went home and slept for the rest of the day. But, it was good I got their shots; they were past due. And now, this week's karaoke money can go to getting Missy groomed. Her fur is out of control. And she just has way too much for me to be able to deal with. So, I'm going to waste the money to get her looking like a dog again. And then, sometime in the sorta-near future, I'm going to sign her up for obedience classes.
I truly realized yesterday that I have no real life friends that share the same "fandoms" with me. I don't know anyone else in real life that likes Dark Angel. While Krista is the one who game me Twilight, I don't think she is as into it as I have become. No one else I know in real life watches Lost or Heroes. It just kinda sucks to not have anyone to talk about all this stuff that I really enjoy.
I should look into joining a book club. It woudn't be the same as what I really want, but at least then I'd have something in common with some real people!
