Okay, so

They're testing the fire alarms in our building today. Racetrack? Does not approve. I have found this out in a very painful manner.

But that's not the reason for this post.

I was talking with one of my coworkers about Lord of the Rings a few days ago, and a comment he made reminded me of a story that I read years ago. As much as I love the books ( Read more... )

I was woken up this morning by the sound of a loud crash somewhere outside of my bedroom. Followed by another smaller crash. And then the sound of a stampeding water buffalo running down the hallway from

Well, the wisdom teeth are no longer in my mouth, and I think they've finally stopped bleeding enough that I can take out the gauze. I'm not going to try eating anything for another hour or so, just to make sure the worst of the bleeding's over, but hey. If nothing else, it's not gushing blood anymore ( Read more... )

Well, Vividcon's over again until next year. I had an awesome time, as usual, and I'll be typing up a con report as well as a list of recs sometime over the next few days. Which should be easy because I'm working a scarily small amount of hours this week, but that's a post for another time as well.Anyway, I do have a reason for this post. Other ( Read more... )

If any of you haven't been reading my tweets (or inlovewithnight's earlier post), Night and I are lucky enough to be in the part of DC that has no power. It's been thirty hours now since our electricity went out, and Pepco basically has no idea when it's going to be fixed. The last I heard, they were telling people Thursday wouldn't be out of the question ( Read more... )

I'm off work tonight and tomorrow, which means having Thursday and Friday off is apparently my new regular schedule at least for the time being. At the moment, I'm home alone with nobody but an insane cat who I swear is plotting my death Racetrack to keep me company. I've had a drink or five, and I expect to have more before the night's out ( Read more... )

I have a lot of bookcases in my room. Three of them are side by side, two five-shelves and one three-shelf. Racetrack will jump on top of the three-shelf and then spring up to the top of the five-shelves ( Read more... )

There's a slight possibility that I might have just given poor inlovewithnight a heart attack.

... oops?

In my defense, I didn't mean to do it. I was taking a nap when she got home from work, and she thought that I wasn't here. So when I woke up and wandered into the kitchen to say "hello," she wasn't exactly expecting it.

Personally, I say that we blame ( Read more... )

Right now, it looks like I'm going to be flying back to Tennessee sometime tomorrow morning. I'm waiting until I hear something official from my family before I make any definite plans, though.

In other news, my backpack is moving on its own. Remind me to check it for unexpected naked Jack angry Racetrack in the morning before I leave.
