(no subject)
1. I got felt up today. XD Don't get excited, it wasn't anything good. XDDD I was helping this woman with pictures, and she had her... ah, probably one year old ish son in the shopping cart. He was being loud and obnoxious, but I tried to ignore him anyway. Next thing I knew he was grabbing my boob! XDDDD So yeah, that was fun. I got felt up by a baby.
2. Another thing that happened at work today, but this amused me- I was ringing out an asian woman who had a small daughter, maybe two or three years old, absolutely adorable. She said the little girl's name a couple of different times when trying to talk to her- her name was Ai Ling. *hearts* I don't know how common a name that is in other places, but I've never met anyone in real life with that name. It amused me greatly.
3. Windows started up the first time. Apparently, it was having an issue with a scrapbook program I'd installed... Microsoft also finally told me the (supposed) reason why my computer keeps restarting itself- the graphics driver is out of date and needs updating. So I've done that now... we'll see if that actually fixes the problem or not.
4. It's officially December 11. I think it's time to really freak out about the things I have due now. I need to stay home tomorrow and writewritewrite. Definitely. That is... after possibly going out with Stef for a bit. XD Harry Potter 5 comes out on DVD today, and we have a bit of a tradition when those movies come out- we go and each purchase a copy, we pick up something for lunch, and then we come back to my house to eat and watch the movie while making commentary the whole time. It's a lot of fun. XD And really, there's a lot to make fun of this time around. XDDD It's supposed to storm tomorrow afternoon, though, so we'll see what happens.
5. Guh. Firefox is being fussy today. It's frozen on me twice now. >_<
6. *giggles* Random conversations are fun. Jet and I were talking about the candy canes I sent out with the greeting cards for you guys, and then...
Verloren918: Though I will say that I tried one of the pineapple ones that nobody wanted, and they're actually quite good. XD
Jet Draconis: That's good. XD I just shy away from fake pineapple.
Verloren918: *laughs* It's okay, you weren't the only one. Everybody else on the survey was like "Yeah, um, NO." XD
Verloren918: And I was going, "What? I'm the only one curious about the pineapple candy canes?" "......Yes, you freak."
Jet Draconis: XDDDD
Verloren918: *gigglesnorts* Well, it was more implied than actually stated. XD
Jet Draconis: Just think of it as you being the most adventurous XD
Verloren918: XDDD
Verloren918: Hey, try (almost) anything once, I say. Of course there are limits... Jet Draconis: Right. My limit is pineapple candy canes. XD
Verloren918: *dies*
7. Hmm. I've never actually used the calendar feature before now. It apparently has it's uses! ^_^;;; A meme from
aiwritingfic:
Go back in your LJ and post the first meaningful sentence or two from each month (in other words, skip the meme crap).
January: Happy 2007! I have absolutely NO idea why I'm still awake. I have to be to work in freaking five hours, and I'm sitting here fucking around on the computer. *sigh*
February: I.... am a moron. Instead of doing laundry last night, what was I doing? I was too attached to "Talon of the Silver Hawk" and didn't realize how late it was until I finished it and discovered quite unpleasantly that it was 7:30 a.m.
March: I just went into the bathroom for a potty break and noticed in the mirror that my cheeks have adopted this interesting pink color. Why? I'm working on that Hikago smutfic-of-DOOM. [It should probably be noted that this ended up being "Hanging By A Moment", the blind_go 3 entry.]
April: It just occurred to me that the scene I'm working on adding to the beginning of the blind_go piece makes my fic even more recognizable. *headdesk* Ah, well. I don't really care if I get guessed, to be honest- it would be cool if I wasn't (not to mention a MIRACLE), but I'm not going to go out of my way to disguise anything, either.
May: I'm going to strangle my cousin: she told my little sister about Jay going to prison. *headdesk* Now this will give Kelly even MORE fuel for her "stories."
June: Please note that I did not fall off the face of the earth. I also have not left LJ. The fact is that LJ hates me and wouldn't allow me to post- AT ALL, on either journal- for almost a week.
July: The "During Work" List 1. Ouch. Just ouch. I've had the headache from hell all day today... I took a bunch of ibprofen and the pain has been dulled a bit (because being able to actually function at work is good), but it's still not anything pleasant. Gah.
August: Anybody else having a problem with Rich Text mode? I still can't get it to come up. Weird.
September: *headdesk* Put the Ben and Jerry's DOWN, Ver. Honestly. *rolls eyes at self* You don't need it. You shouldn't have even gotten it from the grocery store. The little voices in your head that tell you to purchase these things? They are bad, Ver, BAD. You shouldn't listen to them.
October: Damn. I need to get my stuff out of the living room before I can go to bed. Guh.
November: I feel like there's so much I should be doing right now... I need to work on packing. I need to get some music back on my MP3 player. I need to write, because I owe ZOMGSOMUCHFIC and not having a computer is absolutely no excuse.
December: I fail at anime. Here is proof.
