Man, this week's been long. It's only Wednesday? RAAARG.
It hasn't been unfun events, just long events. Sunday it was church and hanging out with kids (which is what they pay me to do there) and seeing Annie and getting dinner afterwards. Monday it was kids and an LotR marathon (we only made it through the first half hour of the third before there was a melt down and everyone went home) followed by a Veronica Mars marathon. Tuesday it was office-y type things, then lunch, then a movie with a kid (Horton Hears a Who) then more Veronica Mars followed by a gin tournament (the card game, not the liquor). First one to reach 10,000 points wins, loser buys lunch. Today I went to work, was downstairs in my basement office all by myself, which basically means that I farted around on the internet all day while lounging on the couch, left early because my previous days have not ended before 10 pm, farted around my apartment cleaning (broke down for more boxes! I may eventually move in!), watched some SG-1, ate dinner, etc.
It's been a lovely day. I'm anticipating tomorrow being lovely as well. Then Friday I get my hair cut and if you've seen me in RL recently, you KNOW that I need it. The gray is showing hard core and my hair is TOUCHING MY SHOULDERS. EW. Cannot WAIT. Relatedly, the gray has spread from my left temple. It is now EVERYWHERE. Sometimes it bothers me that I have gone gray so early, mostly when I have to shell out to have my hair dyed even when it's not a fun color, as right now when it is merely a slightly chestnutty brown. Other times I don't think about it.
AND OKAY SO
AMERICAN IDOL. AHAHAHAHA AMANDA OVERMYER. AMERICA HAS SPOKEN. I think Kristy Lee Cook was understandably shocked that it was not her, and I was VERY shocked that somehow Carly Smithson ended up in the bottom three, but I was decidedly pleased when it was Amanda. She was the only one I actively disliked out of those left. Other than the ones that I adore (David C, David A, Brooke and Carly) I don't really care who gets kicked off, and I'd pick both the Davids over Brooke and Carly, when it comes down to it. Although, seriously, at this point the chances of them all getting a contract are pretty good.
I have ordered Sonic the Hedgehog 2 & 3 off of half.com to go with my Genesis, which should be here Monday-ish. Some nutcase wants $1,500 (so not even a typo) for Sonic 2 on half.com. I really want to email him: "Seriously? You realize you're crazy, right?" So far I have refrained. He might actually email me back.
As to the LJ kerfuffle rocking the interwebs. I wish I had more passion to invest in caring, but I don't. It's wasted on Amanda Overmyer and the Idol contestants. I'll probably boycott on Friday because I probably won't have anything interesting to say then, and LJ will be pretty boring anyway, since I think most of my flist is on board. I don't really have any interest in jumping ship right now, but I guess I'll let you know if I do.
Uhhhh.... THAT IS ALL.
