This has never happened before and will probably not happen again for quite a long time. Tuesday night I was playing Scrabble with the Felon. I may be a good speller with a decent vocabulary, but I have no strategy skills when it comes to Scrabble. As such, I usually lose, but not that night ( Read more... )

Vacation...yayz!

I watched Little Miss Sunshine on Tuesday and I quite liked enjoyed it. It's definitely weird and off-beat, but ultimately a rather sweet film. The end made me a little bit sniffly, but I have been hormonal all week, so that may account for something ( Read more... )

Air Max Assail: the method by which a certain kitten annoys his older sister or a running shoe?

Both actually ( Read more... )

Once again, I have learned something tonight (once again, it's still Saturday on the West coast!): in the event that I am standing in a puddle of hazardous silver-bearing waste chemicals, wearing a large, purple apron, holding a large roll of paper towels with a thick pair of rubber gloves on my hands, and a look of utter horror upon my face, ( Read more... )

Latest obsession: root beer floats.

One can only take in those Sonic commercials for their root beer floats for so long before one breaks. Unfortunately, there are no Sonic restaurants in this area (even though they keep running ads for them on basic cable...I think I saw about fifty spots during the Ghost Hunters marathon last week). Actually, ( Read more... )

I am eternally dense. It happens every time. For a few days the old tum just isn't right and fills me with angst and I ponder the possible causes that range all the way from, "Did I eat something out of the usual recently" to, "OMG!!!![Insert deadly illness here]!!!"* Then, She arrives and it all makes sense. I wish she'd leave. She's such a bad ( Read more... )

Okay, the Christmas music has finally infiltrated my home. It's been playing at work since November 24th, but I can't really hear it too well in the lab. Otherwise, I haven't listened to anything Christmas-y. So, officially, the Holiday Tunes folder has been imported into iTunes and made into a playlist. Apparently there was one other holiday song ( Read more... )

Last Friday the Felon called my lyrical knowledge of the song "If I Had $1,000,000" into question. Specifically, as I sang along to the tune, the lines, "If I had $1,000,000, I'd buy you furniture for your house...maybe a nice Chesterfield or an ottoman." Um, I have been known to mess up a few lyrics here and there, but not this song. I might also ( Read more... )

Obie kaybie. First of all, El Douchebag was about 50% less of a douchebag last night then he was all last week ( Read more... )

Last night I was so absolutely dead tired that by the time I crawled into bed I couldn't even keep my eyes open long enough to pull the blankies up over me. I'd only gotten a few hours of sleep before I had to work in the morning so I was exceptionally tired all day...butt tired even. My tiredness did not prevent me from winning two games of ( Read more... )
