Ugh, what a day. Had to have a mammogram and fasting bloodwork done this morning so my doctor will have the results for our appointment next week. There is something wrong with the universe when a mammogram - an X-RAY, FFS - hurts more than having someone stick a needle in my arm. The tech who did my MMG gave me a whole long lecture about ( Read more... )

Okay, I admit it: I do not get the whole "Lady Gaga" thing. Sure, she's got a couple of catchy tunes, but, you know, we had that stuff in the 80's (seriously, "Poker Face" sounds like it could have come straight from 1989). Her outfits just make me wonder if either she or her costume designer is on hallucinogens. I honestly don't give a damn ( Read more... )

Random thought for the day: It is very difficult to write a story segment where your villain ruminates on Irish whiskey when you don't drink and have never even been near the stuff. And Wikipedia isn't that much help, either.

My holiday thus far:

Yesterday: Exchanged gifts with Mom - I gave her slippers, perfume, 3 pairs of socks (1 handmade, 2 not) and a watch. She gave me candy (peppermint patties OM NOM NOM), 2 oil warmers (why two? I have no idea), a scarf, a candle, and a WowWee Alive baby lion cub toy that actually blinks and makes noises. The thing even acts ( Read more... )

"The Tudors" Season 3 is out on DVD on Tuesday, and thanks to my new prescription I have a $20 gift card from Target. Eeeeeeeeee! *singsongs* I know where IIIIII'm gonna be on Tuuuuuuuuuuuuues-daaaaaay! *does happy dance*

Yes, I know it's trashy and Springer-esque and historically inaccurate. Do not care. Shut up.And speaking of the new ' ( Read more... )
