MONDAY: Monday, Monday, Monday. Monday was a day of Getting Things Done. On Monday, I submitted my latest short story-fetchingly titled "Dying With Her Cheer Pants On" (although I sadly suspect that even the most tolerant of editors may ask me to change to one of the possible alternate titles, because I am not James Tiptree)-to the anthology it ( Read more... )

As if your brain is not crowded enough, I give you swine flu coverage!

The swine flu is making me tragically happy. Not normal, but there you go.

Some people live lives of quiet desperation.

I haven't managed to get the desperation part working, but I've got the rest of it working just fine.

Fisherman's Wharf is where you can learn what the sea lion language for "get your (&*^$)$# foot out of my eye!" sounds like.

Absolutely true.

You're bad, you know that? There are now so many things in life that once, I never would have thought twice about.

Now? I see them and go "SEANAN!"

Bit by bit, I am taking over everyone's consensual reality and replacing it with a construct of my own.

Took little sister to movies and lunch, worked much of the overtime, and am now listening to large crowds of angry drunken teenagers beat each other up right under my window. This is to remind me why I don't like the nasty flesh-on-flesh thunk, isn't it?

Your week sounds fun though. ^^ Especially the goat. Goat is good.

Yes. There was some concern that you were about to start beating elephants, and you had to be stopped before you started.

What movie?

alexwearspants April 30 2009, 04:06:28 UTC

Monsters vs. Aliens. She enjoyed it, and there was enough of the silliness/adult-aimed jokes to keep me happy too. ^^ Only problem being now the littler one demands to be taken to see a movie too. Which isn't exactly a problem, it's just that the younger they are the more nervous I get about taking full responsibility for them out in the wide bad world. ^^

(And, look, I wasn't going to beat them. They were lovetaps, ok? Lovetaps! They've got thick skins! They can take it! ... Anyway, they were asking for it.

How do y'all keep getting in my head anyway??)

That's totally understandable; I'm the same way with my various nieces and nephews.

I heartily recommend waiting and taking her to Up. Pixar is always awesome for the smallest of people.
