    Um.

    So. Yeah. It’s late, I’m crashing, and I’ve got nothing whatsoever to say. Didn’t sleep well last night, so I slept in pretty late today. That, of course, set the tone for today, which means I accomplished absolutely nothing. Oh well, that has its advantages as well. Still got nothing. Laundry tomorrow, and I’ve got to study for a government test that’s coming up. So. Well, that was boring. But it wasn’t a meme, at least! Zzzzzzzzzz.

    Seinfield post

    So. It’s Day 5 of NaBloPoMo and already I’m at a loss for something to post. I’m gonna blame it on having class today and not getting home until late afternoon, and on being up way too late last night. :D You know, lots of times I think “hey, I should post about that” but then I never remember to actually do it. I ought to make notes or something. It’s not like I don’t have nifty gadgets to do it with. ==== Rob’s birthday was today, so he wanted Thai. He’s also off the rest of the week, so…

    Movies, Hotdogs, and Books

    Since the one year I tried NaNoWriMo I managed to write myself into a corner in less than 100 words, I’ve decided to instead sign up for NaBloPoMo! I did manage posting every day for one month a couple of years ago, so I should be able to do it again. Visit NaBloPoMo Anyway, Halloween was nice. Apparently the neighborhood does manage to observe the “no lights, no candy” custom, so no one knocked on the door. This left us free to watch the movies that y’all chose for us! :D First up was Plan 9 from Outer Space. It…

    Amusing moment

    The husband is playing Saint’s Row and is driving down the sidewalk mowing down pedestrians like bowling pins. It’s… slightly disturbing. :D Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there.

    I feel glad when you're glad…

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. I had a dream last night. It was all very complicated and bizarre and fun, but the part I actually remember enough to describe is the very end. For some reason, Randy Travis showed up to tell me something, and I got his autograph. Then I woke up with a Barry Manilow song in my head. My brain is confusing.

    Still alive! No, really…

    Wow, so I haven’t been posting lately. I’ve posted maybe a hundred times in my head – but my brain/intarweb interface isn’t working properly. School! I’ve been going to school! I’m trying to wrap my head around this whole “homework” thing – it’s been about an eon since I’ve “studied”. This semester (which is almost over) I’m taking English Composition I, US History I, and Spanish I. Next term, it’s all the same stuff, only “II”. Ah well, after that I should be able to take more varied classes. Spanish I is kicking my ass. So far, I’ve got a…

    This and that

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix was great! And speaking of Harry Potter, since there’s some spoiler hints even on CNN, it’s time for me to pull the plug. From /. – “Salon reports that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been leaked four days before it hits bookstores. It turns out that someone with access to the American edition of the book has taken a photograph of every one of the pages and made them available via bittorrent. Publishers may well be quaking in their…

    We are here. We are waiting.

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. Transformers is a totally awesome move. If you’ve got a theater like Alamo Drafthouse, you’ve got to go see it. Heck, even if you’re stuck with an inferior theater, go see it. Was it true to the comic and/or cartoon? Hellifiknow. But it was very good. Tuesday we’re going to the Harry Potter feast, then Thursday we’re going to see some bats! Hope it doesn’t rain…

    It's in what??

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. So I’ve been trying to read food labels more lately; basically trying to avoid food from China, and high fructose corn syrup. My $DEITY, that crap is in everything. I’m also less enamored of artificial sweeteners too. Jif peanut butter? HFCS. I bought organic. Hope I like it. Smuckers jelly? HFCS. I bought HEB brand More Fruit – it’s got a minimum of ingredients. The husband likes Smart Start cereal. High Fucking Fructose Corn Syrup. o_O I bought him Cap’n Crunch Crunch Berries instead – fewer calories, less sodium,…

    Busy month

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. June is turning out to be a busy month! Well, busy for us, that is. :) Got the garage door opener and water heater installed, two vet appointments so far – old cat and kitten stuff. This week is a long overdue hair appointment on Tuesday; a delivery of more media storage on Wednesday, as well as the Princess Bride Quote-Along; and Saturday is a Drew Curtis (FARK) book signing at BookPeople. If that weren’t enough, I get to go to the circus later this month as well! I’ve…
