I want Instant Gratification, and I want it now.

Here’s a shock to anyone who’s known me for more than oh, seventeen seconds: I’m into instant gratification. Case in point: See my love for impulse shopping. But it’s not all that bad. I do consider the consequences. And when I choose to go ahead with said gratification, it’s with the foresight that the consequences [...]

oh god..

why must I feel so vile? why? Wait… what was that last post? Oh yeah. blargh.

so, SO drunk.

three thank yous for Jeremy, while I’m still coherent enough to mention them: one: for letting me talk incoherently about stuff on my mind. awesome. two: for pulling over so I could vomit. Yeah, I’m a classy broad. there are very few people that this wouldn’t completely humiliate me. thank god, Jeremy’s one of them. [...]

Sure, I can survive on 4 hours of sleep.

Aka, you look like a dork in that white coat, hey what’s with the straitjacket? So I got home last night around 11:30. This was rather dumb as I had things I wanted to get done (like that laundry situation that hasn’t improved), but worth it anyway. Then I stayed up later trying to do [...]

The Underwear Affair: Because Ritual Humiliation is a great way to fight cancer.

Recap for those not in the know: Last year, I walked 5k around Vancouver in my underwear and raised $735 to help fight cancers below the waist — you know, the embarrassing ones that nobody wants to talk about. This year… well, I’m still hoping to run the 10k. But … I’m not quite there [...]

The dog days of summer

Justice & I went on an adventure today! Ok, not so much of an adventure, but I’m exhausted, my back hurts, I’ve got a few extra scratches from mis-aimed nails, and she’s totally worn out. It seems that Monday nights, a group of strange people in heavy armor gather at the Cloverdale fairgrounds to beat [...]

An update to the heat

Man, I sure picked the wrong day to wear the weak, non-cancer/Alzheimer’s causing deodorant. Let this be an official apology to all of my coworkers. Generally, this stuff cuts it just fine. Not so much when it’s 30 freaking degrees in here.

help, I’m melting!

I just got off the phone with our property management company. She asked if I’d noticed the lack of air conditioning. Surprisingly, yes! The fact that it’s only 10:30 and I’m sweltering did not escape my notice. On Saturday, there was a near-fire in the ventilation system, which is one of those Bad Things, and [...]

Only partially caffeinated

I have some rambles. Be warned, I’m only halfway through my cinnamon dolce latte (first one in AGES, and it was my reward for doing something that I’m hoping will come about as nice for someone else, but was difficult for me to do — am still not healthy & in shape enough to be [...]

Well… now what?

I’m bored. For the last … what, month and a half, two months? I’ve spent every spare moment (and several un-spare moments) studying my ass off. Now it’s Sunday night, and … I’m bored. Hrm. Oh, there’s a zillion things I COULD be doing — my laundry, for example, is starting to request that I [...]
