Sunday Morning Dogs

Poor Justice. I think she’s getting a little fed up with this interloper. Every time she has something nice, Jasper wants it. And since he’s a pushy little guy, he comes up and takes it. And because Justice is evidently a giant suck, she lets him, and then looks sad for a while, and goes [...]

Doing the Math

Sometimes, I think cell phone companies are math challenged.
I currently pay about $40-50/m and have a year and a half left on my contract.
I’d like to upgrade to an iPhone. This will increase my bill to about $70-80ish/month. I am willing to EXTEND my contract for another 3 years on top of that. [...]

I love my netbook.

Dear Blog: Cute boy on train still ignoring me.

Not going to die, not going to die, not going to die…

So this morning, I got up bright and early so I could take the bus into town with Nick and get in early to the hospital only to realize that drop-ins didn’t start until 10:15. Bah. So, I hung out at Starbucks and drank copious amounts of coffee while reading We Need To Talk About [...]

Priorities

Well. At least I’ll look good when I’m forced to live under a bridge.
The downside to a mild latex fetish, and a slightly less mild costume fetish? Latex is fucking expensive.
Anyway, so a few weeks ago, the Marmot mentioned she was making an order from Twist My Rubber Arm, and did I want to [...]

Is this what it’s like to have children?

I now understand an aspect of parenting I wasn’t expecting.
So, Nick & I were getting a little frisky this morning. (I suppose if we DID have children, we wouldn’t be getting frisky in the livingroom on a Saturday morning to begin with, but still. Work with me here.) We’re just getting into it, and [...]

We come from a long line of voodoo witches

I think my mother’s a witch.
No, not the “omg, she’s such a wretched person” kind of witch. The kind that has control over weather and flying monkeys and can turn you into a toad.
So, this morning I called my mother. Not usually reason for a blog post, except I had to call her [...]

Bring it, 2009

2008: Brought me Nick. Thanks, 2008.
See you next year. It’s gonna be even better.

Uncharitable thought of the day: Well, that’s why you work at Future Shop.

So I was at Future Shop on Friday night, doing a little Christmas shopping (shocking). I picked up a [redacted] for [Never You Mind], which had to be retrieved from a salesperson directly so they could go in the little back room and get it. Fine. So the kid comes out, and he can’t be [...]

Reminder: Christmas Craft Day today!

Come over and make crafts! Note: Low key, don’t worry about when you feel like showing up, I’ll be here all day.
