'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Virgin Mobile (Australian, only) does this for cell phone calls.Want. Not that I am in the habit of doing this but it only takes once.
There was a bad accident a few hours ago and the freeway home and the alternate are so massively frelled that I am just sitting here hitting the refresh button on the traffic page. Where are you my friendly green dots? Why have you forsaken me and sent red in your place?
Gris, if it'll make you feel better I did that completely sober. I had nothing to blame but me, and that stupid voice that said "Hey, I (almost( died twice!"
Gris, I'm sorry you got rejected. At least you can stop torturing yourself, I guess. (Bandaid theory.)
My brother didn't bother to call or send a card for my dad's birthday. he also missed mom's birthday and father's day last month. (He flunked out of school this semester. My parents freaked out, so I understand why he's laying a little low, but this is getting excessive.) I'm roughly equal measures of annoyed with him and concerned something is actually wrong.
OK, y'all have corrupted me. I just spent $50 at Sephora--mostly on Photo Finish in the green color (me being one of those pink people)
The only thing in the envelope was a slip of paper with an odd resemblence to a raffle ticket, telling me that both of them had made pre-arrangements for cremation with the Neptune Society
OK, I first read this as they'd made arrangements for YOU to be cremated. Which is way more creepy.
Oh! I lovee the "wary squeak" picture of CuteHeadBabyGirl.
You Lefty-Catholic Californian, you. *MWAH*
I second that emotion! Especially after the breakfast I went to this morning, with a few queer alums and the VP of Student Affairs and the VP of Public Affairs, talking about how we can make my old university a better place for queers (students, faculty, alums), and thereby encourage us to give them lots of our money. I was invited on Wednesday, when they finally figured out how to get ahold of me--they wanted a token girl to be there. :)
Drunken people should not be allowed access to email.
Heh. Yessssss. We all learn this eventually. Or sometimes know it and still don't manage to learn this.
Huh. I got a response. For some reason, I didn't even consider that reactio
Dude, that's what increases the pain of drunk emailing, waiting for the response...
Yep. It's the only thing that will remove my mascara and eyeliner o' dooooooom!
::tries to imagine Jilli without mascara and eyeliner. Fails.::
I'm going to have all my swing coats mended and cleaned, and just go for a classic 50s retro look
meep

I'm roughly equal measures of annoyed with him and concerned something is actually wrong.Will there be recriminations when he does sort of return to the family? Because if I hermit for a while, there is hell to pay. Which makes me usually stretch it out a little longer. I hope there is only cause to be annoyed with him.
Now playing: "Transmission" - Joy DivisionYou pour salt in my cd cut and then you say this. Taciturn man.
I got home in about an hour and a half. Which sucked, but I found a new way to go when both freeways are frelled at least.
And (flashing lights) apparently JackAssDave either quit or was fired earlier today. I am stunned. This might change things for me at work.

Heya.
Interesting night so far. Was nice and stood in line for a Guthrie ticket because a friend couldn't make it in time to be at the top of the rush line (it's selling out, go fig). Ended up having a drink with said friend - MP - who is nice and sweet and hyper and talks a mile a minute. He's also very insightful and very snarky, and is happy to call me on things, but then flits off to another topic before there can be either an explanation or further questioning. He wondered why I've been morose over the past months and why I'm changing/revamping my look and why I'm never content to sit and enjoy what I have.
And then I went and saw a play - Empty Plate at the Cafe du Grand Boeuf - on an empty stomach. When the major plot of the play revolves around a description of a sumptuous 7-course meal, you should eat beforehand.
Soon, I'm going to go back to the G and hang with Z & MP. I can't decide whether or not to tell MP that I felt a little... attacked... earlier. I don't know if I'll have the change to explain that properly.

Honestly? I think he's making things worse by staying away. My parents are probably pretty much done being pissed with him over the college thing, but right now he's just letting them stew and obsess on it -- he needs to give them new information so they have other things to think about, and he can start rebuilding their confidence in him. (Background: This is not the first time he has flunked out of college. He's not unintelligent, he just doesn't do the work.)
Not acknowleding their birthdays, especially, strikes me as being disrespectful and tacky.
Hi! I'm home! I haven't read anything though, I skipped like a mofo.
Tom says I'm being rude.
Hec, Tom made me laugh and it made me think of you. He said the following to me (I refuse to tell you the circumstances because I've been scolded enough, thankyew.)
"Why does your brain hate your heart so much?"
(it was a nutritional situation)
(Teppy, I spent a lot of time in VT this past week and have many recs for places you will probably have no time to visit.)
RIO!!!!!
Lilty, I don't know perzactly the situation but I know that you weren;t lame and eeeeee! will you come for the JZ BBQ next weekend (yes, I know I haven't invited you yet, since when has good manners deterred me from demanding ANSWERS RIGHT NOW???)
AWESOME BBQ LINK OF THE CENTURY: [link] (please to click) (or this one) [link] (he's not very net savvy) (but makes the best ribs EVAH)
Will return soon. betcha can't wait.
