UPS.com tells me my TiVo is sitting on the front porch. Now I get to worry all afternoon about whether it will still be there when I get back.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

people thinking things in my direction and then forgetting to actually tell me.
That would be my mom, yes indeed.
Yay Sophia!
I just got email from the hiring manager I sent my resume to. He wanted to let me know that the team is currently swamped under a very ugly deadline, but that he will look at resumes & contact people next week.
Aaaaaand a recruiter called & left voicemail on the home number about a position she'd like to talk to me about. I guess I should go update my six-months-out-of-date resume on Monster.com if recruiters are calling me out of the blue.
Today = very odd.

That's why I'm working from home today. I was afraid they wouldn't leave it. Or that they'd leave it and I'd never see it again.

In other random news, I was just telling Allyson that I never understood the lure of the camera phone. Until now. Because I was driving past one of those high end furniture stores on Melrose and, featured in their window display, was a very large ceramic rabbit. Like an Easter Bunny looking ceramic rabbbit. It's probably 2-3 feet tall. And I suddenly thought, "Oh god. I wish I had a camera so I could show all my friends. Right. Now."
I also really want to go in and ask how much it is. So I can laugh and leave.

I wasn't expecting mine until Monday. So, yay extra-fast TiVo for the weekend. But boo, distracting thoughts of porch thieves.

I lucked out. I happened to go to freeminimacs on Wednesday to check on the status and it suddenly said, "Order shipped." I figured it would take a few weeks for them to get it to me.
I'm feeling a lot less skeptical about these "crazy, free stuff pyramid scams" right now.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
DHL.com tells me that my new mini mac is "with delivery courier." It does not tell me where the delivery courier is.
Steve Jobs has it.

Oh do I get a free Steve Jobs with order? Because I really need someone to explain why iDVD doesn't work properly.

Be wary of the free Steve Jobs. The hardware is free, but the lifetime supply of black silk turtlenecks adds up.
