Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I like it. Makes me think of Mafia movies. Dean Martin, too. I wonder what he would think about that...whether he would think it was funny or get put out that songs like that make me think..."I know this one. Goodfellas! Right?"
Happy Birthday Kristen!!
happy birthday Kristen
I did 5 hours of work at the coffee shop, bored out of my ever-loving mind. I don't think there's anything worse than editing a document that is full of the same damn copy-and-paste errors, over and over and over again. And I didn't finish, but see above, re: bored.
I stopped at the bookstore on the way home to order Rachel Manija Brown's All the Fishes Come Home to Roost (some of y'all may know her from LJ), and they have a signed copy in the back they will unpack for me tomorrow, so yay.
And it's sunny out and when I opened my mail I found an invitation to a launch party for a city-funded book I got a piece accepted to. My first launch party! (Okay, so the piece is all of 1,500 words, but still!) ::throws tinsel in the air::
Now I'm going to take a nap. And then have tea.
Whoops- and Happy Birthday Kristen!
yay for 'suela!!!
Thanks, Robin, I'll suggest she think along those lines.
yay Consuela!
And birthday Kristen!
( I kinda wish these things silently, to avoid empty otherwise posts. But hey, I have content!)
My cats don't like wet carpet. They start to walk on it, get this weird look on their faces, then back up to skirt the edges. I've got fans blowing on it, but I hope it dries quickly. Have the a/c and dehumidifier running, but a, wearing long sleeves, pants and a sweater bathrobe. Kinda chilly.
See? Content.
I broke down and washed my hair for the third time today. First was wakeup shower. Must have. Second was salon. Third...apparently aveda products are still giving me headaches. Which is sad, because I like the smell, just...not for more than a couple hours. I can deal with lavender (one of the main smelly components, I think, and one I use at home without problems) but something else in them just is a nasty trigger of some sort.
So, I walked all over the city today with the parents, which was good, but now I'm EXHAUSTED, due also to not nearly enough sleep last night. But it was fabulous weather, and we had a lovely time, even though we failed to get the cheap Wicked tickets. Also found the perfect midtown afternoon snack place that I really really hope I remember about the next time I have that issue.
