Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's not the premiere tonight, is it?

Next week.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Today, yes, more walking, but I think this started before. No new shoes. Sharp pain when it's there. No swelling. I was thinking that the connecty bits were poppier on that ankle, but I'm not sure.

I'm at a loss. I'd probably go to a doctor, though, if it is popping and hurting a lot.

Heh. For the GFL crowd, anything LC created a fuss. Most was filmed in Deming, I think, but still. We knew! That wasn't a _____. Another thing I realized, googling images? I liked the clothes I wore in '92/93. Might not wear them now (a little young for me, but still!)

Timelies,

In the more boring details about Kalshane's job woes news, it looks like this is my last night on the this shift. Starting Monday I get the oh-so-thrilling schedule of 3am-12:30pm Su-Th. (Have no clue how I'm going to arrange my sleep schedule for that one.) But at least it will be at the local office, so no more 45 mile commutes each way. We're also supposed to be finally getting switched to hourly, which is good since the new schedule gives us a 45 hour work week. Too late for this BS, but at least it's a start. And yes, I'm still planning on working on and sending out my resume tomorrow.

I was talking with a co-worker tonight about the whole ordeal and he suggested asking my boss to nominate me for an employee award. There's a large company-wide budget of money to award those who "go above and beyond" and us in IT rarely get them because everyone just plain expects us to go above and beyond as part of our job. But working a completely different shift with little notice, at a different location and learning all the duties required to cover that shift in two days should certainly qualify. It won't be nearly the amount I should have gotten for the overtime, et al, but at least it's something. I'm going to call and ask my boss about it tomorrow when I wake up. We'll see what he says.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yeah. Thanks. If it doesn't get better soon, I may well do that.

Art Crawl!!!

No, not the premiere. . . but it was the one with the family in the carwreck on the way to the babyshower -- I wept and wept. Now they're playing the one with Vinnie Van Lowe from Veronica Mars. Guess they're not going to repeat the finale before the premiere.

Oh good lord. My cat just peed on his foot. So I had to rinse him off in the sink. I mean, he's geriatric and all, but good grief. This was just feline stupidity.

Is it wrong of me to laugh at your cat and his aiming issues?

Now tagless for your comfort.

If anyone's going to be in Pittsburgh this weekend, there is a Pretty Scary Film Festival going on.

My friend in Cleveland ran into a girl who makes horror films--this woman commented on my friend's Innsmouth Swim Team hoodie at Trader Joe's and told her about the film festival.

I'm so tempted to drive over there with her.

I am annoyed to be checking a bag for a two-day trip, but I need hair product! I don't know how meara does it anymore.

Hah! With much difficulty. But I've either been checking a bag (and cursing the extra time it takes) or going to CVS and buying travel size shit when I get there--but you can't really get hair gel, or nice facial moisturizer, so I'm still figuring it out. Which is to say...

don't know, have we seen her hair recently? We've already had disturbing reports on the state of Vortex's lips. Will nobody think of the foamy???!??

My hair has been somewhat sad lately. But usually I've not been anywhere where I care how I look, lately. I had to check a bag to go to Toronto, though. Had to look good. :)

Hint, though: if you put the chapstick in your pants pocket, it will not set off the metal detector, and the TSA will likely never know...(actually I think you can have chapstick now, just not vaseline or lip gloss). And the "essential" K-Y just makes me crazy. Also, flight attendants who are allowed to walk through the security line with a big thing of Starbucks. NOT FAIR!

Starting Monday I get the oh-so-thrilling schedule of 3am-12:30pm Su-Th

Wow, that's...somewhere between a super crappy schedule, and "not as bad as it could be". I mean, hard to get used to sleeping for that, but OTOH, you should be able to run errands after work, or sleep all afternoon so that you can go out with friends at night, if you want...

Also, I said it in Bitches, but have to share here too: I was like, ten feet away from Pierce Brosnan and Liam Neeson at the Toronto airport earlier tonight!! Liam Neeson is very tall. Pierce Brosnan is very hot.
