"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I like the show a lot. I still look at it and think how much everyone and every place must smell like an ashtray. Apparently, they don't use real cigarettes, they use an herbal brand that tastes really gross.

I think that Glenn is creepy as hell both with the bathroom thing and the hair. I still don't get why she gave it to him. Not only was it inappropriate, she cut her own hair !! I was very happy when VK got fired. And it was so COLD. I wonder if we're going to see more of the head honcho and his wierdness.

Art Crawl!!!

Callaluna - what about removeable stickers? (I swear that they exist. At least, I'm pretty sure I've seen them.)

Yes, they do. My BFF gave them out at her son's birthday party.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

IME, as soon as a child can hold a crayon and get it to make directed contact with a piece of paper, coloring is fun.

I'm done. One more thing to cross off the list. I'm a perfectionist, so I'll keep thinking, "Well, I should have gotten that" or whatever, but I think by doing anything at all I am doing more than most people do. Most people don't bother to come up with activities for kids at weddings. I've hired two babysitters, and I have a plethora of games and activities on offer, in addition to the gift bags. I've done enough. More than most childless people would ever even think of, I suspect. I'm not going to second guess myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that sounds like plenty, seriously.

OK, so I've washed the kitchen floor and done some miscellaneous kitchen scrubbing. Next I think I'll deal with paper. I have many piles of paper, most of which I'm sure is trash. Stupid mail.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

GO JESSE. I have done none of that, but I am plotting cleaning stuff, for after I come back from errands and brunch.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, now I want to have another wedding so I can have these on top of our cake.

I'm out of big garbage bags, so at some point there will need to be errands, but I do have one clear recycling bag yet, so there you have it. Remember, Lee, I have three hours on you!

I did sleep til 9:30, which was freaking awesome, since I think I was asleep before midnight. It was a damn long week, I tell you what.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Well, I've got most of the apartment cleaned--I just have to do the kitchen floor, shake out the rugs, and possibly take the half-full bag of garbage out to the dumpster, but that can also wait. I do have some things in my car I can clean out, but I'm just reallllly tired and don't want to do much. Mom will be here in a few hours, so I've got plenty of time to Get Stuff Done. So, I'm relaxing by getting caught up here.

The cat got her claws trimmed this morning, and seemed inclined to forgive me for the horrors of stuffing her in the carrier and then being sniffed at by a Yorkie while penned up (I've never heard her hiss like that before!) until I pulled out the vacumn cleaner and started chasing her out of her hiding places.

I just checked my checking account online, and found that one of the $57 charges has been removed, the other is still pending, but another (smaller) charge for a company I'm not familiar with has been added, but without a phone number for me to contact. I'll probably wait to see if it gets zapped before changing status from pending to final, because my credit report looks pretty clean, and I can't do a customer claim on it at the bank until it changes status anyway.
