I love the kid's versions.... (poor spider, but hilarious!)

It got really really really dark out just a bit ago. No rain or storming yet, but holy crap that was sudden.

Was also really gross here. I went out bra shopping and then rapidly reconsidered when I discovered most stores' a/c were struggling to keep up. Sweaty gross plus trying on bras doesn't work.

So I got some handsoap at Bathworks (5 for $15!) and went grocery shopping.

Ooooh, here comes the lightning!

OK, that was really close. Hrm. Best go back offline. And do my nails.

Mac's song is AWESOME.

I am home after many hours of carrying broken-up cement board to a dumpster and heating and scraping old vinyl tile from our future kitchen floor, all while sweating profusely. I am now fighting a wicked sinus headache and putting off changing the litterbox. On the up side, the old kitchen floor is almost all up, whihc is very exciting and I am taking our houseguest to see Bourne Ultimatum tonight.

Robin, sounds like the house is really coming along! I know how tedious that process can be--I wish you lots of calm~ma as you continue. I can't wait to see the place when you finish! Are you taking before/after pictures?

Loving Mac's filk.

Robin, it's got to be nice to see it come together, sweatiness and all.

Well, that was fun!

From the time I posted until about 2 minutes ago, it was incredibly loud. A strike every couple of seconds, at minimum. Some were so close my body registered the shock before my brain did (close enough you hear the sizzle before the crack, even!) Haven't had that experience in a while. Given the fire engine sirens I'm hearing grind to a close nearby, a couple somethings took a solid hit.

Of course, I was out on the balcony the whole time. Only considered coming in once or twice...

Awesome.

Yay up side!

Here's what I hate about current "game shows" -- I just saw somewhere where Power of 10 is taped at the studio by my house, so I thought I'd check out the audition process. There's no auditions -- you have to send in a tape that reflects your quirky personality and hobbies and bullshit.

Why the fuck would I even need to dream about members of Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance?! Huh? Because I looked at her stupid picspacm, that's why.

Count your blessings, you could have gotten my making-out-with-Halle-Berry-at-the-Nascar-track dream from a few weeks ago. And believe me, the disturbing fact that she was Halle Berry would have translated even though the kissing a girl aspect wouldn't.

Matt's subconscious is a freaky place.

I prefer Mac's version of Itsy Bitsy Spider. Let's call it "Die, Bitsy Spider, Die!"

Owen has new Buzz Lightyear shoes for preschool and Liv has new, baby Skechers. I got a pair of white shorts for Hawaii and some tank tops.

sarameg sounds like she lives in my neighborhood. The thunder is incredible just now. Bartleby is actually trembling...which is not his way. Not sure what to do for him.

Ooh, Cashmere - you're going to Hawaii? That sounds exciting!

I would love to have a dream about the MCR boys. Please.

Yay, Eastern Market!

I got new pillows and a Brita water filter this weekend. Am now drinking Britaed water with fresh lemon juice and a little Splenda. It's like super subtle lemonade. Yum.
