I can't believe how unstabby I've been lately. Stressy, but not stabby. Nice!
By which I mean, sorry so stabby, paperdol.
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm torn. My head kinda hurts. It's been a long week. Do I
(a) pop some meds and go to sleep, getting up early tomorrow and Accomplishing Things?
(b) pop meds and go meet the new people I met last night at the opening night gala of the Gay and Lesbian Film Fest? (Would require energy, and friendliness, and crowds, and $30)
(c) Go try to find something to eat, bring it back home, and see what's on TV? (I get cable next Thursday, whoot!)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I vote (a) - I always vote for going to sleep when your head hurts, if possible. Unless you thinking eating will make you feel better, then (c) might be worthwhile.
Edited because my mastery of apostraphes is slipping. Gah!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Go B! Choose B!
Or choose C.

Eh. I think I'm feeling lazy enough that it's "stay awake a bit, eating food from the fridge rather than trying to find a good place for takeout" tonight.
Plei, wanna help me pick paint colors? Or, paint, tomorrow afternoon? Also, how much is a CostCo membership? Is it worth it?? What will I buy there? Can I, as a single person living alone, really use that much toilet paper or whatever? Or will I go overboard, and in a frenzy of consumerism buy seven pounds of frozen meatballs, and have to throw them out three years later, never having even opened the bag?

Ha! I have the same questions about CostCo. Someday I'm going to go in there and see if there is enough stuff to make it worth it for me.

Jilli and I are doing our hair tomorrow afternoon. :(
The Costco membership is $55. The real trick is to just have friends with cards bring you in!
Yes, I have a card.
You will have to throw the meatballs out. That's how it ALWAYS happens.
What colors are you thinking of?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Things that make Costco (et al) worth it:
- diapers (or so I hear)
- planning a huge party and needing tons of half-decent wine
- many of them sell eyeglasses
For normal groceries, for one or two housebroken people? Not worth the seven pounds of meatballs. But if you can pay off the membership with some crazy big expense, stock up on some things and then let it drop the next year.

I haven't decided on colors. May go orange for the living room. Or some sort of khaki. Red couches, you see.
Am trying to decide if I should go more for something soothing, for the bedroom, or cheerful...possibly a blue or purple-grey, for soothing. Yellow for cheerful?
Hmm. When WOULD you be free, O CostCo Enabled One?

planning a huge party and needing tons of half-decent wine
This is totally what we used to need CostCo for when I lived with two roommates and we threw parties! We go, buy mixers, wine, appetizers (those mini quiches!) and a big slab of salmon. Then we'd get ready for the party, cook up the salmon for dinner for ourselves and any early guests, and wheee, party!
I was thikning the new place will be perfect for parties, and then I was all "Ack, but I don't know enough people for a party!" Clearly, I will need to work on that.
