Susan, asking ahead of time to smell it is totally the thing you think of right after the appointment, and totally forget by the next appointment. Human nature. :)
OK. Have been to the gym. Have been to the pharmacy. Have applied for a job. Have talked to the unemployment people (because of course, they FUCKED UP MY CLAIM, but it should be easily fixed). Have set up temp job for rest of the week and next week.
And now I'm like "dang, the temp job will pay for my trip to mexico, but what the heck did I do that for? Now I have to go to work all day!"
awww I spilled 2/3 of my Indian-leftover-lunch all over the office carpet and (carpeted) wall. It looks like they filmed The Exorcist in here and that was all we had left of the delicious eggplant. Sad now. I'll have to get the swedish meatballs at Ikea later to cheer me up.
the kind you find in a second hand store...
I am home. Slept in till noon. Watched the final 2 episodes of Angel. OMG the water works when Smurfette asked "do you want me to lie for you now". Damn fine writing. OK, what series do I get hooked on now?
Now I'm catching up on TV recorded for two weeks. Oy. almost ran out of HD space.
I'm not doing any chores. One day of rest. Fuck chores. I'm resting. Done some reading. Some movies. Now some TV. Thankfully there are some foods in the fridge.

I'll second that!! Another fairly recent fave is
Rome.
Doctor Who! Robin Hood! Shameless!
I need to step away from Salon letters. There's a ridiculous amount of rancor toward vegans there that I really don't need to waste my time trying to understand.
GC, in helping my friend clean her house, I came across a bunch of
Gloomcookie
comics and thought of you.
Aw, that's nice. Also the early
Gloomcookie
comics (with Ted Naifeh doing the art) are the best!
Why would a person have rancor toward vegans? Maybe I don't want to know.
I just found out that my BIL has only consumed raw foods for the last 6 months or so. We have had a couple family dinner things during that time and both times he claimed he wasn't hungry. The next time I see him I'm going to yell at him for not letting me know. It is not a big deal to assure that my loved ones have food to eat when they visit me! He had been a vegetarian for many years, the only raw thing is new. He said after a couple months he couldn't believe how different food tasted. Of course, SIL could have told me too. They are gonna hear about it!
