Let's cross our fingers for the future.

Indeed.

I am tipsy. And I haven't even finished one beer. I knew I was a lightweight, but damn. This is good beer. You won't be able to find it though. It was the 1000th batch at Goose Island. It's a stout aged in bourbon barrels. Yum. I've never been this tipsy while doing laundry before.

Watching the X-Files ep Milagro. How did they mangage to make Padgett so fascinating and yet so creepy? I get so sucked into this ep.

Skipping to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Java Cat's birthday.

Happy birthday, Java Cat! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year.

Happy birthday Java Cat!

Mmmm. Buffistas are far more interesting than work.

Re teeth issues: my dentist just convinced me last time I was there to straighten my teeth after years my family and me were against it. Then again, we're talking about an enthusiastic Russian woman who's telling me I'm pretty and things like "you'll be a beauty queen! You'll have a Hollywood smile!". She just wants to do that so much I'd hate to spoil her fun, so the minute I'll have to money I'm gonna go for it (for some health issues as well, of course. I wouldn't do it just to satisfy the world's desire for the Same Teeth For Everyone, because I'm all "how 'bout I'll bend some of your other bones and see how you'll like it and charge you a hell lot of money for it as well?").

Re kids and words: Your children's sayings made me laugh. They're great. Send more.

Going to a bonfire tonight with Buffy friends, so it's gonna be Buffy themed (Lag BaOmer is tomorrow). One of the favorite activities is reading out load awful fanfiction and toss it into the fire. Nilly, will you be there?

Also, why do I actually have to be awake to do my job? Not fair. Meh. Gotta get back to work, and be efficient. But you guys are far more interesting. And I'm sure you'll all pretty too. And probably smell good.

(I'm not drunk, I'm just tired)

Edit: coffee helps grammar.

will you be there?

Nope, sorry. No bonfire for me.

You know Liraz, right? Her wedding is next week, so some friends are throwing her a sort-of-bachelor(ette?)-party (which means we'll sit around and eat lots and talk and laugh and the like. No presents, so it's not a shower or anything like it, I guess - naming stuff is complicated). Anyway, that's where I'm going.

Have a good time, tonight! Say "hi" for me to the 1.7 people I may know who may be there?

[Edited for excessive use of "tonight" in several sentences. Also, 8=2³ and 2*3=6 and it's been forever since I last slumbernutted like this but apparently it's like riding a 17-wheels bike.]

OK dear, then I'll have just to see you next week (I have to go to Tel Aviv again to take my skirt after fixing from Gal). Seriously, let's meet. I'd hate to go to Tel Aviv just for the skirt. It's very pretty and all, but it's kinda useless to spend all this money on buses just for one thing.

Oh, and say hi to Liraz and the other 1.7 people I'll know there too! Wow, next week? I had no idea it's that close. Time flies.

Oh god, y'all, the dentist situation just got even weirder. Yesterday when I was out of town I got *another* VM from him, this time apologizing for leaving me a message meant for someone else. Really? Someone else who had an unexpected root canal, and you were shirty to when they asked for meds, and they have a crown waiting that hasn't been put in yet? Really?

I seriously think he's losing it.

An exchange with Emeline this morning:

Me: Okay, let's get you dressed.

Her: *pttthhhbbbtt*

Me: That's not nice.

Her: Oh, I'm sorry. *PTTTHHHBBBTTTT!!!!*

Um-

Does your dentist have Alzheimer's or something? That is very strange.

I don't know what to think. He is kind of old.

Wow, brenda. I don't know if I could trust my doctor after that.

Me: Okay, let's get you dressed.

Her: *pttthhhbbbtt*

Me: That's not nice.

Her: Oh, I'm sorry. *PTTTHHHBBBTTTT!!!!*

Thank you. She's very wonderful, and I like it when people listen to me.
