Most awesome random interruption to my evening. The girl next door came over to report that she had a bird in the house and no clue what to do. (My house being the headquarters of many helpful types) So Bobby and I go to see what is up. It was an owl! A small burrowing type. Absolutely adorable. It was hanging out on the ceiling fans (switched off) and going from room to room trying to exit via windows. We opened the door and were able to chase it out. After she took pictures on her phone, of course. It was so cute. Can't fathom how it got in.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

I'm watching Dirty Dancing:Havana Nights. I'm well aware of exactly how dumb this movie is. My weakness for dancing movies, though, is well-documented. So, I'm watching it.

My maybe-sorta date flaked on me tonight, so I boiled tortelini and am settling down for a last evening with SGA. At least I'll be able to grouse in real time.

mac is not so patiently waiting for the computer so he can watch a Ben10 episode. I guess I will go listen to more Wayne Dyer.

I got stuck at work later than I wanted, but since it wasn't snowing yet, I clomped into the night to pick up some booze and some random groceries. Yay, booze! Yay, foods!
My fatal mistake after getting home was crawling into bed to finish reading The Graveyard Book. Now I don't wanna get back up.

I'm making a grocery list. I'm tempted to revamp my pantry.
On the bright side, I have a 10 o'clock massage appointment.
