Though, did you notice she has already updated her name and status on FB?

Her DH changed his status too. AWWWWW

Since I didn't include this in the Delurking thread and maybe one of you didn't hear this all over LiveJournal and Facebook, I got married-ed in July and it's awesome.

Kiba, I think I saw on FB that you got married, and I think I also forgot to send congrats. So, many belated congrats!

I don't care about baseball.

Cricket, on the other hand...

It's still dark out. I feel gipped. What did we change our clocks for, anyway?

OTOH, both xkcd and Questionable Content are firing on all cylinders today.

Congrats, Kiba!

Even though I have the day off, I am awake and have been for almost an hour now. My cats' stomachs are still on Daylight time and when their internal dinner bell has rung, there is no peace for me until they're fed.

I am the exception. I don't like baseball but I've been enjoying watching the World Series.

And yes, the kids and I are all awake before 6am with no need. The only good part so far is that both were asleep last night before 7:30.

More thank yous to all of you!

It is! Go forth in quest of black eyeliner and velvety clothes!

Oh, I already have both of those. It's just a matter of putting the velvety clothes together in the right way, and wearing the appropriate jewelry (which I also already have, actually) with them. Sadly I have to forgo the eyeliner even though I have it - I'm completely incapable of applying it without stabbing myself in the eye. Pencils aren't as bad as liquid, but they're still a problem. It's a fine motor skills/essential tremor issue. So I think I'm gonna go the whole smoky eye route instead.

I was born with a goth heart (I think Plei might vouch for this), but I think once I became a teacher I thought I had to suppress my already-very-subtle Gothiness. Which is very silly, I now realize. My subconscious was still making the effort, though - looking at my wardrobe, it's 50% black, 25% red (which I like to consider my signature color, though I'm moving towards purple) and 25% everything else, most of which I still feel a bit off wearing. (Not the white. But the pastels... Oh the pastels.)

Also it turns out I really like some Goth music. Who knew?

Kiba, I'm glad you're turning your inner Goth outter.

A few months ago, I painted Owen's nails black at his request and I think someone snorted derisively "is he a Goth boy?" I had to employ some of Jilli's good manners to answer without ripping someone a new one.

My wardrobe is at least 85% black and gray. I have some white. Sometimes I embrace the darker side of my personality but haven't gone all out...yet.

It's quite the Monday so far. I have a headache & sore midsection from straining the surgically repaired muscles on Saturday. Lewis tweaked his back. Abby appears to have a cold (please the gods and little fishes it's only a cold), and the dogs woke me up at five, not giving a fig for any clocks falling back or any of that nonsense. So far, Nate seems to be the only one unaffected by anything, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Fucking Tino. May he stay away from Cash and Liv-- lots of ~ma for both of you.

Yech, Barb. Monday is on notice.

I don't care about baseball.

Cricket, on the other hand...

I do love cricket, but have been sucked into watching baseball because of the fella. I think without cricket being my gateway drug I wouldn't be able to watch a whole baseball game though. When you've watched a whole test match a few hours of baseball doesn't seem that long.

A few hours of American football, however, can seem a lifetime. He's more or less stopped trying to get me to like it.
