I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

House-cleaning, plus movies movies movies. We are going to a screening of Paper Heart on Saturday afternoon with one pair of friends, then meeting another set for a quick dinner inthe courtyard of the theater followed by Julie & Julia. Sunday, we are meeting yet ANOTHER friend to go see 500 Days of Summer.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What are people doing this weekend?

Trying to persuade myself to clean and do errands so that the following weekend I don't flip out like a mammal at how much I have to do before I leave on vacation.

We are off to Alabama tonight, to help our friends unpack. They just moved there last weekend, and she is having a baby ca. Sept. 9 and they have a 2 year old. So we are going to try and get them all whipped into shape before he starts his job and the baby comes.

Hopefully have fun, too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's supposed to be a hot weekend (97 on Sunday!) and I don't have AC... so I might crash at a friend's place.

My parents had the rule that we weren't to swear until we "got old enough." Basically, swearing was yet another privilege reserved for adults only. Of course, that just meant that we swore when they couldn't hear us--my 8th-grade classmates in homeroom were impressed by my ability to use "shit" appropriately.

I didn't start swearing until I was in college.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The kids actually have the context down, so there is that.

Movie theatre, tommy, movie theatre. Or mall, bookstore, or library. Me, I'm turning on my a/c tonight before going to bed and leaving it on until at least next Wednesday.

I'm getting home before 6:00 so I can pick up my Amazon package with BSG and Torchwood dvds to watch tonight, and then I'll be going grocery shopping after I get off work tomorrow. Have to replace the meat I tossed due to the inadvertant defrosting yesterday, and also included in said Amazon delivery is a cooking thermometer with probe, so I might be roasting a turkey tomorrow night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In 5th grade, I was super proud of myself for knowing "all the swears." By which I meant the F word.

I am excited to be home this weekend, and plan to go to the movies, do laundry, etc. I'm about to make some cookies, I think.

Yeah, except I can't sleep at any of those places.
