Happy Teppy Day!!!

So the beds I ordered for the twins? It was supposed to arrive on Friday, but didn't. I just checked UPS. It comes in 5 boxes. It's weight is 293 lbs. WHAT?! I will need building help come monday!

Oh, man, I'd never paused to think how much *crap* a decathlete has to travel with. I just handwaved all that. Christ--poles, discus, javelin, shot...it must cost as much again as the ticket sometimes.

Got my hair cut with the 1/2 guard.. This had better last forever, fuck.. I tried to watch a bit of Tangled the other day, and...ack! No. That's just a nightmare.

I also just saw some Xena on my dash. Man, she kissed Gabrielle a lot. I need to rewatch that and work out if it takes ten minutes or fifteen to work out how gay they are. I haven't seen any Xena in months.

I just got a (mass) email from a friend about a sex lecture she's giving soon. Why do my friends keep teaching sex? I'm pretty sure my sister doesn't know anyone who teaches sex. Well, no, she does have a sexologist colleague, but she's insistent they aren't friends, and I think I talk more to Karen than she does. Which makes three, but Karen I met because she taught sex. The others just...started suddenly. I make a lot of noise about a lot of shit, but I cannot imagine making that career decision. There are still a few people to whom I must remain a virgin. I'm good with that particular hypocrisy.

Still, if you want to know about the energetic root lock of the pelvic floor, I can hook you up with just the person.

(And, oh my god, what percentage of things believed about the Mayans are actually based in fact? I think it must go cannibals, druids, and then Mayans in terms of bullshit talked. Then, maybe pirates.)

Should I mix the simple syrup and lemon juice ahead of time? Can I mix the simple, lemon, AND gin?

I am pretty sure when bartenders batch up cocktails, they mix everything except the citrus and any carbonated stuff. If juliana stops by, she could confirm or deny.

I know Jilli hasn't read every post on the internet with the word "vampire" in it (that's a full time job), but this caught my eye: Vampire Book Club charity auction to raise money for brain cancer research and I thought it might be of interest to a few people here, if they're not already aware of it.

Happy Birthday Steph!

There are times when it feels like it. But I hadn't seen that charity auction. Neat!

Happy Birthday, Teppy!

I'm feeling a little guilty about calling home. I usually do it Sunday after the ER, now that it's not every two days panic stations anymore. And that's low energy. I called this morning because I hadn't been able to get in touch on Mummy's birthday, and since I hadn't done anything yet, I had spoons.

I feel guilty when I call my dad too much or not enough. We've lost our old schedule and rhythm on the phone. It's mostly a duty thing currently. But the conversations aren't probably giving either of us a lot. We'll evolve that, I hope.

Isn't that basically Kegels?
