yes, colonial, because that is what Miss W calls him.
Month: January 2012 (Page 2 of 2)
I never make ordinary posts any more. I post Random Wednesdays and the weekly Random Confederacy shot. Perhaps I need more specificity in my world. Perhaps not. I don’t think it makes a lick of difference either way. The point is I felt like posting. And here I am.
The book in the pic (which was shot with my phone, oooh the quality!) is The Other Side of the River. It is an interesting story, unfortunately the author puts too much of himself into it. I’m reading it for an urban politics class, much of which is centered around Detroit.
I visited my new desk in my new work home today and ended up chatting with my new boss for quite a while. It was a nice visit. I can’t wait to make the move. Three weeks!
It’s been snowing like crazy since yesterday, people were having trouble driving on campus. (We should have had a snow day!) I was crossing the road to leave and some students were trying to make it up the hill. I was moving cautiously as the road was slippery and I was nervous about getting hit by this carload of girls. My caution displeased them. The front passenger rolled her window down and actually said to me, “Are you fucking retarded?” I said “Really? That’s how you talk to people? Classy.” Mostly our students are of a much higher caliber, at least in my experience.
And now I’m home and it’s a snowy Friday and I have a three day weekend to look forward to. Knitting, studying, lots of tea, and maybe I can squeeze in a little Dr. No. (I’m alternately picturing Sean Connery and Daniel Craig as Bond as I read. Can’t go wrong either way, really)
i had some dreams there were clouds in my coffee
It’s always so cold here.
I still don’t have a tiara.
I had a tiara once.
The spam the spam the spam. Sometimes it’s just hilarious.
Seems that I have been held.
Beta blockers were just a bad idea.
Do not push buttons on my phone if you don’t know what they do. You break things that I have to fix.
Now that, that right there, that is the best news I’ve had in a very long time. That is a pretty kick ass way to start the new year.
I’m so happy. What a fantastic day. And my head is feeling a little better too!
Mustaches aren’t as much fun as fake blood. They just aren’t.
I should have grabbed a snack.
Tears of joy, I tells ya. Tears of joy.
Clear your mind of the fog.
I swear they have the air conditioning turned on in here. wtf?
I don’t like this pen.
Challenges. I have to have challenges.
My fingernails are turning purple. Cos it’s just that cold in here.
Lady, you really should have had your lunch before you came in here so that I didn’t have to listen to you eating it.
This will make you feel good.
If you must eat in here, stop talking with your mouth full. It is truly disgusting.
Fella from Justified is an avid amateur photog. Lots of photos from his trip to India here. His don’t compare to my friend Heathre’s photographs, but his perspective is worth a look.
Licking your fingers? Really?
I think I need to buy myself something pretty.
Ha!!! Yes!! I haven’t watched the Simpsons in years. I am going to have to check this episode out.
Ooooh! Nothing like finding the perfect gift for someone! Yay!
I can tell you right now I’ve already had too much Diet Coke today.
cupcakes cupcakes cupcakes
I’m so excited. I mean really really really excited. Like Chris Isaak excited but even more than that, because this is way huger.
Now we need to hear some Chris Isaak.
Why am I getting email from Newt Gingrich?
It’s taking me forever to read Dr. No. Mostly because I can only get to it between twelvety other things.
What??? No more chocolate Zingers??? Nooooooooo!
This.
Holy wow! I didn’t realize it was that late. I will have to go back to the office soon. sigh.
Good luck to my uncle, Toddzilla, in Vegas this weekend!
I have always disliked the word chamois. It confuses my brain. I know how it’s pronounced, and yet every time I see it, my brain stumbles.
It always kind of smells like pizza dough in here. But there’s never any pizza in this building.
Oh, are the dead voting again?
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m sure I’ve played this recently. One of my favorites.
Miss W is experiencing Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids for the first time. She’s not sure if she likes it yet. I loved that show as a kid.
I got a new job today! I got a new job today! I got a new job today!!!!!
i can’t find my way out of here
That’s terrible news. That is not a good way to start the year.
Blisteringly.
My head hurts something fierce today.
I am not really a Patti Smith fan, but I love her version of this song.
I only have to make it through half a day.
I don’t think they’re going to call.
I’m pretty sure this is turning into a migraine. Yay.
I’m trying. I’m trying. I’m trying. I’m trying. I’m trying.
Bachmann should have dropped out ages ago.
Caring is above my pay grade today.
oh dear
I think this is going to end up on Thursday too. So much pain in this noggin.
You have to like this song, or there is something very wrong with you.
I think I need a different stuff and things.
Finally reading Jodi Picoult’s House Rules. I’ve been hanging onto it for more than two years now. It’s every bit as good as I’d expected.
Imitrex makes my jaw feel really weird. It hurts to chew.
I can’t get warm. I was warm in my car. It’s toasty in my car.
I need a sensory deprivation chamber. Except that would probably just make me really dizzy. So never mind.
Wow, Norwegian purling is complicated.
I like the idea of magazines more than actual magazines. I do look forward to getting Vogue Knitting every month though.
I don’t wanna, I don’t think so.
Stuck in my head and I don’t know why.
I thought it was a lot later than that.
I think it’s skeevey when women go out with men 20 years younger than they are. I don’t think it’s skeevey when men go out with women 20 years younger than they are. This may be a double standard, but I do not care.
I am incredibly lucky, even if I often feel like the universe hates me.
January 15 is National Hat Day.
Miss W wishes she had a little brother and a little sister. Good luck with that, Miss W.
I wish my hair would grow faster.
Everyone likes you. I wonder what that’s like.
I wonder where all the frog guts are.
I’m enjoying Justified. We just started season two.
We don’t have a word.
My days are too long, my years are too short.
I love you more than this migraine.
