Wednesday, in Random Fashion

Argh!  Watermelon juice all over my bag.  Disaster.

I hate having dreams about money.  They’re never “Oh, we just won millions of dollars!” dreams.

You should go back, and reminisce.

The Random Confederacy is almost done.  Only 5 more weeks!  Doesn’t seem like it’s been nearly a year already.

I just feel like I’m entirely out of synch with the rest of the universe today.

I totally forgot about that.

Hot N Now reopened???

Great, now I have THAT song stuck in my head.

Bad vibes around this building today.  I’m not the only one who is wonked.

Great lunch with old work buds!

Tag!  You’re it!

I need a Diet Coke something fierce.

More stuff to do.  Finally.

Why hasn’t anyone brought me a Diet Coke yet??

It’s not horribel.  I keep typing that anyway.

And toady instead of today.

I wish it would rain.

Scrub.

It’s a little chilly.  It’ll be a little chillier tomorrow.  I think pants.

This, to me, has a very Bowie feel to it.  Somewhere in the late 80s.  87 ish, I think.

I have not gotten nearly enough done with the house.  I’m sort of stuck.  I need more help.  SITGR could come and we could get it all done in a weekend.

I wonder where the mail is.

It is taking me forever to finish this dinosaur.  It’s like my everything is on hiatus.  I just haven’t felt like knitting at all.

It’s just not like me.

I wonder if it will really rain tomorrow.

I think Robert Downey, Jr. is dreamy.  And so do you.

I think this iced coffee would be better if it were actually iced cappuccino.  We used to have a great recipe at the cafe I got fired from that time.  (Which was totally not my fault.  Gorram yuppie jerk.)

I think I should close this window.

Jackie Sorensen.  Sorenson?  I can’t remember now.  Spandex.

Another pot luck.  God’s teeth.  Save me from potlucks.

Our trees seem leafier this year.  There’s bigger shadow back there, I think.

Goats and bees.  Bees and goats.

I don’t know all the questions yet.

That mixer is arthritic.

Cookies?  Peanut butter bars?  Oh I know.  The chewy chocolate drop thingers.  They haven’t had those yet.  Damn.  A trip to the store.

It’s ok.  It’s not the zombie apocalypse or anything.

Babbleicious.

I’ve been there, I know the way.

Those robots are dangerous.

I guess it’s a tea pot collection now.

I will not eat that cookie.  I will not eat that cookie.  I will not eat that cookie.

Only 11 days left?  Really?  It just goes faster and faster.

It’s just not warm enough.

Professional.  Professional goofball, maybe.

Fort Custer National Cemetery 2012

more than 25,600 service men and women lie in fort custer national cemetery.  every year, our little family spends the saturday morning of memorial day weekend there; we help place flags at the graves.  it isn’t much, but we think it’s important.  sunday afternoon we return to the cemetery for a ceremony that honors those who have given everything in service to our country.

Random Wednesday

The first Random was 8/18/2010.  I’m thinking of putting them all together in a book.  Like a weird, professionally bound diary of oddities that only occur on Wednesdays.

The Great Gatsby in 3D?  Really?  Just because the technology exists does not mean you have to use it, Hollywood.

Also I really don’t like Leonardo DiCaprio much at all.

78 today.  It’s only 46 now.  It’s like living in two different hemispheres or something.

I’ve had this weird headache for days.  It is not my usual headache.  I do not like it.

Emus.  Man.

Ahhh meeting.  I have so little to report.

I need about 24 solid hours of sleep.

Still feeling like a party crasher.  Just care a bit less this week.

Oral history.

I’m not really a clutch carrier.  You can’t fit a book in a clutch.

Jesus.  Why does my elbow hurt???

Forfend.

Why yes!  Yes, I did just bite my tongue so hard I drew blood!  Yes, it does hurt like a bitch!  Thank you for asking!

Rough draft, roughly drafting.

Aw!  She brought me a cookie!  Best student staff ever.

It’s not every day you get told that you’re remarkable.

I keep forgetting this window is open.

I think it’s a good thesis.  A very, very important person will be missing, but I might be able to do something about that.

Stars and Stones, woman!

Harrison Bergeron wore a weighted vest too.

Everyone left.  I’m here alone.

want want want want want

I don’t think I like the texture on this silverware.

I think MWF always leaves me feeling RUSHED.

Stars and stones and hell’s bells.  That’s what it is.

Random Wednesday

you will meet a handsome stranger

If I had some chocolate milk I would drink some coffee.  Maybe I should walk down and get some chocolate milk.

This seems a lot easier than the way I’ve been doing it …

all this and

I went with the chocolate milk.  So I got in an extra walk and I get creamy chocolatey coffee goodness.

So.  Crazy pants.  I’m so glad I don’t own any of those.

I can just see this ending in disaster.  There needs to be an organizer.  Someone needs to be in charge.  And I am not that person.

blah blah blah so much sibilance blah blah blah

I think I need this dress.

And these socks.

OK, forget that other stuff.  I need this.

My shirt is too short for these pants.  It worked with the skirt I had on.  But then it was all cold and it was supposed to be warm.  Stupid weather ruining my wardrobe combo.

And this.  Please and thank you.  Really I should just stop looking at that site now.  Miss W would love these.

Ok.  I’m done.  I swear.

I really hate this chair.

Well this looks like fun.

This is the best.  Thoroughly awesome.

Apparently I’m making up for all those weeks with scarce links.

Train might not be the way to go.

I just got mail from Edmonton!  No, it wasn’t Nathan Fillion.  Nothing fun at all, in fact, just work stuff.  Sigh.

Um.  No, you need to listen to what I’m saying to you.  I’m kind of the boss of that.

I’m so good.  I found my $145 text book, brand new, for less than $20 shipped.

I love getting the Think Geek email.

I’m apparently in a very window shoppy mood today.  You should know I haven’t bought anything but the aforementioned chocolate milk.

Oooh!  A Michigan quarter.  Neat.

You might enjoy this.

I am officially a member now.

ice, dry

pop!

Thin Mints?  Delivered here?  Today?  Oh boy!

I find Tumblr to be somewhat inelegant.  But that’s not necessarily a criticism.

oops.  Graduated.  Not delivered.

People who spit their gum on the ground so that I step on it and it gets stuck to the bottom of my shoe SUCK.  There are garbage cans all over the place, use them.  Or swallow it.  Stop spitting it on the ground.  Jerks.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!  Old Dog is ours!  OURS!

You know how much I love Tim Burton.  And I love Johnny Depp.  But really.  I have to say.  It’s time to take a break from each other.  I’ll be in a Burton film til Depp comes back.  It will all be ok.  Really.  That said, I can’t wait to see Dark Shadows.

Oh it’s getting late.

Stop calling her, she’s not here.

But she’s so very small.

You’re gonna reap just what you sow.

Stupid fractions.  What are they teaching you?

focus focus focus.

Argh!  This is the wrong case.  Damn.

I’m glad I spent it with you.

Random Wednesday

#4,362

I don’t think people who don’t own property should be allowed to vote to raise my property taxes.

I do not understand the mind that thinks this looks good.  Fucking hipsters, man.  So ridiculous.

Holy wow that was a long meeting.  Aaaaaand here comes another.

I want a cupcake.  A big chocolate one.

Sorry I crashed your party.

I need a zombie arm for my yard.

I probably work for the wrong higher learning institution.  Is Hillsdale hiring?

I’m a little

Man my head hurts.

If I’m doing it that way I need a theme.  I think a theme.  Don’t you think a theme?

I could really use a nap.

Could it be?  Could it really be my birthday present?  Really truly really?

mmmm goldfish mmmmm

#latahgram

I still have never heard that band.

I wish I had a chai.

Yes, I think I will join, thank you.

Do you think we could get Adam Baldwin here?  I don’t know.

duggit

No it’s not.

I love Helena Bonham Carter.

UPS store.

Gar?  I don’t even know what that means.

It is!  It is my birthday present!!!!!

It’s just so completely awesome.

You’re a – hot dog – but you’d better not try to hurt her –

We haven’t seen Fee in ages.  He should come for a visit.

Stupid Capri Sun changed the boxes and now they’re all hard to open.

Well.  I wasn’t expecting that.  How strange.

I have to I have to

Oh bloody hell.

It would be nice to have the entire In Death series in e format.

I haven’t given you many links today, I was literally in meetings for half the day and swamped after that.  But I really love this song.  So have a listen.

Oh!  Look at all the stars!
