Tasks remaining that I simply do not have the energy or the pain tolerance for any longer today (maybe tomorrow evening?):
1) Switch out the shower curtain hookie dealie things
2) Change the toilet seat to the new one
3) re-do the sealant around the bathtubs
4) re-vacuum and dust the house as surprise caches of cat fur have been found and dusted up
I think it's time for some tylenol AND aleve, a hot bubble bath, some light reading on physics and ... an early bed time.
Please, Lords and Ladies, no nightmares. I think I might be too damned exhausted to wake myself from them.
I got a hell of a lot done this weekend. :) Here's to hoping it pays off in mental laconic peace.
And you - Yeah, you. It sucks you're in the hinterlands with no cell service and limited internet access. A bed time story would be favorite about now. Mwah! G'night. :)
Would you care to know the extent of my jackassery?
I honestly - seriously - and accidentally - just glued together four of my fingers with Gorilla Glue.
::sigh::
Yes. I know.
I ... I did too much yesterday. My body is saying "FUCK YOU, YOU WHORE!" Rah. Rah. More to do today. Ohhhh my effin' shoulder. I really need that cabana boy about now. No, not for sechs ... for sorting and moving!
o.o
COMMENTS
Sorting and moving ... and she says it's not about 'sechs '
Wishing your body well.
Ain't it the same thing? ;)
yeouch. Hope your effin' shoulder gets better soon.
I think I am going to COMPLETELY rearrange my house this weekend. WITH ... the assistance of my brother, because I can't do heavy stuff. I can point and grunt. And provide beer and home cooked yummy.
Fucking shoulder.
Rearranging the house will hopefully give me fresh perspectives on things.
COMMENTS
"can't do heavy stuff"
"point and grunt"
"home cooked yummy"
I l♥ve you.
Likewise, Katie, de♥r, likewise. =)
Joli, I dn't think there's enough beer in the state of Texas to allow me to do that to my brothers hah!
So ... that's the way of it, eh? ::sigh::
Two for flinching.
Today was the culmination of quite possibly the shittiest week and a half at work in a long motherfucking time.
TWO PEOPLE! Two people in the past week and a half I have had to instigate proceedings against in one fashion or another!
One for fraud, and the other for material theft.
What the hell, man?
Is my judgment so skewed that I can't see things like this coming?
Can I trust my judgment on anything?
This is poisoning my thoughts.
I am toxic.
I need to hear your voice.
COMMENTS
We are often blind to the people we think we can trust. Then suddenly a trust is broken and it has a tendency to open our eyes to others around us - if only a moment. It just so happens there were two in your sight.
But kudos on going ahead with charges.
AND.........this weekend.........have rum. Rat tells me it makes all things better. :)
Butt dialing is FUNNY!
COMMENTS
Chance of a picture or at least a diagram?
yeah, we Brits have no idea wtfh butt-dialing is...
gawd, I just know I shouldn't be asking...
When someone shoves their cell phone in his or her pocket and accidentally calls someone. :)
I used to accidentally call my brother from my purse all the time. Heh.
ach man, I actually knew that we call it 'pocket-talking' thought it might have been a term for something y'know kinda kinky hahaha :P
Takes a special butt to do it like you badger. ;)
I am terrified. And exhilarated. And terrified. And eager. And terrified. And hopeful. And terrified. And yearning.
And confused. And searching.
...
And apparently a little ADD.
I have a twingle in my chest and it's growing.
It's a bit scary.
COMMENTS
:D
It's terrifying, and wonderful and beautiful? ♥
It's terrifying, and wonderful and beautiful? ♥
God hate double posts.
Like a thistle in my side.
*shakes fist*
BOO! (It's gonna be fine.) :)
lalalalalalalasomebody's in love lalalalalalalala
You are so damned amazing.
Where have you been?
COMMENTS
Right here...
...oh? You weren't talking to me.
Damn my ego.
Ffffft...she meant me. DUH!
I was on my main profile CryingMist trying to take over the royal lounge sorry hun my bad ;)
Yeah, cow! Where have you been?
..
I just realized .. Joli, I can call you a COW and not have it be derogatory.
COW COW COW COW COW COW!!! ♥!
If you came over to my house and I offered you a glass of milk...would you accept?
:)
O.o
Even though it make me ill, i'd have to sip from yon odd pail.
(Hahahahah! Had to. )
I miss my father so badly. It's been 4+ years ... But I want to talk to him. I want to know his thoughts on this new and frightening and fabulous and breathless-making thing happening.
I need to drive up to the family cemetary soon and have a conversation with his headstone.
I'll bring a marble, Poppy. I've lost so many of mine (heh), but I'll always have a marble for you.
Holy cow.
Swim, woman, swim!
It'll be nifty to see what's on the other side of the river.
OK. So. Something in my dinner is making the inside of my mouth peel, and my tummy HURT.
Contents:
Pork, celery, porcini mushrooms, portabello mushrooms, spinach, salt, pepper, garlic. Nothing was spoiled - everything was fresh.
What. The. Fuck. ?
My stomach is CRAMPING.
COMMENTS
I am venturing a guess and saying it's got to be the mushrooms. A latent allergy perhaps?
OR bad pork?
I vote it was the celery. Celery is fucking evil.
The Great A'Tuin, the Star Turtle, holds the world (in disc form) balanced on the backs of four huge elephants which are in turn standing on his back as he slowly swims through space ... I believe I know just where Terry Pratchett got the idea for A'Tuin, I am delighted to say.
I am delighted. :)
COMMENTS
I remember seeing this during a netflix marathon... I can't remember the movie, but I distinctly remember seeing the turtle and elephants. hmmm.
I loved the Disc World series. Terry Pratchet is absolutely delightfully absurd.
I'm reading Small Gods right now!
But I know what you meant! ;)
It is STORMING here, thundering hard enough that I feel it in the floor under my feet.
Rain! Oh, lovely lovely rain!
Tempestuous love,
You dance within my heartbeats,
Arable earth sighs ...
Oh, rain you lovely missed thing ... Don't stay away so long next time, ok?
I have been walking around all day with a Cheshire Grin.
::puuuurrrrrr::
Yesterday, for most of the day, I had one of the best conversations I have had in a long while. :)
Lack of sleeping well caught up with me int he evening and I think I fell asleep mid thought. :(
Odd thing - I woke up and went to check my hon and could not find it. I looked in the blankets, under the bed, on the dresser, the chest of drawers ... I finally called it from my house phone.
Imagine my surprise when my freezer started ringing.
o_O
It was siting in there, nestled cozily on top of the ice trays.
Today was a terrific conversation, all in all. :)
I enjoyed it very much.
Thank you. =)
Two mouths, inseparable ... And the pressure is all mine ...
COMMENTS
After "parry and riposte" appeared in my messages, I checked favorite journals, saw you had a NEW and came on in...to see:
"Two mouths, inseparable...And the pressure is all mine"
Scrolled back in my mind to my last comment to you, which, as I recall was:
"How about a warm glass of milk...on me"
Oh god...OH GOD
It took me some time to notice this was titled "A kiss"
Holy crap, Batgirl...
OH GOOD GODS ... NO No I meant in the nightmare one. o.o Oh wow. AHAHAHAHAH
Yeah. I'll take socially awkward for 600, Alex.
COMMENTS
Who is my Co Worker!
One of the most socially defunked people I know. ;p
And the answer is today's daily double...

That ... That was a hell of a lot of fun. :

Totally different topic - it is exceedingly difficult to stop watching the wiggling udders o.o
My brother on the phone with me: "Mumblemumblemumble."
Me: "What? I can't hear you." ::look at phone:: "Well, fuck, my phone's upside down. ::facepalm::"
Him: ::much laughter::
COMMENTS
I've done that more times than I care to admit. :o/
LOL
Do you ever get the feeling that your role in a conversation is to play the part of Uncle Inappropriate and cause people to make the "o_O" face? ... yeah. Me, too.
COMMENTS
yep!
Well it was good
You are the best at it. ;)
So, Bath and Body Works discontinued my favorite lotion, the Lemon Summer Vanilla. It made me smell like lemon cookies. I found a new love ... Pomegranate Citrus ... I kind of sniff like a cistrusy edible arrangement ... I must try this on a hungry man ... ::runs in place so the scent wafts ...::
I want to go DO something, but I have no idea what! I have cabin fever like nobody's business.
...
FAUGH! I also want to go play football. Fuck, if the NFL isn't going to get their shit together for this coming season, maybe I can start my OWN league.
Come one, come all, come look like a goober with a ball! Let's play, no pay, just have fun and join the fray!
Think it'll work?
...
It'll take a miracle.
eggs beaten with a touch of cinnamon, a bit of nutmeg and some vanilla and scrambled ... they taste like crepes.
Mmmmm cinnamon eggs ♥
COMMENTS
I'll still eat them if you post some... :(
Never tried those. I need to come live with you, eat some of these wonderful foods you keep telling me about.
My internet cut out last night when I was having a fun convo with VW and Khayman Stupid internets. :(
Had a lovely conversation with Sahahria on the phone. Our "quick five minute conversations" are never less than an hour.
Between those three and Khaymans wish-sending me autumn dressed mountains, I had no nightmares last night barring the one just before waking this morning. :)
I got about 6 hours of solid sleep. ♥
I have this desperately certain feeling that something is TERRIBLY wrong somewhere.
It's causingme to be very antsy.
COMMENTS
I hate that sensation! :( *hugs*
There is... I am here and you are there! ;)
Scan everybody's journals- I'm sure you'll find it sooner or later...lol
Congratulations- you got your wish.
o.O My wish?
Oh, DAVE ...
I am dainty fresh! Come and get me, big boy! Also, the linoleum is sparkling!
COMMENTS
Oh...VERY nice!
HEY! You're onto something - a time saver. Lysol douching in the kitchen kills 2 birds with one stone!
Reminds me of the old joke about the woman confused by the abundance of feminine products available for her in the pharmacy. She asked a sales clerk for assistance on choosing one. He said, "That all depends...what's your flow like?"
Slightly confused she responded slowly, "Linoleum..."
I am so stealing that joke!
I sneezed really hard and popped a rib out.
YAY. ME.
And ow.
DeLeon helped me put it back in. Yay, he.
Today is done, so, yay that, too.
I am having jalapenos, stuffed with fake cream cheese and wrapped in bacon. YAY, DINNER!
Fabulous end to a very long day. :) I adore jalapenos.
... ::sigh::
I really do want you to be well, and happy, and I really don't want to feel guilty for ASKING you if you are well and happy. I'm so angry still, and hurt, but ... I do want you to be well and happy. How I feel about the whole mess is MINE to deal with, and MINE to try and figure out.
I know this.
Have I even said one word TO you about how very unworthy and small your actions made me feel? No. Because ... oh, fuck it.
I don't even know what it's safe to discuss or if it's even welcome that I am trying, feebly and sporadically, to keep conversational lines open. I do enjoy friendship with you. I don't enjoy that I can't seem to put my resentment behind me or make that pain stop happening in my chest whenever I think about this whole mess and the blighted possibilities therein.
Just ... go. Be well. Be happy. Maybe I ought to make sure you be out of my sight, also. Eff grammar, in that last bit.
... Did I just use "therein" in a sentence?
Dear Cancer:
As a note ... This SMS message thing when you have a new journal comment or message? I really do like it.
=)
Thanks, C!
I got ran off the road today. Awesome right?
Well, my car did not get hit, I was not hurt, I dd not pee myself ... just ... got run off the road by an old woman in a big blue truck who had what looked like half her fist up her nose. So. Yeah. Fun. I did not end up in oncoming traffic, did not hit the light pole ... yea. All is good. It just scared the hell out of me.
Pollyanna, eh? I am grateful all it was was a scare. :)
COMMENTS
I'm glad that you're just fine, aside from the scare. :)
Makes you want to eyeball her and yell, WHERE'S THE BEEF??!!
Man, Joli, the way she was digging in her nostril, it may have been THERE.
Damn woman drivers.... wait... I resemble that comment... never mind. :P
I could really use a cuddle today. A cuddle sounds just about right.

Well, you ALL wondered what the hell the badger was doing ... looking so relaxed .. etc. ...
Nope. NOT dialing the pink telephone (that's for special "private time" ... Badger be napping! Oh, yea!

Morri does love her breakfast sausage...LMAO
I found a new cast iron wok for $20.
I love cooking with cast iron. It's got a nice 10" long sturdy handle, a 14" across cooking bowl and a small grip handle opposite the long one. It allows for a good two handed swing-grip. Yes. I tested it in the store. o.o
:D
I hate it when my hands do the witch looking arthritis thing. >.< OW Straighten out you mutants! I am eventually going to be able to frighten children with my mitts. "Touch ... my pinky ... I DARE YOU!" ::sounds of screaming and the pitter-patter of running child feet::

Any you are looking forward to frighten the hell out of the rug rats. ;)
Kidding aside- my mother has hands like this, unable to push her wheel chair, in pain. I feel for you sis.
feh...perfect fer holdin a broom. SWEEP MAH PANTRY!
Joli - Maybe that's why we see so many little old ladies with brooms?
I am having super crunchy peanut butter, lightly salted rice cakes and preserves made f blueberries, cranberries, cherries and grapes for dinner. ♥ YUM!
COMMENTS
I had rum, with a little water melon slushy. ;)
If you made them thar preserves, ma'am, care to mail me a jar?
Yes, the new possibilities for avatars are fabulous! But ... They are very noisy for me.
Damned synaesthesia. The who's online page is a clamor!
COMMENTS
I find them kind of distracting, oh well change.
I'm with you, but for me, I think it's more to do with getting old and crotchety. Oh, and get off my lawn!
Some of them I have to scroll past in a hurry- the way they move gives me migraines
Something is lacking and I have no idea what. But it's seriously lacking.
Maybe it's a someone? But WHO?
::grumble::

*slides in, rat fur flying* I'MMMMM here!
::hug squish Rat::
YAY!
Joli! This one's not awful, just weird!
1) I was grocery shopping and the only things I had to buy were cucumbers (2) and Lipton Brisk Tea in 4 packs of 20 oz bottles. Most of the four packs were broken, so this was a small challenge.
2) I was a barbarian warrior and had to convince people I was stupid so they'd underestimate me. My huge plan for this was to pay for everything in coppers and half pennies. Coin. By. Coin. And I managed (huh?) to convince the kind he had a son by another woman. (He did, but how the hell would a barbarian warrior know- and why would she care?)
3) I woke up singing this song:
Mwah!
(Youtube failure, by the way - that was supposed to embed Get Down On It by Kool and the gang.)
Keep working on that Requiem blocker, honey. ;)
I don't want to wait five years, but I don't want to completely fuck my time line.
Meh.

A true Vernian! SALUTE!
So don't, then. lol
I could cheerfully ravish you for a good three or four hours, you know.
You'd have a limp.
Ready?

Wait...

"I need ... something. When I figger it out ... I'll get it."

*gets the popcorn and settles in*
a limp what?
I did not win the lottery. :(
I want cheese. I MISS cheese. I am allergic to dairy.
I ... I wonder if it would be worth it to chew on it, spit it out, chew on more, spit it out, like the angels in Dogma.

"some light reading on physics" ... ♥
Is any physics light reading? :P
I'd offer a back rub, but "rub" and the idea of "oiling up" are such a turn off lol.
