random side notes - chapter twelve

nothing in particular has been happening as of late, so i'm back to the faithful old RSN postings for now. well, when i say nothing in particular, that is to say that everything is all over the place for me... as usual. weird news, good news, i-don't-know news. we keep all sorts of crazy in stock around here.

we're shopping around for cell service. i hate my current phone with a passion. it likes to shut itself off for no reason, lose calls in the middle of places that i should be getting reception, and generally be an unruly phone. choosing a cellphone service is something akin to choosing which way you want your arms broken, but i'm looking around nonetheless. i'm quite sure there are nightmare stories out there for each company, so in the end it'll probably be a coin flip. it will mostly depend on extraneous fees and which phone will be the easiest for me to use. if i'm going to upgrade to something fancy, i want a whole keyboard for text and a camera. if i'm going to stay ghetto, i'll just find something with good reception that's tiny and cute.

veronica's personal television show has been dubbed "kind of hysterical" by my friend maegan. maegan, in turn, will have her own show called "my normal ridiculous" at my command. we haven't named mine just yet. if your life were a television show, what would it be called?

i took the day off work today so that i could lay about and snot everywhere. yes, i realize that my vacation is only a few short days away, but this morning i was in no mood. the day rolled on with phone calls from everyone. how did you people know i took the day off? is it really that hard to get me to answer the phone on a normal day? (YES, it is. even i know that.) in between my naps and snotting i got a bit of news and updates from one coast to the other. literally. thanks for checking in, peeps.

stuart has become a lovey kitty. the reasons behind this are not completely clear, but it may be his fear of the new windup toys i've been bringing into the house. we have a small army of toys that run/spin/roll through the living room making noise and chasing the animals. hence, stuart scampers around the corner to then stick his head out of the bedroom and watch the windups whir and shake. all three of the kitties are now bordering on codependence. dizzy lays on derek's desk all day while he works. she sleeps and squirms and stares at him lovingly while going for the household's daily cute award. bubba? well, you know he is already. no provocation is necessary to get some bubba lovin' at any given time. meow.

tanya is a new aunt! her baby sister melissa had a little boy last week. damn, i guess she has a good excuse to miss the north carolina slumber party. good news, though, and tanya: you give melissa a hug from me.

only a few more days until i see mary!

i'm hungry even though i can't taste much of anything. i'm sleepy even though i've been napping enough to be a kitty cat. maybe i will kick derek out of the bed tonight and replace him with a plate of nachos. i could be lazy enough to just roll over and chew. nachos could make me feel really tough. they're a bad ass food... especially if they have guacamole. the mighty avocado must come to my rescue!


what i'm reading this week:
between the bridge and the river by craig ferguson. yes, the craig ferguson who has his own late night show. and it isn't bad.
