Three Day Weekends *Still* Aren’t Long Enough

Today is a day of chores. And a day of aspirin. A work crew spent several hours drilling all over my building today, including however long it took to do this to my living room window. I expected the drill to come through the wall. Maybe next time, since they’re obviously not finished.

I hate chores. It’s a self-perpetuating hate—I hate them, so I avoid them, until I can’t ignore them anymore and must spend an entire day on dishes and laundry and vacuuming, making me hate them even more. This is what I get for forgetting to buy more paper plates.

Yeah, I don’t have much of interesting to impart here, so instead, as I go to finish the second half of the dishes, a picture of my little darlings!

Blech

Why is it that knowing you can be ignorant about something and not be the stupidest person on the planet is a completely different thing from actually believing it?

Some Enchanted Evening

I don’t know why, but that song has been stuck in my head for weeks.

So, Wonderfalls was cancelled after four episodes. FOX continues to prove just how much it s*cks (content edited for family readers). It really was a wonderful show, quirky and irreverent, and terribly funny. However, the quality of television has been sliding ever farther down since the advent of reality television, and I’m not really surprised that it didn’t recognize the gem it had in Wonderfalls. RIP, Jaye, Eric and “Janet.”

Quiz night – third place finish, which is way better than last week’s boring non-placing. I showed my true couch potato stripes last night as I made myself a force to be reckoned with when television trivia is on the agenda. And I was never even a fan of The Mary Tyler Moore Show.

Yeah, my life is so boring. What else what else what else? Saw Hellboy last weekend. Good. Better than LoEG and Daredevil, but something was lacking, I just haven’t figured out what. Also bought TONS of yarn and ate LOTS of food with various and sundry friends and babies. Have not done laundry. Have not done taxes. I have been vigilant about going to my krav maga classes – twice a week so far, but I’m going to try to add Friday nights as well. Spent $300 on a new water pump. Read a book. Still working on my knitting projects. Aaaaand, that’s about it.

I’ll try to do more in the future. Until then, have a good Wednesday.
