Zowie, It's Been Agesso as usual, it's been too long, just too long since my last posting and so much has changed. i've got a new job in the time since i last posted, but as the new gig has a blogging policy, i won't talk about work. the good news is that i do like the job and it's a universe apart from the hellmouth, so i can't complain.oh, let's face it. i could. but in this economy, it's not

So, I Was In Funkvillebut i'm back again. i will write about my awesome birthday weekend soon (the adorable one treated me to a fantastic and perfect weekend of fabulousness).for some reason on monday, i just felt out of sorts. maybe it was a let down from the weekend. but i was crabby, pissy, and just felt non talkative, non social, and just wanting to be left alone.thankfully, like a lingering

Ever Have One Of Those Dayswhere pretty much everything seems irritating? the boss you usually like gives you a hard time. all the people that congregate by your cube because the kitchen is right there decide to talk really loudly for a long time, which interferes with your work, which includes writing and talking on the phone to clients.i know there's the saying that some days you are the dog

It Must Be Something I've Donebecause let me say that for the last few nights, all i've had are bad dreams. a few nights ago, i dreamed i was back at the hellmouth, visiting some people. in the dream i thought that the head jerk was around, so i was hiding from him. that dream wasn't as bad as the one i had this morning.for some reason i was at an expensive restaurant and had to pay the bill for

$$$$, But Super Delishdamn panera bread--even their spinach & artichoke baked egg souffle is addictive. it's probably a good thing that they are cost prohibitive or i would seriously be in debt and i wouldn't fit into one outfit i own. seriously.

I Can't Remember The Last Timegas cost $2.69/gallon, as that's what the price today when i filled up my car after work. the price was actually less than when i left for work this morning ($2.72). so instead of costing close to $30 for a half tank of gas, i got away with spending a little over $18.yay, i know it won't last much longer, but it's nice for a change not to feel completely robbed at

Note The Dateyesterday, due to a cold front that came through that included a drop in temps plus rain, i actually turned on the furnace. we always try to go as long as we can without having the furnace on, but as the low was gonna be in the 40s and the highs only in the 50s for today and tomorrow, i wimped out and flipped the switch last night.i only have it only set at 68 (usually in the winter,

What A Total Hootyesterday we were watching vh1's "top 20 videos", which is kind of a rarity for us, as usually they feature pretty sucky videos. but i must say katy perry's new single, "hot n cold" is a a fun song with a great hook. and the video is a total throwback to 80s videos. in fact, i liked the song enough to add it to my ipod.too bad the beginning of pink's new song, "so what", is so

It's Vapid, But Still Kinda Sadso last year i got into the "girl's next door" show on the e! network, which granted is a mindless, silly show. but very escapist, which is what i like.the toughest things those girls have to do is pick out what they are going to wear on a daily basis. rest of the time, they are living rent-free, in a mansion with staff, going on amazing trips, planning costume

It's Not Even Winterand has totally felt like this in our bedroom. which i don't get because it hasn't been all that cold yet. maybe like in the 40s, but not freezing. so it's a mystery why our house, which usually retains the heat of the day, has gone all ice box on us. don't even wanna think what the real winter temps are gonna be like. because feeling like a popsicle in the morning totally

It's True: I Am A Fat Piratei actually heard someone say at work the other day, as they surveyed the latest amount of food in our kitchen area, which hey by the way, is right by my cube, "i feel myself getting fatter." which would actually apply to me, as my skirts are tighter with good reason.i can say that in my 17 years of working that i have never worked at a place, including the restaurant

If Only There Was An Off Buttonfor things like bad dreams. last night, the adorable one got home around 12:30 a.m. from his trip to sparks, nevada, where he played golf and toured his jobsite. i had fallen asleep before he got home, but interestingly i woke up right before he made it to the house. was so awesome to see my man, as he had left on sunday, and even though it was only two days, it's

How Cool Is The Adorable One? so adorable that he found these awesome boots on amazon and thought of me. i still have to try a pair of similar boots at BassPro to see what size what works for me, but seriously at the decent price, i think these will be great for my bday . . . along with this little gem i found on craigslist. lucky for me, i am not paying full price. woohoo!

It's Not Just Methat feels like it should still be august. for some reason, maybe it's me getting old (a running theme in this blog, yes i know), but in my mind, the last two months slipped away like sand and now we're faced with the leaves actually and really turning colors and falling off the trees.personally, without sounding like a complete nutball here, i feel like the trees are being

Another Weird Thingi've been having a lot of bad dreams lately. it's been going on for the past couple of weeks. can't say why as it's not like i'm watching horror movies or bad tv (unless you count "the hills"). the strange piece is that i can't remember any of the nightmares. i should be writing them down in some kind of dream journal, but by the time i get to work i can't even remember what

A Strange Phenomi love my bathroom. anyone that really knows me knows that. granted it was decorated in the 1950s, so the adorable one has dubbed it "barbie bathroom" due to a large amount of pink, but hey, it's perfect. i kinda consider it a sacred place because i'm the only one that ever uses it, unless we have guests over, like my parents who can pee like every ten minutes given the

I Wish I Could Explain Itbut i've been unquestionably and unconscionably irritable since monday. i'm not pms-ing--that was over last week. i'm just unequivocably crabby. and i would love to say that i could turn it off like a faucet, but i'm just super pissy.don't know if my body has metabolized the paxil prescription, but i am not a happy camper of late and there's absolutely no reason for it.

Holy Cowso there's no better burger on the planet than the ones grilled by the adorable one. from the barefoot contessa, we learned to use ground beef with some fat (like 73% lean) and put a pat of butter in the middle, which makes for a very moist burger. of course, he seasons it with sea salt and fresh cracked pepper.but if we had to eat a burger in cowtown no less, there's only one place we
