*it's &*$#@!!ing cold today.
*i woke up sick and spent most of the day in bed, drifting in and out, drinking water and making occasional trips to hug-the-toilet-and-weep (without ever actually throwing anything up)
*got up at 8pm and went out to grab dinner and groceries
*ran into school friend at walmart who said it sounds like i'm coming down with the current bug-going-around (even though I think I am just suffering PMS etc)
*decided to buy orange juice just in case
*dropped off overdue library books at school library
*received cheap cheap cheap lucite labret retainer I ordered - yay!
*now sitting sulkily, achily at home, eating grapes

hope your day was more fun than mine.

so, last night I went to see A Certain Three-Hour Film again, and the momster and I were sitting there watching the other viewers filter in, and as the opening credits were rolling, I leaned over and whispered, "Do you think anyone in this theater is seeing it for the first time?" "Nope," she replied.

The reason why this was funny is that just about everyone in the theater was some kind of massive geek or other. I can smell a roleplayer a mile away (sometimes literally, but more usually it's a facial hair / personal style thing, and very occasionally an issue of overhearing conversation... and come on, given the setting, it's a reasonable assumption). I would have stuck out like a sore thumb if I hadn't been wearing my baby tee featuring a cartoon version of Princess Leia with a "don't fuck with me" facial expression and a blaster in her hand! Instead I just felt like the Queen of the Nerds. (which is not a bad thing.) But we left before the end of the movie, so there was no tribute from my adoring public. ;)

Some fun-ee things to look at that I have stolen from other friend types:

It's a little Hi-Ho!(quite possibly the cutest little Japanese flash/shockwave ad ever, and well worth the load time.)

In most cases I would say don't quit your day job, but in this case I think I'll make an exception. (Actually, his voice isn't bad and he can carry a tune. But the song kind of scares me. This is what happens to your brain when you lose an election to a dead man, apparently...)

I am reminded that it is time for a new SOTW. I'll get to it tomorrow.

I think it's still cold. I haven't been outside to check.

Why can't I sleep for the amount of time I need to, lately? I think I got six hours of sleep last night and woke up nice and early. But I didn't need to wake up, I needed to get more sleep! augh. Oh well. I was able to get my mom up for her physical therapy appointment, at least. I sat around watching The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit on AMC, which is... well, I wish he had stuck with the Italian girl. I dislike Jennifer Jones and her moustache.

I have no idea what I'll do for the rest of the evening. As long as I'm home by 11 to catch that episode of 6FU that I missed, I'll be happy... so I might go out to a bookstore or to the library to study. (and how sad is it that I'm planning my schedule around TV viewing... do I have the excuse that it's commercial-free, at least?)

Oh, hey, it's vignoche's birthday today! whee! Happy bday, R! :)
