In the middle


I'm going through another of those times during which my life is just short of being awful. None of my problems are big enough to be "important" but nothing is right. All around me things seem so dissatisfactory and they all need just one thing to go horribly, horribly wrong. Then again, just one thing could go delightfully right. You never know which way things will turn, and the optimist in me believes that things will go wonderfully. When the pessimist in me gets a chance to speak (when she wiggles out of her gag, you know) she tells me life is on the verge of being over. That's when I hit her over the head with a happy club, tie her up and throw her in the closet again, but that little seed of doubt lingers. I hate little seeds of doubt.
At least these sorts of mood let me get the benefit of my non-happy music. I don't have much, but it's worthwhile to listen to in these "troubled times".
I wonder if I've always been so over dramatic.

In other news; two disgusting creepy crawlies have been in my bed at two different times. The first was an ugly, big beetle that greeted me first thing one morning. It was right in front of my face. Yuck.
The second was a spider that fell onto my arm at 2:30 am. It was small, black, and decidedly fast. Eww.
Surprisingly, I dealt with the spider much more easily than the beetle. After the beetle I was afraid to go into my room for the rest of the day. After the spider, I killed it, cleaned it up and went right back into my bed. I wasn't really tired, despite the late hour, but felt I should be sleeping anyway. Weird me.

Randomly Random Randomness


I ought to be writing out e-mails, I ought to be uploading videos, I ought to be home painting (my room shall be orange, and maybe my blog will be in April, but I haven't decided. If you haven't noticed, I've decided to change the color of my blog every month) but I'm writing in my blog for no good reason. I suppose I could justify it by writing about my new home, my new furniture, my new found hatred and loathing of wasps (even more than the dreaded moth) but I won't.
Instead, I talk about whatever the heck pops into my head as I sit here in Panera, downloading stuff from Itunes and eating a cinnamon chip scone. Ahh, the good life.
I enjoyed the covers of Zombies songs by Blake and Chris from this week's American Idol. In a fit of boredom I turned on that show... despite Sanjaya still existing... ugh. I can't really believe I'm buying the originals, yet I am.
Elliot Yamin's debut CD was worth waiting for. I couldn't get it the day it came out, they were sold out. I guess that's what happens when you live in his hometown. They love him around here. He was signing Cd's at a store here yesterday. I didn't go, I don't consider meeting celebrities to be the most amazing thing I could ever do.
Isn't chocolate milk lovely?
I was watching What Not to Wear this morning, and decided that Stacey and Clinton would rip into me with horrific enthusiasm. I hope I never meet them, I like the way I dress. Even if I do still shop in the juniors section.
I hate that my downloads take so long at this Panera, it says I have to wait 4 hours for something to load. If I didn't have a life I wouldn't care, or even better if I had Internet at my house. Sadly, neither of those is the case.
Lewis Carrol is a delightful author. While reading his books and poems I find it hard to believe the bad stories about him. He'd be interesting to talk to. Sylive and Bruno is so much more entertaining than the Alice books that I'm surprised it's not more popular. The Hunting of the Snark is great, "For the snark was a boojum you see."
I think Matt Theissen of Relient K would be cool to talk to. I've never watched him just being him, but just from his song lyrics he seems interesting and thoughtful.
Michael Buble has a new cd coming on May 1! Come on May! Love that man's voice.
I want Internet at my house. I want it now. Screw patience, I'm throwing a temper tantrum until I get it. Oh wait, that won't help anything. Darn.
Bye...

Been awhile, and it will be longer


So, when your in the process of moving, sometimes things take longer than anticipated. For example, I thought it wouldn't take this long to get an internet service at the house. I'll take these few minutes at Panera to ensure anyone who's reading that, yes, I am still alive. More later, bye.

Links, because I can...


I've never played a Sims game in my life. That may change once My Sims comes out. It looks so adorable! I've long been a fan of Animal Crossing (a town just isn't a town until Bones lives in it!) and this looks similiar without being a knockoff. It probably doesn't look like a knockoff because it's from an established franchise. Oh well.

I love Pearls before Swine. It's hilarious. Really, it is. Rat is wonderfully selfish, rude, and wrong. Pig is gloriously naive and sweet. And the rest of the characters are just as funny. Even if the stupid crocs get annoying sometimes.

Relient K has a new cd coming out, and you can listen to it on their myspace. I adore a couple of the songs, and some are ok. I can't think of any that I've heard that I hate yet.

I love to watch The Office. I tried watching the British original, but besides needing to have the subtitles to understand the accents (rare for me) I couldn't get into the characters. But Pam, Jim, Dwight and even Michael Scott all make me smile. Even if it has sort of turned into the "Pam and Jim: Will they ever get together?" show, I still love it. Great big hug to my brother for getting me hooked.

If you haven't noticed I like LOST. I also like Jay and Jack's Lost Podcast. It's everything a podcast about a TV show should be.

I adore Due South. I miss that show. I go here when I get really nostalgic, but can't watch my DVDs.

Alton Brown is cool and everyone just needs to acknowledge that.

If life didn't get in the way, a good chunk of my money would go toward Daisy Rock Guitars.

Without GameFAQs there are quite a few games I'd never get through.

I think I'm done now. Thanks for reading.

Psych you out in the end


I miss Psych.
I fear I've missed every episode of the season... but I'm not sure.
I'm glad I downloaded the pilot back when itunes had it for free.
Shawn Spencer is one of those people that in real-life you would want to slap,but on tv is entertaining.
*sigh* soon I'll see more.
