Happy birthday, aurilly! ♥

( they say so too! )

:D

It's kind of funny that I can tell Oreo's pissed off, "put me down!" meow from across the house, and also that said meow can rouse Butcher out of a sound sleep. xD Not that he cared, he went right back to sleep.

All day it's been so beautifully warm. It's 52 degrees right now, I've got both my windows wide open. ♥ Pretty soon I'm going to have to switch to nightgowns. I'm looking forward to spring flowers... I spent most of the day lounging around and reading. I finished If Not, Winter and I am officially switching my answer to the oft-asked "what dead person would you want to bring back and meet?" to Sappho. ♥

Surefire way not to get a job interview: put the wrong phone number on your application. I AM A MORON. *facepalm* It was an online application, so I fixed it a week after I submitted it and you'd think I'd know the number by now... no. I am not so bright.

My mom told me I get a pass on church AND doing nursing home visits (oh thank god I hate doing those so so so much) if I clean the house and make dinner tomorrow. Deal! I'm even considering staying up all night cleaning my room so I can make cinnamon rolls from scratch for everyone before they go to church.

Awesome song for you all: The Puppini Sisters - Walk Like An Egyptian It's like... the Andrews Sisters from the 40s covering an 80s song but they're from the 00s! IT'S AWESOME. DOWNLOAD AND LISTEN.

Links, in order from "I hate the world" to "the world is pretty cool!":

In Turkey, 'honor suicides' are replacing 'honor killings' as women are forced by their families to take their own lives rather than a family member having to go to jail for killing them, mostly for moronic little 'infractions of honor' like talking to a man who isn't a relative, or wearing tight clothes. The 21st century, motherfuckers. Join it. Please.

The Pope is lying about condoms to scare people out of using them. Yes, using condoms gives you MORE of a chance of getting HIV, according to His Holiness. Isn't there something in the Bible about bearing false witness?

Bill introduced to keep the First Lady from... doing pretty much anything useful. Because the First Lady needs to focus on the menus for state dinners, not on any kind of real political business...

here comes the upswing!

Neil Patrick Harris modeling suits in GQ! Mmm, NPH. Mmm, suits. I really need to grab this month's GQ if it's got Neil AND Zach in it. :3

( who watches the little watchmen? )

Crossover ficlet between Heroes and Chuck: Sylar brings his new laptop to the Buy More to get 'fixed'. xD GO READ IT, IT'S AWESOME.


A kitten licking a Fennec fox. SO EFFING CUTE


This is a real manatee, but it looks like a plushie to me! N'awwwwww!


Bidding on my fics is up to 10 pounds (that's about thirteen bucks)! Yaaaay. I am completely astounded at how many auctions have broken $100 by now. :O That's awesome. My tarot readings still haven't hit $3, come on people, just because you know you can probably have me for free doesn't mean you shouldn't pitch in for charity! :D?

...oh man I just realized Lisa gave me homework to do for our next session and that's on Monday and I haven't done it. That said, I think it's silly to write letters to things I've lost. "Dear ____, sorry you aren't around any more, wish I could get five years of my life back, eat a dick." "Dear Plattsburgh, miss you and your prettiness and my friends and the cheap, quality weed." "Dear Heather, miss you-- *twenty minutes of crying*-- love, your mommy."

Yeah, no...

Final note: do any other authors get freaked out when the overwhelming response to something you didn't even think was that great is "SEQUEL NOW"? Because I am completely bemused and vaguely unsettled whenever that happens.
