I'm in such a stupidly cranky mood. It's Friday and I should be all "yay weekend!", but instead I'm all "grouch grouch blah". My mother is away all weekend, so I'm bored with no one to talk to, but I'm too much of grumpy gus right now to want to call up a friend. Maybe I'll just build a tiny blanket fort that I can live in all by myself as a grumpy hermit and never leave.

I think I need to give my kitten Olive a copy of "He's Just Not That Into You" regarding her big sister Agnes. She and Agnes were buds for a while but now Agnes has an eye infection and I think it's making her cranky and Olive just wants to cuddle her all the time and play with her all the time and follow her everywhere and Agnes is not having it.

I'm feeling really down and lonely tonight. I just want to fast forward my life to 2 years in the future.

This was the fortune I received from my fortune cookie last night. I put it on my laptop because I feel it's relevant right now.

IN BED

SAID THE ACTRESS TO THE BISHOP

In case you were wondering whether eating broccoli rabe could make your pee smell like broccoli rabe, I can officially tell you that it can.

Possibly going to look at a dog on Monday... not sure if I'm 100% ready yet! But this will be the first dog I am going to see in person, and I am just going to meet her. I know I have plenty of time and there are other dogs out there who need homes, so I don't have to rush into anything.

But you'd probably feel pretty disorientated suddenly finding yourself down the salt mine being prodded by our robot overlords!

(In my mind this is the only thing that happens any time in "the future").

ETA: I hope you feel better soon!

I've booked my plane and train tickets for my US trip! On a related note, does anyone have a couch I can crash on/shower I can use in NYC on 15 November, DC on 16 November, or Chicago on 18 November? I'll happily treat you to a meal at your favourite (reasonably priced) restaurant. :)

I have a couch for you near Philly if you want to come here instead ;-)

Why is it as soon as I have put lush henna in my hair I have a sudden urge to take a nap. No Saturday afternoon nap for me :(

I've slept with it in before. Just wrap it up well (clingfilm, shower cap), and put an old towel or some dark tee-shirts over your pillow (or instead of).

I've also slept with hair dye in with no disasters--even overnight. Do what dropscone says, it works.

I'm working out the travel arrangements for a wedding I'm flying across the US for, driving 3+ hours upstate, paying for two nights at a b&b, and well, they're getting a card from me. I hate this shiitake but of course, I agreed to it nearly two years ago.

Ok so I'm out on a walk with Chester when this big white truck with tinted windows pulls up next to us, but since no windows roll down or doors open, we just keep walking. And then they slowly start to creep with us so I just stop and stare for a few seconds when they finally roll down their window and just STARE. Finally one of the girls ask show old Chester is and I tell her. Then what his breed is. And NO response or even hint of a smile or anything, everyone in the truck is just staring at us. I'm all awkward and smiling and holding a mini bouquet of wild flowers and tripping over Chester and just thinking "am I about to get my dog jacked at 9:30 in the morning?" but they finally drive off and we ran home.

What the fork.

Hahahaha, thank you! That made me laugh. :)

Fee- that is super creepy!

I done the clingfilm and towel. Woke up fit to vomit and the smell from the henna wasn't helping. Damn PMS is kicking my asparagus now.

I think I'm the only one who actually likes the smell of henna, haha.

lol! I'm just not overly keen on it. I think the urge to vomit is mostly to do with being a woman and what is due to arrive tomorrow.

whinewhinewhine. I want to go see a movie, but the closest one playing is in Capitol Hill and the bus ride over there will be long and I have to go a new route because they cut out the bus that goes downtown from my house (which, um, what?) and I won't have the ability to reroute if I miss my bus from my phone because Apple Maps! has no bus routing function. Yes, I could easily figure it out, and yes, a forty minute bus ride isn't that bad with a transfer here, and yes, I have a bus pass so I'm not paying for my fare, but it's just enough to make me consider staying home.
But I wanna see the movie, dammit.

god forking damn porridge is great

My salad starting tasting really nasty about halfway through. So hungry and poor I kept eating... Hopefully my tummy won't be mad at me.

I decided to watch the first episode of Breaking Bad earlier today, to see what all of the fuss was about. Fast forward to now and I'm in the middle of the second season.
