Aethelred the Unready
Current mood: sad
Category: Pets and Animals

I came home with two 8 week old hamsters yesterday and found my poor naked hamster, Aethelred, dead. He had been ailing lately, but it was very odd that he chose that day. He either held out until I found fuzzy replacements or he was so upset that I was coming home with them that he expired.........

I am finally buying a digital camera this weekend, so I will have lots of updated photos next week. Now if I could just get DSL......the Embarq lady actually laughed when we asked when we might get it in our area..... I'm just not willing to pay for Hughes Net right now. I don't need it, I just want it.

Girl.Constipated.
Category: Blogging

Okay- I'm not really constipated. I just love writing that.

I find these damn blogs so hard to keep up with- I'm not that interested in what I have to say, so I can't imagine that anyone else is. I love reading other people's blogs, though.

It's been a weird year so far. I've quit one job and started my own pet sitting business.....my father died the Wednesday before Mother's Day......I've had some interesting emotional upheavals. I'm in a pretty good headspace right now. Business is going well and I'm working on promoting myself (not my forte). I just upgraded to a DirecTV DVR for free.....Love them! Now if I could just get DSL. Embarq actually laughed when we asked about it (again) last week. I feel so much better today than I did yesterday. My poor truck, BB, stalled and rolled into a ditch yesterday- not my finest driving moment.........coolant is empty except for some nasty sludge @ the bottom of the coolant tank. Crikey. Spent my day off getting BB towed to my awesome mechanic.....had to go switch trucks with my mom- I am so country now. I have two 1980's era trucks. So Grizzly Adams. I had planned on spending all day yesterday in the pool where I am pet/housesitting but I only got to spend a few hours there. I work @ 2PM today so I had planned on spending this AM in the pool too but there are burly men working on the house addition until 4 PM. Le sigh. But I do have that lovely DVR coming.....and I'm looking at kawaii sites online- always makes me happy.

Etsy
Current mood: chipper
Category: Art and Photography

I have bought two lovely paintings from etsy.com

One from theblackapple (she's on myspace- check her out) and one from ashleyg (don't know if she's on here or not). I cannot wait until they arrive. I'm going to have to rearrange my room to fit them- I have so much art on the walls already. I wish that I could paint or draw.......

I am drinking sweet, milky coffee and watching Extreme Celebrity Surgery- It makes you feel very good about yourself. I'm also shopping for art on Etsy.com. I love that site- so many options for cuteness and creepiness.

I am so enjoying being a "free agent." I quit my job @ GSC in January and I've been concentrating on pet sitting since then. I am making just as much if not more money and I have so much less stress and so much more free time. So nice.

Ooh...I just found some great stuff- gotta shop now!

Hello darkness, my old friend
Current mood: awake
Category: Writing and Poetry

God, I haven't been on here in ages. I love that I keep seeing people that I know by sight on here.

I really am far too lazy to keep this up, but I'm bored right now.

The Westie that I am pet sitting is (finally!) asleep and I find that I cannot sleep. There is a really interesting show entitled "The Human Behaviour Experiments" on Court TV right now. They had a segment on about Kitty Genovese- I had never paid all that much attention to her story until I read the Whimper of Whipped Dogs by Harlan Ellison. My reaction to that story was almost physical- I was so appalled and fascinated by it that I read everything that I could find about KG.

The prison experiments are on right now. This is so fascinating. I feel like I've been rather lowbrow lately- too much j-horror from Netflix.

Saw X-3 Monday in between work shifts. I think that Brett Ratner shied away from the political aspects of the story.

I'm finally getting sleepy. I think I'll brush my teeth and head to bed.

Leave the cannoli.
Current mood: bitchy
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

Wow. I really am too lazy to keep up with this thing.

Mmmmm.......cannoli...........

I am suffering from severe movie withdrawal and may implode. I haven't seen anything in the theaters since 'Narnia' and that was before Christmas.

I did watch "Three....Extremes" this a.m. I had a headache all day,too. Perhaps there is a connection. I particularly enjoyed Takashi Miike commentary. So unhelpful!

Crikey! I need to leave work and go home.

Five Things I Treasure Most: My Teeth
Current mood: sleepy
Category: Life

I'm going to see "MirrorMask" sometime today. I am so happy. Most of my life is spent reading, eating, working, watching TV,and going to movies. Perhaps I should take up another hobby? I used to write all the time- short stories, essays, poems- but I haven't written much in years. I also used to drive all over the state taking photos, but gas prices are too high to do that. Maybe I could give up my latte habit and spend more on gas. Nawww....I'd die.

I'm still chuckling over the Weight Watcher cards in I'm Not Me. The Soup is Love. Oh God.

I'm just rambling now. I think I'll finish my coffee and take a shower.

You know.........I like that movie. Early Clive Barker.

Damn, I'm lazy. How do people write these things every day? I never cared to keep a diary or journal- maybe you have to be that sort of person to keep this up- whatever sort of person that is..........

See my vest..........
