Blatherings of an Extroverted Bookworm

Excellent advice about the etiquette of communicating with infertile people.

Thanks to breakableheart for the head's up on this.

It's past 3:30am and I'd really like to know why the hell I'm still awake. I guess I have to much crap on my mind. I hate when this happens. The worst part is I'll probably be caught in this cycle for the next few days. Shit.

As sucky as night classes are, there is surely nothing worse (class schedule-wise) than Saturday-fucking-morning. I can't wait till this semester is over. This is bullshit.

amazonvera mentioned artist David Ho in her journal recently and I liked this site enough to share :).

Boy, am I seriously procrastinating from doing my damn homework. Sigh.

From the MST3K people will be coming Cinematic Titanic. I'm looking forward to this, oh, the crush I had on Joel back in the day ^_^.

This year for Halloween, we are doing jack shit! Eh, that's ok.

I got to the day care center later on in the day, so I missed most of the babies that were in their costumes. There was a 14 month old dressed as a tiger, and a 2 1/2 year old dressed as Robin Hood. On the walk home from work I saw a lot of people in their costumes. Among the little ones were: a Peter Pan, a witch, a fairy, a hobo. Among the adults a Mike Myers from "Halloween" and a couple dressed as Wayne and Garth from "Wayne's World" (they were across the street from me when I saw them. at first I just noticed a young woman wearing a baseball cap, then I noticed the guy next to her was wearing this terrible blond wig and black glasses, ha. I looked back at her, and sure enough her hat said "Wayne's World. I thought that was pretty neat).

My older brother called me earlier just as I was heading out the door for the center, he wanted to pick me up so I could go Trick or Treating with him and my nephew little J. Dang! It sucked having to say that I couldn't. I haven't seen little J. since his birthday party almost 2 months ago :(. Things have just been kinda crazy on their end of things, and I have class on Saturdays which hasn't helped. Anyway, little J. had been talking for weeks about being Darth Vader and I'm very glad they were able to rustle that up for him. My dad was able to go with them to the mall so little J. could beg for candy, then my brother and the kid headed off for the main drag in Bayonne. I called earlier to see how it was going, my brother said they were about to head into a party that one of the businesses had organized. He told me that he'd been concerned just a few minutes before that a guy in a particularly scary mask would scare little J. and he started to tell him not to be afraid, it was only a mask only to be told "That's ok dad, I can get him with my light saber if he bothers me!". Heh.

Oh, fings just looked this over and said "Hey! We're not doing jack shit! We ordered chinese food!". Ok, so, we are going to stuff ourselves with chinese food and then watch a movie while cuddled up on the sofa ^_^.

What the fuck , LJ, why aren't you sending me comments to my email?!?!

Your Hair Should Be Purple

Intense, thoughtful, and unconventional. You're always philosophizing and inspiring others with your insights.

What I love about this is that 11 1/2 years ago my hair WAS purple :). For only a few weeks,but it was fun.

I had my CDA Workshop class on Saturday and for once I didn't leave dragging my ass and grumbling curses under my breath ;). Class was dismissed a little early and that was a nice surprise. After some loafing about at home we took the bus to the Port Authority and bought tickets for "The Darjeeling Limited". Then we took a walk around Times Square for a bit and poked around Virgin Megastore (there were some plush "Nightmare Before Christmas" dolls I was DYING to buy, but I was good) and then headed over to Dallas BBQ for some dinner. Mmmmmm :); though I had rotiserrie chicken and fried shrimp (that was effing delicious). After dinner we hopped across the street for the movie. We really enjoyed it, I think I enjoyed it a bit more than fings, but I'm a bigger sucker than he is for Wes Anderson movies. We hadn't had a nice date night like that in a while.

Yesterday was a good day, got lots of chores done and then loafed comfortably later on in the day.
