Note to self:
Fay, when this thought: "Hmm. That's an accident waiting to happen!" saunters through your brain,
act upon it!
Do not leave the half-full wine glass perched atop a medium-sized tower of books on your bedside table, just waiting for the cat or a your elbow to knock it over. PARTICULARLY do not switch out all the lights and then wander towards the bedside table with your hands flailing around in search of the bedside light. I mean, really, Fay? What kind of IDIOT would do that? And send red wine splattering all over the pale wallpaper, and all over the floor, and soaking into the mattress? What kind of slovenly idiot?
sighs
God. I am a PARODY of myself, I really am.
sighs again
Clearly technology too defeats me. Man. Way to rock that blonde stereotype, Fay.
Aww, poor Fay. Well, I've got dark coloring and I've managed to knock over a glass of water from the exact same spot on the side table at least three times in the past month, if that makes you feel any better. I have not yet learned to stop putting water there.
our new cat thinks that might nightstand is the best place to sit. so far I have remembered only capped bottles of water ...
beth, that sounds like he is starting to settle in nicely, if he has claimed some furniture for himself, that he graciously allows you to put water on.
Oh, hey, guess what LJ & DW told me?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SESKA!!
happy birthday Seska.
AndyCat is very comfortable. But I need to get him chipped. He is an escape artist. I'd prefer him to be an indoor cat, but reality is different.
Aww, thankies for the hippo birdies, amych and beth!
I am having the existential crisis that I expect accompanies most 31st birthdays. I am soothing with Torchwood (fuck, that's good TV), wine and sushi. Also, got taken to a theme park today (The Girl and I are addicted to these). The adrenaline tires me out and means I can only usually stay about half a day, but I did attempt this, and was very proud of myself. (4.8G, 0-80mph now in 1.8 secs - because they had to speed it up...!)
Back to Torchwood. It's about to be Day 5, and even The Girl's "that's not London, it's Cardiff" and "not very subtle" and similar comments can't distract me from being quite taken with this one.
Happy Birthday, Seska!
Torchwood, wine and sushi sounds wonderful. Except for my
bitter disappointment
with the most recent Torchwood, as discussed in spoiler font in Boxed Set. Also, the 30s are a most wonderful decade. Enjoy!
The roller coaster, never gonna happen.
happy birthday Seska!!!
Am awake. 6ish hours until Set© date with GeekyGamerGirl.
Seska, kudos to you, there is no way I'd be able to do that roller coaster. The little Miners Roller coaster at Disney Land (forget the name, but so not fast) does me in. Too much wind in the face means I can't breath, which means Mild!Panic, which is bad.
Fay, no worries. It happens. There are plenty of times when people look at things and go "that could be bad, but, how to avoid it? No way. Lets hope for the best!". I suppose you could put the wine in an empty water bottle, but then you are drinking wine from a water bottle, and that just seems all kinds of wrong. So, next time, when you put the glass of wine down, turn on the light, so you don't have to do the blind outstretch hands thing.
