Thanks Pix and sarameg and cashmere and whoever else responded. I am very excited. I was so excited that I completely forgot that I had plans to see Mary Karr speak tonight; got there on time anyway and found her to be extremely funny and entertaining. She reminds me of a less neurotic Carrie Fisher.
I have a lot of coins from all over, too. Sometimes I think it's charming, and sometimes I just thing "ack, more clutter!"
Speaking of clutter, megan walker will be glad to know that I took SEVEN bags to Goodwill today.
I've got tomorrow off of work--I'm filling up my car with my two boxes of stuff and my old dvd player first thing in the morning (well, second thing after I do laundry) and taking it over to Goodwill, then stopping by Target for the Star Trek dvd and the Glee CD and then the grocery store for the stuff I didn't get on Friday night. Then I get to come home and watch a movie while I get back to cross-stitching. That's after I sleep in--I am not setting my alarm and will see how long I get to sleep.
Man, I hate the Castle opening credits. Almost as much as the Leverage ones. Which I hope don't last long. But they both take lines I like from the show and beat them into the ground.
Congrats javachik! Nice payoff for all the hard work!
I concur, ita.
I know a 90 year old man in pain all the time from a shingles infection. So Javachik, let me thank you and the company you work for on his behalf.
ugh. my home computer always hangs up and scritches on hulu, where the hell am I gonna be able to see last night's Castle. WAH.
ION - wearing new shoes with brown dress and tights - AWESOME!
ran into a kid who graduated from a school the year I worked there - 4 years ago. I wasn't a teacher or directly involved witht he kids and he recalled my name. That kid was crazy good at stuff like that even back in highschool, if he doesn't at least try at politics at some point, I will be shocked.
I'm pretty sure the old francs were the coins that worked as tokens in the Boston subway, back in the day. Good times.
I had plans to see Mary Karr speak tonight
Oh, she's fantastic. I saw her and Frank McCourt together once upon a time at the 92nd St. Y and they were hilarious as they compared childhoods.
Congratulations, java!
News from the vet is that the dog is much better, and has finally eaten something that stayed down. I saw her briefly last night when I dropped off her seizure medicine, and she was about as energetic as a dishrag. She should be able to come home this afternoon.
