“Inspired by the comments on Joe’s post about Nutella I’m stopping at Kroger on the way home and picking up a jar. I’ve not had any for awhile, but it and some ‘nilla wafers may be dinner tonight. With Dove dark chocolate squares for dessert.
And maybe some booze.
It’ll be a happy Friday one way or another, damnit!”

“IN TONIGHT’S SKY – Mar 29
The Moon was very close to Saturn last night. Tonight, itís very close to the bright star Regulus, which represents the heart of Leo the Lion. If placed at the center of our solar system, this star would shine 140 times brighter than the Sun. Venus sets at 10:27 p.m. Mars rises at 5:14 a.m. Jupiter rises at 1:11 a.m. Saturn sets at 5:06 a.m. “

disappointing
that in this transcription of Bill Bryson’s interview, they wrote “peaked my interest”
have you noticed
that the USPS tracking app on the web is the LEAST useful thing ever invented.
It is truly pitiful.
And this is the ultimate in non-committal (and I thought I had commitment issues):
“Status: Electronic Shipping Info Received
The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on March 27, 2007 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.”
Traditional marriage
I saw this on a page I was nosing around:
Is the “traditional marriage” dead? What is the state of our unions?”
If by traditional marriage they mean where women are basically slaves, where they are pregnant non-stop and aren’t educated because they aren’t considered to have souls, then I certainly hope so.
I don’t know why…
that I don’t just look at Wikipedia every time I want to know something. I Google everything and everyone (yes, even you.) and it delivers.
Oh baby, does it de-li-vah!
Anyway…
It does have everything (despite that wank who made up a bunch of stuff) it knows just about everything.
No, really.
(Oh wait, I know its because wikipedia on my Treo is useless whereas Google is marvelous.
Dammit.)
clarification
if you call me bitter for still being pissed off by my ex’s behavior, you will need to redefine your terms.
I’m angry that he behaved abominably.
If I was bitter, I would blame all men for that.
I don’t.
It was just him. I’ll be the first person to admit that.*
But just to be clear, I do have a very long memory. If you wrong me, you won’t be allowed in any position to do it again. I will be polite, but I am not relying on anyone but myself.
I actually learned this lesson a while back, but I lost my tiny little mind and decided to trust someone again at that level
Yes, ok, I am a dumbass.
It doesn’t mean that I am gonna get married again. There were things about marriage that I didn’t appreciate aside from the lump on the couch… like the fact that they changed all the names on my things (car title, 401k, stuff he’d never had a hand in before) to his name.
Excuse me? I changed my last name, not my first.
No really, it was all switched to HIS name. I hated not being a human in the eyes of society. I had no rights and he still did.
Modern progress, my ass.
I’m sure marriage has its uses (y’all can marry whoever you want… male, female or other-as long as they consent), however currently none of the uses are on my list.
*and frankly, those people who call me bitter are generally of the sort who haven’t been through this kind of shit. They have no perspective and so they can’t understand what a betrayal it is for the person who swore in front of their own god that they would love me above all others… and didn’t.
Kind of like having a male doctor try to understand menstrual cramps.
Oh yeah, and the word bitter comes up a LOT when I decline someone wanting to have me rely on them for something… what’s up with that?
Sigh.
A pile o’ Lion Brand Suede (garnet)
After a day full of crap, several WTF?!?! moments followed by the decision that I am officially breaking up with Oakland, Ca. for MANY MANY reasons, I received a box full of this lovely stuff in the mail.
I might do something like this with it…but I haven’t decided yet.
oh crap.
I just realized that a picture I just posted (scanned from a film print) was 10 years old.
I’d better get my heiney back to Paris tout de fekken’ suite.
