My parents visited this weekend. That was nice.

Shouldn't I be the one who finds my parents' idiosyncracies annoying? And Leah should find them charming.

your grammar confuses me.

"Your grammar frightens and confuses me.....I'm only a caveman!"

Hey, regarding parents, I love them, I find their idiosyncracies fine until I gotta spend time with them. I think S.O.'s are a good source of relatively unbiased opinions on relatives - and they're their relatives now too, so they're entitled to some opinions. Oy, this is why we don't go home!

It's a lull here at the office, so I have an opportunity to update my journal. (Yes, I vist SG at work. Yes, I suppose it's a firing waiting to happen) I'm happy with the temping and all, but, like, half my bosses are recent college graduates. It can be unnerving.

You have no idea how close this entry came to being the final installment...

Thanks for the werd up. Makes me sad that was the last one. You were a truly great patron as well.

All melancholy today. frown

Went to see Scout Niblett perform last night in Brooklyn, thanks to AlexKarina's wide live performance knowledge. My Very Special Lady Friend was at work, so she couldn't come. so it was just me on my lonesome. If I knew how to contact you and thought you might be interested, I would've asked you to come with me. Anyway, the show was great, though...

lol, it seems late in the season for breast adventures but too am having them. I won a nifty shirt at the locale drag show this friday by showing mine off. Damn things are finally paying their way.

Now, I know I just told you to admire my pics, but I think you should go look at the latest. It's got a nipple! A girl nipple! Now you're clicking, aintcha?

We watched Bowling for Columbine last night. I agree with a lot of Mr. Moore's beliefs, but that movie was something of a mess. His comparisons to Canada (which were fascinating) had...

She brought the umbrella back in one piece. I was cool. This morning when I left for the office, she was all, "don't you want to take your umbrella?" She's a keeper.

We watched Election last night. It's good but it just reminded me of how much I liked the book. Alexander Payne (director) lets himself hate the characters but Tom Perrotta never indulges. He...

I'm crabby. I see a stupid fight comin' and I'm not looking forward to it.

See, VSLF is terrible about losing umbrellas. She's lost, maybe, four umbrellas in the past few months. Yesterday there was only one umbrella left, a relatively poor-quality one, and it was raining. We both had to go to work, and I agreed she could have it. I walked to work...

alexkarina:
Oh wait, so I'm the one who was obsessive because someone broke my heart and never paid me hundreds of dollars they owed me, and here you are obsessing over a stupid umbrella!? Sheesh! Meanwhile, if she loses umbrellas a lot, I doubt she would even notice which one she is taking in the morning either, right? Just go buy a whole bunch of umbrellas before this ruins your relationship! smile
lizfitts:
Uh oh. I'd be righteously indignant, but not pissed....unless she loses it! It all depends on whether she brings back the umbrella. If she doesn't, holy hell!

Labor Day was blah. We were obligated to clean our living room. We were half-way through when I realized that it had become cleaning and rearranging, which I never signed on for. I have to give just the right amount of input for each arrangement: too much I'm over-critical (which I'm sure I often am), too little and I'm making her do all the work....

As you may know, last night was BKFreak's now-legendary party, constructed of rooftop, barbecue, live band, transvestism, and alcohol, but the kitten was the mortar that held it all together. Go read BKFreak's entry for the full run-down on how awesome it was.

VSLF and I had a "blast", as the kids today would say. I finally got to meet the charming MrsMF....

VSLF had dinner with some of her colleagues. It seems the subject of the night was her plans for the rest of the evening; namely, to go with me to a CakeNYC event. The guys were all can you get me in?, and the ladies were that sounds like it could be fun... let me know how it goes, maybe I'll come next time....

I'm sure you're familiar with schadenfreude, the delicious and dark enjoyment of someone else's misfortune. I came across another fun German term recently: steppenwitz ("staircase wit"), the witty retort that occurs to you a few minutes too late.

Hate the Germans? You can also use the much more common l'esprit d'escalier. Harder to remember, I think.

If you have a good heart and...

Saturday was luna's rooftop party, which was great. The weather was so good, but all the girls in their short skirts got cold. Pssht. __underscore_girl__ has a new amazing tattoo. Ask to see it. My honeymoon with the drink called Sparks is over.

VSLF was supposed to be on my arm for the evening, but the phone rang: "Leah knows she's on call, right?"....
