anagramofbrat | Today, in chunks (Reply)

in no particular order, today I...

got my insurance quote for the year. Looks like Webber&Grinnell's offering the best price right now. Still, 2K just to insure the car... *whine* Explain to me why i need to drive again? Oh yeah, office in Westfield. And I really like doing it. I mean, goddamn... a crack habit would be cheaper. *whine moar* More reasons to quietly curse my mother for not letting me take driver ed in high school.
managed to get through the first half of today with a killer headache. Coffee and a nap upon returning home fixed this but christ, when I got back it was bad enough to have me in tears.
Worked. Ugh.
cranked about the state of the house, especially my room; it's something of a cesspit, and I never really got up the wherewithall to clean it. Pretty much all I was up to doing today was getting the chicken made, which turned out fine because it came out delicious. I think the secret to getting it absolutely perfect was using actual onion instead of onion powder. Must remember that for future reference. And it was pretty cool hanging with Chris, jaicat and veestah tonight, epecially since the evening involved telling stories, Mario Kart, and trooping outside to see a satellite flare. Thank you, Chris, for leaving me the web site that predicts when and where they are, too, that was WICKED cool, and I will be doing that again. Really need to see if I can find my old telescope when I head back to NYC, this place is pretty damned awesome for stargazing and associated things. May have to take up a bit of an astronomy habit.
had two massive(ly hilarious) text message FAILs today. Upon being asked what was for dinner by jaicat, I texted back "Orange juice children, rice and peas." The second one was me texting cell23 "Got plenty left over. want me to wrap up a slave for you?" ("slave" and "plate" are both 7-5-2-8-3.) I think I'm done texting until sleep and more coffee are had.
Do any of you Squillage folk by any chance have a can of WD40? I got the curtain brackets up for the front window, but the rod's stuck at too-short.
Wrapped up the day heading over to cell23's to bring him the aformentioned slave/plate (shut up) and to hang a little with the kids before they went to bed; had a lot of fun showing them the pictures from last week on my iPod and showing them how to flick and zoom through them. I found it super hilarious that after being shown how it worked, instead of using his own hand, Mr. Lovebug instead picked up my hand and used my finger to move through the pictures for him. Also grabbed a little chill time with cell23 after they went to bed, which was pretty awesome as I hadn't seen him since Monday.
Have Boobyhaven to myself for the second night in a row, due to Cara being stuck in Vermont, and, due to nap earlier, am only marginally sleepy. I'm thinking shower, WoW, Soup, clean and work.
