the kings speech failed to hold my attention.

Really? I was enthralled by the power play between Albert and Lionel. To have the nerve to tell royalty we are equals...god, I got such a kick out of it throughout the whole movie.

having been to chicago several times, i gotta say i don't see the appeal. *sigh* No one ever does. I hate bringing it up now, with most anyone, because of this. then i'm more of a live a bit away from the big cities but close enough to visit them sorta people. I live 3 hours from Phoenix and San Di...

Petrie

None at all, unless the numbing injections counted...but that's gone now, finally. I'm just a control freak and the more I start slipping back into a stressed out place, the more I try to control stuff and that is all about the details. I just happen to have some happiness-inducing details surroundi...

I got in four movies this weekend: The Kids Are Alright, You Again, The King's Speech, and an indie called Good Dick. I won't say much about the first three. The Kids Are Alright was funny, authentic and perhaps naively hopeful in some ways but that's not such a bad thing, is it? You Again...was a c...

Sent the following to my dad just a minute ago: "Thanks, Dad, that looks like a great position. However, I will pass on applying for it. It's my hope that the next time I apply for a position, later this year, it will be outside of [city]. In the Chicago area, to be more exact. :) Love you.&quo...

My dad works for DES, so he sees a lot of job postings at work. A lot. Ever since my probation ended, he has been asking me a lot of questions about my plans. To him, the library was just something to do in the meantime. He's not entirely wrong about that but for me, it is something to do in AZ, in ...

Petrie

Oh you're definately full of s*** and a freak, but not because of that.

TouchÃ©, my zombie friend.

Petrie

Dear You, I'm sorry but I'm having a really hard time not resenting you at the moment. I have tried, numerous times and in numerous ways over the years, to be, if not a friend, then at least friendly to you, and all you've done is, if it was even for me, shown me pity and then ignored the fact that ...

Bob, As I lay here, figuratively weeping over the amount of money I transferred to my credit card, money that should be sitting pretty in my Chicago/Savings account, mouth still numb -resulting in some oddly fun half-smiles at strangers I passed earlier on the walk home- and the smell of freshly lau...

While you guys fight the fight against pink and for men in skirts, I'll be taking up the mantle for non-traditional adult female roles, as pertaining to romantic relationships and child-bearing. For the love of all that is holy, why do people have to first of all ask about my children/husband, as if...

Petrie

Ali...I don't know if you know this but you have a baby growing inside you, from the looks of things.

In my cousins first scan the baby looked like a chicken more than a baby.

This made me laugh way too hard.

Petrie

I love it, Steph; it's a great look for you. :)

Page 3? Not kosher. Today I am thankful for my mom. I mean, I almost always am (unless I'm being a s***) but she is the only person I know who is consistently/continuously interested in my "art" projects. I will never make money off this stuff; in fact, it's a money-vacuum. I will never be...

(In honor of summer reading programs) Capture something that is related to reading/books.

Such a fun song: Junior Senior - Move Your Feet

Such a silly video and coincidentally, my plans for tomorrow (not doing anything, that is, NOT reenacting that video): Bruno Mars - The Lazy Song

They had some worries with me...but the end result is I'm okay. Hooray!

Phew. I want a healthy momma as much as I want a healthy Tiny One.

Petrie

I got to do readers' advisory at work today (you'd think this wouldn't be so rare...at least, you'd hope but you'd be wrong in my library!) and I knew what the bleep I was talking about (I tend to not fare so well over adult fiction but this was not that).

Petrie

This is going to sound stupid after the last few things in here but I'm afraid of being replied to (for email, PMs, etc.). Even from friends, sometimes. In fact, the people who already know this about me sometimes have fun with the subject lines because they know I'll freak out and stare at it for f...

pictures!

Ahem. *coughcough*

Thumbs Down: Got an email this morning, that I discovered just before lunch, about part of my flight being changed. I then spent an hour on the phone fixing it. Thumbs Up: It's fixed. Thumbs Could Go Either Way Though Really It's Probably Not a Big Enough Deal Either Way So We'll Just Call This a Si...

Petrie

Is it bad that I'm hoping my husband doesn't get a job in the south? Based off this: I really don't fit in and its really hard to like living in a place where i can't make friends because i just don't fit in. I'd say no. It really is its own culture there and sometimes people are incompatible with ...

Petrie

You were made to do this, Kelly. Go get 'em and good luck. :)

I'm almost positive that came out when I was living in Tucson, so I want to say November or December of 2004. At least, I have possible memories of talking to Goat with the TV on for background noise.

At any rate, my family hardly ever calls Phoenix by anything other than "Puh-ho-nix" now.

Petrie

I very selfishly want you to end up in the PacNW, so I can hopefully see you in October.
I have already informed the Mr that if we move i will be visiting Portland in October to see you!

I will now try not to get my hopes up too high, just in case.

Petrie

no offense to the south Pfft, it's the South...it deserves all the offense it can get. ;) I very selfishly want you to end up in the PacNW, so I can hopefully see you in October. Less selfishly, I hope your shoulder heals up nicely and I hope jobs are found wherever it will best suit you and the Mr.

phoenix ... "faux-nix" ... wrong.

One of my favorite commercials ever.

:) I don't think it's working. Maybe it's because I haven't worn my suspenders in a while. That's probably where the power lies. Has to be the suspenders... I say put those puppies on, get a pair of giant glasses, and try harder : P *nod* It is what Steve would do, after all. I will try tighter pan...

Petrie

whether or not it would be considered an abuse of my mod powers to...

Yes. The answer to this question is always "yes." It would be. If you mean this as a joke, it's not funny. You are NOT a mod. You have admin powers, that's not the same thing. Comprehend this, please.

sucks to be 31 and have to start getting back into that scene. I'm 28 and I haven't successfully navigated that scene once yet. All my dating experience is...atypical, we'll say. I think I will keel over if I ever have anything resembling a normal, healthy relationship. Hell, I think I'd keel over ...

I laughed at his link; I thought it was clever. I also laughed at Jota's response. I almost made the same joke. Me too, actually. I thought so. I simply couldn't pass up the opportunity to tease him. It's not often I get the chance to do so, even if he's just going to roll his eyes at me and think ...

a couple of trips to Kroger for supplies (read: burgers, brats and beer). They sell those? You mean after all this time and emotion/energy I've been investing in this one in an attempt to woo him Urkel style, I could have skipped the "spending time with" one part and just purchased one in...

Petrie

I don't like the proper pronunciation of "roulette", so I shall henceforth say it improperly as rue-lay. In my head. Because I don't want people looking at me (any more than they sometimes do) as though I'm an idiot.

Petrie

and some for adults that didn't get a chance on them...

They were before my time and I only have one because Adam got one off Nomi, I think, and gifted it to me. I have no idea where I put it. I might check my dresser later, which, seriously, is the last place I would expect it to be.
