migraines = everything sucks

At least tonight I can take my meds for it.
Speaking of, I'm back on my lexapro. It feels like a defeat, but I know it's really a victory because I saw what was happening and took care of myself before it got out of control.
Or something like that.

So, I'm having a bit of a time finding pictures for the Local Adventure that I'm planning, so I figured in the mean time, I'll supply you (you know who you are ;) ) with pics from previous local adventures (More on my flickr account, see link at right, look under sets 3/6 and beachy) -






If you do swing by my flickr account, just be warned that nature isn't the only 'local beauty' (apparently I feel witty tonight) featured on there...
I may be the only one on there to never appear in my underwear or swimsuit...

The internet....

always comes back to Dr. Who and Harry Potter.
frequently Joss Whedon, occasionally some popular anime.
But ALWAYS HP and DW.

Icon examples to follow. LOTS and LOTS and BUNCHES of icons.
Just a sample of my nerd-icon collection.
Squee.

PS - bonus points if you can identify (1)the icon that's only related to this subject in my head, (2) The crossover icons

"In all fairness, we got you first."

So, Tomorrow I was scheduled for clashing mandatory shifts at both my jobs.
Crap, huh?

I was discussing it with a boss at the job with what is usually the most flexible schedule, and she wasn't backing down (I'd rather be there anyway). See the quote in my title.

I did manage to convince my other boss that she needed to change my shift because, well, they had me first.

And despite Boss #2's bad attitude, I FEEL SO LOVED ;)

no, I actually feel like kicking Boss#2 for repeatedly changing my schedule without notice.




On a different note, I was driving Bean home from work tonight, and LITTLE BABY RACCOONS ran out in front of my car. THEY ALMOST DIED. I was very upset, I think I was screaming "oh my god little babies" or something of the sort.
But they were ok.

Well well well

Look at me, all fancy, using draft.blogger.com to make a post... ;)

too bad it kinda SUCKED. I coulda made this post in the regular one in half the time.

Beginning to feel like a safari

I seriously just want to know what the frig the freakish plants overtaking our front steps are, but can you find them on the internet? Nooooooo. That would be too easy. Particularly the spiny, unfriendly looking one, but I'm pretty concerned over the fact that the 8 FOOT TALL one seems to be suffering some sort of bug problem. IT'S FLAT AGAINST THE HOUSE. I don't want to deal with an infestation because the building manager's too lazy to deal with them himself (assuming he ever shows up again).

Stupid internet.

updating? Too lazy

So I was going to update this, add a 'blog list' and some favorites, maybe a new feature or two, figure out why my weather pixie isn't working, etc.

But I'm just not feeling motivated. Huh.

La Kermesse is tonight... big local event, fireworks and block party and crap. Closing the damn street is a pain in the ass though.

Speaking of the street, turns out some super-skank we went to high school with lives on this street too. dammmit.
