The boy invited me to the shooting range with him sometime. I think I could be into taking out my frustrations that way. I mean, why not?

It's the second day of the year, and I've learned how to knit! 
What have you done so far?
Edited to add that I've yet to see a person on CSI: Miami that didn't look like s/he could be a model.

Nursed a hangover?

I finally stopped being the push over manager and did my first disciplinary write ups ever.
It felt pretty good and hopefully shocked a couple of my staff into not being lazy asses when I'm not around.

Back from the east coast with a snuffly nose and dry skin from too much handwashing and sanitizer. I'm also a little sad because I miss the boy's family, but we had a wonderful visit.
This is probably my last entry for 2005...this is an odd year that feels longer than it really is. So much stuff happened - you can't have the amazing without...

The best was a site with computerized leopard-print and many giant-font sentences with repeated use of "Rad!!!" "Ossum!!!" and "Kewl!!!"
There was also a great fictional-website-design-company one, Bud Uggly Web Design. It was just tremendous. Every word was misspelled, all the graphics clashed and overlapped, tons of tiny pop-ups would open, and pointer-arrows and buttons wouldn't work. Everything was funny, even the public message board. At the time I was knee-deep in my tennis-fanaticism and would post as "evil Martina Hingis."
Actually here's a link to them; I guess it last updated in 1997, and it looks like they cleaned up some of the spelling and design!
edit PS- Yeah, actually I'm having a great laugh at that site again. Open up some of the pages, like "BUd UGlly Ordering Page" or "BuD UgllY DesiGn-FeedBack."

Awws. Noooo, you can't leave for a week. 
A "haha" every now and then seems OK to me, but what is it with people that type things like "hahaha" after every. single. thing. they type?
This question brought to you by moi, via IMs from Jeremy.
Don't even get me started on the "LMAO" crap. D:
lawls.

Oh no, it's totally unholiday related. He's a game programmer. They're finishing up their game and trying to meet their last deadlines, then they get a few weeks off.

I did go there 
but it was too cold to sit idly; I had to keep walkin', believe me.
All aside, it was quite a great place... even before you get in to pay, walking up along the 20-story pine trees. Just down the hill, there are tennis courts, other memorials, (seasonal) rose gardens. One could say it bears zero resemblance to a toxic garbage dump, yes.

I just blew $147 on finding more professional-yet-edgy clothes for my new job. My t-shirt-jeans-sneakers wardrobe needs updating. It'll be worth it since after my probationary period, I'll be able to finally get some help for these polycystic ovaries and tired eyeballs.

The only lyric of my ex's that I couldn't ever identify with, the one that always felt like a lie... finally feels right.

thank you for the new journal idea
lilyk:
i am not at all shocked 
I made some pajama pants all by myself.
Well, JoAnne's fabrics helped in supplying the fabric itself. And Jeremy bought me the sewing machine two Christmases ago.

Sorry? Did I miss something? Who is she???

It is from an old Monty Python bit; in a couple of episodes, someone would use the term "hen-teaser," and they'd cut to a clip of Eric Idle (as an Italian banker) asking that phrase- "What is a hen-teaser?"
(I know every geek in the world has worshipped Python for the last 20 years; I'd just like to point out I started watching them in London in the '70s and I have two paperback MP books to prove it.)
I can't change the world, but I can change the channel.

I would say I got equally stuffed. I dunno about "biggest shopping day of the year," but Thursday was the biggest eating day, for realll.
goatsgotohell:
I obviously can too...
I often feel like a tabloid and write the story first and figure out the details later.

Next visit you should come out and play wif us!!!! I made a little pact with an old friend who lives in Hollywood that we would see eachother every 8 weeks-ish. So, I'll be back in a month or 2. You can tell me all about shooting then.
