Yay! Lunch! It was my distinct privilege today to go to lunch with fiarjennet on her birthday. At the Hobbit Cafe, which was a somewhat appropriate choice, que no? We had a nice lunch, and then we made the mistake of going to the bookstore, which is bad news, so money disappeared there. I bought a book that I'm vaguely ashamed to own, so I won't mention it here. It is total cheese. No, like so bad that I almost couldn't buy it with a straight face. We had fun, though, and hopefully we'll get together again soon and do something else Interesting. Oh, and just as an aside, on my way home, I had to pick up a cable for my iPod. While I was trying to accomplish that simple task, Elladan forced me to look at items of clothing that cost $3,500 and in that range. But he wasn't interested in the Versace store. He said the stuff in there is way more Rumil's style this season, larian. Current Mood: cheerfulCurrent Music: Thunderheist - Bubblegum | | Saturday, May 10th, 2008 | | 10:20 pm |
Happy happy cell phone. O Virgin Mobile, how I love thee. Service that works everywhere it's supposed to. Instant messenger, both flavours, on my phone! All sorts of internet dinking for very cheap! International dialing for ridiculously low rates! Lovely little QWERTY keyboard. No dumbasses from Alltel with whom one is forced to deal. Elf screensavers and wallpapers tailor made. Ludicrous ringtones and ringback tones. Ah, Virgin Mobile. You are making me a very happy bee. | | Tuesday, May 6th, 2008 | | 11:05 am |
I admit it. Weather Pixie and Yahoo both confirm it. Right now it is 76 degrees Fahrenheit outside or about 24C. It is going to be a high of 80F or around 27C. Now. I have to say, that people (read elvses) have accused me of being a weirdo for being cold in the wintertime and turning the heat up above 50 degrees. Well, fie on them. D is one of those people, too, actually. But, seriously, this is ridiculous. Right now, I am a bit chilly. My fingers and toes are cold, and my nose. And no, I don't have the AC on. So I went and unpacked Elladan's pod and here I sit, wrapped up in a giant fleece pod in 80 degree weather. Mmm. Warm. Now I will continue watching The Colour of Magic. Am NOT a lizard. | | Tuesday, March 11th, 2008 | | 7:22 pm |
Oh, hell. Save me from a bunch of crap I don't need but feel too guilty to throw away! Save me from stuff I don't need but to which I seem to have formed an unnatural emotional attachment! Save me from STUFF! I think that in the next day or two I will make and post a list of all the majorly weird crap I've found that is going away without any agonising. D's weird crap is especially fun to mock. MY things are not weird at all, as most of you know. I have impeccable taste.

Passtimes of the Unemployed! Ah, the joys of midnight baking. I felt like having brownies. So I made them. Sometime after midnight. Because...I DON'T HAVE TO GO TO WORK IN THE MORNING! YAY! I may not be saying yay when I can't find a job later because of my general suckiness, but right now, it's awesome to be able to make brownies in the middle of the night. This process was also helped along by the fact that I was a complete slacker and slept almost the entire weekend. I think this was my body's way of slightly making up for the fact that I've hardly slept at all for the past year, and my job for the past several years has had me on call 24 hours a day, so not much good sleep there, either. I am now waiting for the brownies to be cool enough to cut. Mmm. Middle of the night eating and watching movies. Tomorrow I have to do real chores and stuff, though. Possibly.

Bee's Wowingly Awesome Postcard Project! Fun For All! So, as everyone knows, I'm moving. In the process, I found a stack of postcards, the blank, white sort with the postage already affixed. Here's what I'm proposing: I will make you your very own Bee Original. This offer includes on one side a short scene, in-character greeting, or some other thing I make up from one of the fandoms you think I know about. Those would mostly include LotR, HP, Good Omens, Discworld, Star Trek, SW, and you know, if there's another you think I might know about from talking to me over the years, give me a try, I'll probably try to do it for you. I can't promise pairings or specifics, but I'll try to come up with something. On the other side, I will attempt to make something pretty. Or at least decorative. Then I will send the end product to you. Eventually, I will get to everyone. This will give me something to do with the next little while without interwebz. And get rid of my postcards. And art supplies. And other random fanciness that I might stick to your postcard. If you are interested in this, go ahead and leave me a comment (comments will be screened) with your name, address, and what you might be interested in having on your card. I aim to please! This is all very experimental, so if you want to try this out in your own LJ, feel free to steal. I've done similar things as one time dealies in exchanges before, and I think it might be fun.

SNAKES! Well... This morning there were snakes in my socks when I went to put them on. A yellow one and a cobra. Thanks a lot. You know who you are. Current Mood: aggravatedCurrent Music: AFI - Love Like Winter | | Sunday, November 11th, 2007 | | 8:55 pm |
Well, that was fun. I'm home. And now that I've cried myself silly, I'm going to eat a whole tub of frosting.
Thank you very much.
Don't hold back your applause. Current Mood: numbCurrent Music: AFI - The Killing Lights | | Wednesday, August 29th, 2007 | | 11:47 pm |
Gone Sithing. Back soon. Current Mood: bouncy | | 8:52 am |
AHAHAHAHAHA! I have recently been informed by my body that I am definitely allergic to amoxicillin. I look like I have measles today. HA! The dentist says to go ahead and stop taking it. And to take a benedryl. And I should be fine after a few hours. *eyeroll* What did I tell you about travelling? Current Mood: amused | | Thursday, August 23rd, 2007 | | 9:15 am |
Disaster time! Woo! The season for fun and travel is here! You can tell this is so. How, you ask, can you tell this is so? You can tell by the fact that spacebee's teeth are disintigrating yet again. Yes, the season is here for pain and torture time.It always happens immediately before a long journey. It's almost guaranteed to happen the very day before getting on a plane or before a holiday when the dentist is closed or when Bee and D are in the mountains or the desert, backpacking through the wilderness with no hope of reaching civilisation. Hurray! Huzzah! A sharp pain in my jaw and a low-grade fever made for a pleasant night. I left a message for my dentist in the middle of the night (although the dear allows patients to call him at home if it's a true emergency). Bright and early Debbie, his faithful assistant, called to work me into the schedule. So I'll be having dental work right before leaving for my mom's today so as to catch my plane tomorrow to go to my brother's wedding this weekend. It might be a crack that's been brewing in one of my remaining wisdom teeth, he says. Or it might be a tooth near one of my crowns that is damaged from grinding my teet as a child. Yay! On another cheery note, you can also tell it's time to go because my car is not happy. My brakes have decided to make a thunky noise. Tom, my mechanic, has a few ideas about that, and will try to fix it before I go. I do complain about my town a bit sometimes, but there are some excellent folks here, too, I admit. Where else could I get my tooth and my car sorted by the time I want to leave by mid-afternoon today? Current Mood: optimistic | | Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007 | | 8:40 am |
Stars There is virtually no light polution at my house. When the princess dog and I go for our final walk at night, the view of the stars is superior. Magnificent. The Milky Way is startling. Last night I saw not one but two falling stars. Yes, I wished. Very hard. For things that would be difficult to provide. And before anyone says anything about being realistic and not asking for things from falling stars, yes I did take Astronomy in college. Shush. Alright. Off to Fingonise my hair now.

FINGON LOVE! LOVE, I SAY! LOVE! Alright, so. A very large and heavy parcel arrived for me today. That is because Fingon's festival robe has arrived. finarfiniel is a genius. It is wonderful. Between her and wicked_swann, I am going to have the best costumes in the history of costumes. As most of you might recall, wicked_swann made Elladan's beautiful costume last year, and my Sith robe for this year, which Fingon might wear at the same time as his festival robe some of the time as Darth Fingon. Heh. Thank goodness for air conditioning. Anyway, the Fingon robe weighs a tonne! And takes up about a cubic foot of space. So it's probably a good thing finarfiniel sent it to me so I can carry it to Dragon*Con in half of my own suitcase instead of half of one of hers. Heh. But my god, it's GORGEOUS. I can't wait to get it all ironed and stuff so I can take a million photos in it. I think I might wear it to work three times a week for the rest of my life. Wear it, wash it, wear it again, wash it...you get the picture. FINGON LOVE! Eeeeeeeee! Current Mood: thankful | | Monday, August 20th, 2007 | | 1:43 am |
DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT! D is gone, of to school again. That is very productive and good. However. What that means for me is that it's back to the fabulous world of insomnia and nightmares and hellish non-good. *sigh* Well, next week's wedding (yay!) and the following week's Elfing ought to be helpful, as D will be there. Until then...no sleep for the wicked. Or something. Current Mood: worried | | Friday, August 17th, 2007 | | 4:27 pm |
End O' The Week Sumpin'. Well, here we are at the end of the week. I think it's time for a little evaluation of pros and cons. Pros: - I didn't get assaulted by any psychos at all. And I was in fact slightly concerned about this. - I have the money to pay the bills AND go on trips. And make sure my hair is all one colour for everything. - I have not worked 16 hours today. - Some people are awesome. Cons: - D is leaving for four months again tomorrow. - I have a feeling I'm never going to catch up on all my sleep. Ever. - I'm on call this weekend. - My big suitcase is broken. - I'm going to need both suitcases for one of my trips. - Some people are jerks. Having said that, I think I'm ready for a nap.
