Happy Birthday! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Before the clock rolls over to the 25th I wanted to take a minute to say HappyBirthday
to my Mom who turns...whose birthday is today!
For her birthday she has treated herself to a coastal retreat and her lodgings do not have a phone and probably frown on cell phone ... Read more:Happy Birthday
Breakfast or Reason #24956 Why I am Weird 0000-00-00 00:00:00 In keeping with the "ohmygodthefoooood" theme of yesterday I thought I would talk a little bit about breakfast. According to a bunch of people who claim to know a lot about these things, breakfast is the most important meal of the day (personally, I think the most important meal of ... Read more:Breakfast

So Full 0000-00-00 00:00:00 This weekend has been an experiment in "I'm too full but I can't stop eating!"
On Saturday we took Will's friends into Portland for the standard "Hey, we have visitors from out of town!" tour. Hot Lips Pizza, Voodoo Doughnuts and Powells. We started out at Hot Lips where we accidentally ...
Mmmmm. Burgers. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I love Carl's Jr. Will and I rarely went to the one in Roseburg because it was more expensive than Wendy's and harder to get into and out of. When we moved up here to Beaverton, I didn't see any in the immediate walk-able neighborhood so I just figured that ... Read more:Burgers
Things That Disturb and/or Baffle Me 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Those damn Foster Farms chickens who travel all over the country trying to convince people that they deserve to be killed and eaten. I can understand the whole "hey we're cool! Really" aspect, but in the Foster Farms scenario, proving that they are cool means that they are worth ...
Bloglets on Tuesday! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today I had Hot Lips pizza for the third time in seven days. Not too bad, but it is bordering on excessive. I am afraid to eat it too often because a) I might stop thinking that it is awesome and b) it will get expensive, even with the frequent ... Read more:Tuesday
Across the Universe Part Two 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I vividly remember sitting in my living room and watching Scott Bakula sing Imagine on Quantum Leap. Of course, by this time (and at the old age of twelve) I was already a die hard Beatles and John Lennon fan. I don't remember when I heard my first Beatles song ... Read more:Across

FINALLY 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I have wanted to see Across the Universe since the previews started airing a year ago. A year I have been waiting to see it.
Oh my god, I finally got to see it.
Now I am going to go watch it again.
Because... Damn.
Sunday? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 This morning my phone rang (telephone solicitor even though we are on the Do Not Call list) and I remember thinking as I went back to sleep "are they even allowed to call on Sunday
s??" and then I couldn't fall back to sleep because part of my body knew it ...
Little Dances 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I woke up feeling much better this morning and the extra couple hours of sleep I got after Will left for school were also helpful. Currently I am doing my "I need to get to work but I don't want to get to work but I should get to work" ...
No title 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I am in the worst kind of funk. It is the kind of funk where I just really want to sit on the couch and cross my arms and just (as stupid as it sounds) be unhappy for a while. I don't want to watch television. I don't want to ...
It Must Be the Weather 0000-00-00 00:00:00 For most of this week we have had sun and (mostly) livable temperatures. Today we woke up and found overcast skies and while the temperature is still a balmy 42, the gray and the rain...I kind of want to crawl back in bed.
Now, I knew this was going to happen. ...
Gotz Nuthin’ 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today has been a roller coaster (energy-wise). I woke up with plenty of energy and can-do spirit. I did the laundry, I answered some e-mail and then cleaned out my computer (virus check, ad aware scan, etc). Then my energy went completely away. It was sort of like a caffeine/sugar ...
Wednesday Bloglets 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Remember when I said that Bloglets were going to be a regular Monday thing? Yeah.....
My cat has developed an affinity for yarn balls. Of course, because she is Poppy, she doesn't simply chase after them the way a normal cat does. Instead she backs up over them until ... Read more:Wednesday
More on….The Beatles! Sort of. Well. Not Really. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Last night Will came home and asked "Hey, did you know that John Lennon wrote Imagine?" He was very happy about having this knowledge and announced it in such a way that...well, let's just say he was less than pleased when my jaw dropped right off my face and I ... Read more:Beatles
Jane Austen 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I just finished watching the movie The Jane Austen
Book Club.
Now not only do I have to read the novel that the movie is based on but everything put on paper by Jane Austen.
'Cause, you know, it isn't like I'm impressionable or anything.
Dear Fellow Grocery Shoppers 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Specifically the two women and their son (quite possibly he was only the son of one of you, I am not quite sure),
I do not have kids, so far be it for me to tell you how to parent...BUT....
I am all over the whole "kids should explore their surroundings" thing. ... Read more:Grocery
Is it Two Faced? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I always think of fantastic things to write about when I'm lying in bed--far far away from any writing materials. Last night I came up with this one: "you're on a horse so high it makes Babe the Blue Ox look like the runt at a flea circus." I'm kind ...
Brooding 0000-00-00 00:00:00 On the way home from Hot Lips (yee-ummm) tonight Will and I got into one of those "marriage talks." It started because I was joking about how there is no box for us on applications. There is no "not single, but not married"/"in a committed relationship with plans for marriage...someday" ...
No Doubt 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I just wandered over to Will and said "Um, I need to talk to you about my pill. I'm not sure it's working." My reason for saying this isn't because I suspect pregnancy. I don't. Not even a little. So don't get excited. My reason for saying this is because ...
No title 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Last night I went to bed at 9:30. I woke up at 6:30 this morning to "kisses" from Poppy. It was a very nice way to wake up (even though I went back to sleep for an hour and a half).
The rest of the day has been very weird--mood wise. ...
I Love MIX 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I don't know how the library systems operate in your state, but in Oregon they operate on a county-wide system. This means that all of the libraries in any given county are linked together and you can borrow books from any of those libraries. It's a nice system, especially for ...
Again. Impressionable. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 This might shock some of you, but until last week I had never seen even a single episode of My So Called Life. Obviously I knew about it and knew about the fan base and even managed to recognize Jared Leto when 30 Seconds to Mars was on Leno ... Read more:Again
The sun! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today it was sunny! And warm! So Will and I did what any normal people would do on a freak sunny and warm day. We spent the morning and the early afternoon inside and then walked to get burgers and then to the movie theater.
What? Did you not see ...
Monday Bloglets: Back in the Saddle Again 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I emailed a nurse about my fears over the pill not working and she assured me that the pill itself is working just fine and that my "symptoms" were just really severe side effects of the pill that I am on. She recommended switching to a new pill. ... Read more:Monday

Sickness 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Everyone around me is sick. My friend has the stomach flu, Will has been complaining for a couple of days that he "feels like crap," and it felt like everyone on the train and at the library today was wheezing, sneezing, coughing or looking like death.
This does not bode well ... Read more:Sickness
Productivity 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today has been a day of unprecedented productivity. I wrote somewhere around eight thousand words today! It is possibly more than that, but by now my brain is fried and I can no longer count.
To be honest, I am very proud of myself for getting as much done today as ... Read more:Productivity
Stubbornocity 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Can't......fail.......Blog 365!
Hooray! Got it in just under the wire!
Who got a free blender?? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I did! I did!
Just don't tell Will I got it from the recycling center at our apartment complex.
God bless dumpster/recycling diving. I almost picked up a kitchen rug as well, but decided to leave that for someone else.
Close Call 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Is it mean that I am kind of happy Will's friends didn't invade?
There was a magic card pre-release tournament or something geeky like that over at the convention center today and a bunch of the people Will used to play Magic with back in Roseburg were supposed to go. A ... Read more:Close
