Domestic Geek

Check out this site (link stolen from Laura)! I've had some trashy neighbors before, but they pale compared to this guy's neighbor. Scary!

I totally agree with this guy.

Current mood: listless
I'm feeling soooooo lazy today. I had planned on sleeping in and then attacking the day full-steam. At 6 a.m., some stupid bird decided to sit on the electric pole outside my bedroom window and jabber away. I tried to go back to sleep, but no such luck. Damn it. The only thing I've accomplished so far is loading the dishwasher.

Spring is definitely here. I've got my first insect bite on my right cheek. Dang thing is all swollen and itchy. Yay! I wonder who the culprit was. It hasn't been wet enough for mosquitos. Maybe a biting fly or some small spider.

Wondering what kind of guy I actually live with? Check out his web site. Yesterday he posted some answers to a questionnaire email he got from one of his friends. The favorite physical feature of the opposite sex answer had me laughing so hard I cried. If nothing else, he's good for comic relief.

I'm finally getting a Mac again! I am so excited. Marcus got himself a G4 on eBay from a guy that actually works at Apple in Cupertino, CA. It should arrive today or tomorrow. So, I'm getting Marcus' old iMac. Sweet! I wanted to get myself a powerbook back when I was shopping for a laptop, but I decided on a Sony Vaio since I was going to school and figured I needed a Windows machine. I hate Windows with a passion. I've loved the Mac platform since I was in college. My roommate had an Apple IIe that he used to let me type my papers on. A guy was on TechTv the other day that had an OSX tatoo on his forearm. I was thinking that if I ever did get a tatoo, I wouldn't mind having an Apple logo.

OK, Marcus and I made the best meal for dinner. I really like it when we can get together to cook. We grilled steaks, I made potato skins, Marcus grilled some corn. There is strawberry shortcake waiting for later. YUM! I wish we could spend more time together like that more often. *sigh*

I've been studying the movable type template all evening trying to figure out what is needed in my template. I'm hoping I can get that up tomorrow. That would be really cool. I do need to work in the yard, though. It was a gorgeous day today. It got into the mid-80's, according to the temperature reading on the bank sign. Wow. I just wish I hadn't had to work today. That always screws up my day.

I watched some videos on the VH1 Classic station today. I love having a satellite dish.

Well, I'm going to go have some shortcake and get back to my template.

One of these days I'm actually going to get this done on Saturday:

EIGHT FROM THE EIGHTIES

1) Do you find yourself making love out of nothing at all?
In college (84-90), I would've said most definitely. I used to "fall in love" at the drop of a hat it seemed. Lately, no. I'm with the love of my life and I honestly don't have the time or energy for crushes, etc.

2) All I need is a miracle, all I need is...
A winning lottery ticket. Wait, didn't I answer the same way to a different question last week? HA!

3) If you had to live your life in one day, how would you speed your time away?
I'd spend the time with Marcus.

4) Do you get so emotional, baby?
Boy, do I! I cry at everything: movies, commercials, books, you name it. I get angry really easily (I'm working on that). I dont' have any patience for stupidity and it's usually somebody's stupidity that sets me off. Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

5) Do you have too much time on your hands?
I wish!

6) Sex is natural, sex is fun, sex is best when it's...
with the one you love more than anything.

7) Is there something I should know?
No, if I wanted you to know, I would've told you.

8) Do you come from a land down under? Have you ever been there?
No on both counts. I'd really love to visit there someday, though. Australian accents make me melt.
