Domestic Geek

I was going to work on the old blog here last night, but Marcus and I got into a fight and that took care of any motivation I had to do anything yesterday. I was admonished by Laura yesterday about my lack of comments. I was going to look into remedying that right away. Maybe later as I'm not focusing well right now.

Give me the "Stupid Move of the Day" award. I was having a touch of heartburn from some popcorn I ate late last night. I went to take some antacid and ended up swigging NyQuil instead. Dumb. That'll teach me not to leave the NyQuil and the antacid out on the counter. Now I'm all loopy and groggy. I can't sleep, though. Argh. I really needed to run some errands that require driving. Damn, damn, damn.

Marcus' and my friend Brad informed us last night that Kenny is REALLY DEAD and is being replaced by Butters on South Park. So it seems for now.. We'll see.....

"Helen, Sweetheart of the Internet" is becoming one of my favorite cartoons. That's one good thing about going to CollegeAmerica. I actually understand the geek humor creeping into the comics. Foxtrot has a lot of it that I just used to ignore because I didn't get it.

Current mood: exhausted
Obviously, I didn't get up early. Damn. Last night about 11 p.m., Marcus woke me up ranting about cleaning up Skippy puke. Had the poor dog scared to death. No wonder he was trying to hide it. So, here I was cleaning up puke and lecturing Marcus about making the dog feel bad for something beyond his control. Marcus doesn't get sick much and doesn't understand what it's like to throw up, etc. Seems like we had this same conversation when Ursa had diarrhea not too long ago.

So, here I am. I overslept and am now procrastinating about going to work. I also needed to go to WalMart and had planned on being there when they opened at 7:30. Oh, well.

Current mood: lonely
It's Friday night and I'm all alone. *Sob* Ha, just kidding about the crying part. Anyway, Marcus stayed late at work cataloging software and then he's going to CompUsa with our friend Dave. I guess Dave got some unpleasant news in an email once and he took it out on his poor monitor and now it doesn't work anymore. They always say to never shoot the messenger.

I didn't win any of the computers they were giving away on TechTv. Damn it. I never win anything.

Marcus wants to go see "Ice Age" tomorrow. That could be cool.

Skippy is so afraid of getting in trouble for puking that he's trying to hide it. I just found some puke in the corner of the bedroom. It's a pain to clean up when it up against the baseboard. I wish he'd learn to use the toilet like everyone else. Ha! Seriously, I wish he'd puke on the tile out in the open instead of in some corner on the carpet. Poor little guy. See, I don't need human kids, I have furry ones.

Ok, well, I'm going to watch "The Tribe" episode that I taped and then I'm off to bed. I really want to get in early to work tomorrow. I've got a lot of stuff to do around the house after Marcus and I go the the movies. I'm going to have to steam the carpets since now there are little tiny "clean" patches where I cleaned up the puppy puke. Oh, well, it needed to be done anyway.
