That workout class
kicked my ass.
Old fashioned calisthenics.
It was called something that didn’t sound like that.
Remind me never to do that again.
My Valient Cough has returned.

Help my friend win a trip to the Rose Bowl
I hate sports but this dude I know is in a contest to to go the Rose Bowl. I told him I’d post this but I also warned him that tumblrs attention span is about 45 seconds long.
Vote for him if you’ve read this far.
Hi All,
I am in a contest sponsored by Nationwide Insurance to win a trip to the Grand Daddy of them All the Rose Bowl. I need you all to help me win the contest by voting...
Leftover Turkey's only good for 4 days
From the Flylady’s mailing list:
Dear Friends,
MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!!
Today is Monday, November 30 and your Thanksgiving leftovers are officially four (4) days old. According to the USDA, turkey leftovers are good for four (4) days. If you’re not going to eat them, then freeze them and do it NOW.
On Tuesday (tomorrow) it will be time for them to go. Gravy should...
I wish
I could like that you liked my post.

Apparently Dee Snider’s pissed off that the “Heavy Metal Horns” have been commandeered and made a mockery of by the general public.
Truth is that I never did it till the world made a mockery of it. Now I do it all the time. It’s my own mockery of the mockery that has been made of it.
Cause it was a devil worshiping thing before it was THE INTERNATIONAL METAL SIGN. And...

Review of Ross The Boss gig in Brooklyn a coupla mos ago. The one I didn’t make cause I sat in the airport for hours instead.
Loved having a whole weekend off
with absolutely no plans at all.
It could have been more awesome if I’d had Friday off too.

I could use one more day
Guess I had even more stuff I was putting off than I realized that needed to be done, but the house is looking fab, the cat is groomed, my bed is fluffy, my carpet is vacuumed, my bills are paid and the recycling’s being recycled, the garbage is outside, and the Salvation Army has my old crap I don’t want anymore.
A productive Holiday weekend all-in-all and I even had some time for...

I slept so good last night
with new pillows and a blanket.
I'd hoped it'd all match up.
Eating the last of the pie but I’ve got quite a few episodes of LOST left and the house isn’t totally clean. Just mostly.

Cleaning marathon still not over
Just in case you thought it was.
House is starting to look nice again but there’s plenty more needs doing.

New Bedding
Past the halfway mark in my housecleaning marathon, I noticed the comforter I was washing was from 1986. Really. It was also about 1/4” the thickness it used to be and looks like it’s seen better days.
Looked around for Post-Thanksgiving bedding sales but ended up buying one that was nice instead. It looks amazingly like the one from 1986.
twitter never really deletes things
Absent-mindedly typed “Valient Thorr” into the box to search on twitter for what there was to find only instead I realized after I’d hit the button that I’d typed it in the status box and sent “Valient Thorr” as my status to my facebook and my myspace.
I went in and deleted all the stray ones but the one on twitter’s never quite totally gone depending on...
V
Just finished watching V finally. I think it’s good SciFi and true to the original in spirit while it tells us a tale that’ll be more interesting for us in this decade. Not sure exactly what political commentary it intends to make or why but if you forget all about any of that it’s good TV.
What I learned about the end of the world from the...

Shit’s gonna explode. That’s about it.
Sometime last night it turned winter.
I pulled out the electric blanket last night, the wooly hat and gloves this morning. It snowed on my way to work today. Just enough to get stuff white and then melt. Not looking forward to more of this.
Getting work done at work
Cause its quiet.
Thanksgiving progress update
1:30AM: Going to a bar was a pretty good idea since I was sick to death of cleaning stuff, but it does mean that there’s more cleaning in store for me this weekend. Now I’ve got to get in bed and sleep a minute before work tomorrow. Which is either going to be awesome cause so many people will be out or really stupid and pointless because so many people will be out. I’ll let you...
Thanksgiving progress update
8PM: Spent the last hour folding and putting away laundry loads 3 and 4, taking a bath, and finishing my 7th episode of LOST while I refrained from eating any more food in preparation for drinking and eating later. Sayid is loose in the jungle now.

So… Salvo’s homophobic and anti-choice and really creepy.
No more money in your little red buckets. I’ll be supporting other charities, thank you.
Say What?
Well look like this Christmas I’ll be saving my pennies for my Local Woman’s Clinic.

Theyre not against homosexuality. They just want homosexuals to be celibate.

6pm: Third load of laundry is dry but I had to stop halfway through folding it because I was too full to do any more work. Jack, Kate, and Hurley are at Dharma Initiation now.
