Odin's Day

Happy birthday to dicotomygrrl, docwebster, and mystic9429!

Hello to new readers habiliments and xsyntrik!

Medical
Bumped up on the Topamax today, and feeling very out of it. Exacerbated, I'm sure, by the fact that I just spent the last full hour running all around the building helping a professor set up for a big seminarthingie he's holding today. Which I actually don't mind, aside from the medical stuff, as this is one of the professors who really appreciates the above-and-beyond stuff, which parts of this are. Is? I've lost track of my subject/verb agreement. You get the drift. He's a good guy.

Was so tired last night that after the docorion conversation...

Me, stumbling into the bedroom about an hour after the conversation ended: "Fell asleep on the *mumble*."
Adam, half-asleep: "Did you say you fell asleep on the couch or the cat?"
Me: "I dunno what I said. But both would be right."

Most patient. Cats. Evar.

Girl Scouts
Troop Leader wandered by last night - without calling first, of course, and at an unacceptably-late time - to pick up her table. We gave her troop money and extra cookies, too. Not our money, as we're still sorting that. I didn't deal with her, as I was on the phone with docorion.

Holes in her Ears!
Miss Kid has gotten her ears pierced! She's still a little bit in shock. So am I. Next column for TwoHeadedCat: Preadolescent rites of passage.

Girls, Girls, Girls
I write about pretty bi girls kissing and being all giggly, and pretty bi girls come out and get all giggly in the comments. I gotta do this more often.

docorion thinks that we should write a personal ad for a girl for me. The interview process ought to be rigorous, we agreed. Quite rigorous.

That's neither here nor there. *clears throat*

Shayara
Um, according to all signs, today is the day that Shooting Star Comics #6, with the Shayara story, will actually be in stores, and my heart just went all floopy just writing that. So go look for it, okay? And let me know when you get it. It is like not *real* for me until someone has it in their hot little hands...

I wish I could have had my ears pierced when I was Elayna's age. My father was adamently against it, something about "if god wanted you to have holes in your ears he would have put them there." I finally got my first piercings at 19. Then my 2nd at 21.

if god wanted you to have holes in your ears he would have put them there.

...

My ears have holes in them, even not including the piercings.

Is your dad hallucinating?

[quillismightier.livejournal.com]

I suppose I should have prefaced that with: my dad is crazy and sometimes doesn't make sense.

[wispfox.livejournal.com]

Aaah. So your dad was being not entirely serious?

[quillismightier.livejournal.com]

No, he was serious, just not consciously thinking before speaking. Dad is great for one liners to throw back at him. Like the time I told him a certain pair of shoes hurt his bunions then to not wear them, he responded with, "I haven't worn shoes in years."

I love my dad, but he's a dork.

*laugh* Oh. See, I'm used to people who say things like that to be intentionally silly, with an entirely straight face. :)

[quillismightier.livejournal.com]

My husband does that. I just throw pillows at him.

[wispfox.livejournal.com]

Mmm. Pillow fight.

Because _that's_ a deterrent. ;)

*laugh* Well, _DUH_! ;)

[shadesong.livejournal.com]

It's just fun.

I like pretty bi girls.

I mean, who doesn't, really? But seriously. Pretty bi girls, they warm the cockles of my heart.

[wispfox.livejournal.com]

warm the cockles of my heart

Oh, is _that_ what they call that these days? ;)

*giggle*

[stripedsocks.livejournal.com]

Gah! I missed giggly pretty bi girls? This will teach me to not read comments.

How on earth did you get your daughter to get her ears peirced? DId she want to? My 12 year old will not have anything to do with it because she's a wus.

[shadesong.livejournal.com]

She's been asking for them for a while now. She got nervous when she actually got up on the chair, and was in shock for a bit afterward - "It still stings!" "Dude, you just got metal spikes poked through your ears, we told you it would sting for a while!" - but she was over the shock within the hour.

And hello to you as well. In case you wondered (I always do), I came here via the lovely roomette, whose friend list I browse when I begin to want new voices to read. She always has such fabulous taste.

I do tend to wonder...

roommette is ultra-nifty. :)
