orange poppyseed muffin

i hate earthlink. they are, collectively, bastards. it will be another 7-10 business days until we get dsl. turns out they changed their relocation policy july 1. didn't see fit to mention that. we could have had dsl weeks ago, turns out. bastards. um... no. we didn't receive any fax.

wishing i could be in denver to deliver some hugs. and support. and direct thug-like, threatening glares toward anyone who dares challenge starbuckle's happiness.

so. spent some quality time with myself yesterday. decided i can be truly annoying. need to get the fuck over my mopey assed self. we're not going to long island this weekend. i couldn't handle the effort and money the process of getting there requires. and i didn't want to go v. much anyway. desperately want to see siena.. but don't feel like traveling. much. now i've promised to drive to western mass on wednesday to see her instead. which is much preferred anyway. i haven't been to noho in too long. clearly, neither has siena.

right, so whoever decided i was allowed to read fic with 45 chapters? this is a bad idea. i am too obsessive. it has taken me over. but it is the best harry/draco i have yet to come across. i think i owe thanks to gemmi_1 for that rec. and for the nsync tutorial she gave me the other night. yup, i can almost name them all on sight now. who says i'm not accomplishing things? *g*

blood for blood without remorse

seems awful quiet in lj-land today. perhaps i am just more attentive than usual. ok. actually, i'm bored. but i did something good today! i did me some yoga! and boy, did it feel good. streeeeeeeetch.

ok. i know what i'm going to do. ::takes deep breath:: i'm going to fill out an application for this on-line private school job placement thingy. yes. attempt to take a step forward. that's the plan.

shoosh! noisy dogs

ok, so i have been more comfortable at other moments in my life. but something just seems to make sense right now about using the lap top while lying in bed. and rach looks so cute when she's sleeping. i don't want to go in the other room.

we saw lovely and amazing tonight. it was really good. better than i had anticipated. but i was just being cranky bc i wanted to see lotr and gf didn't. but i will see it this weekend sometime... a last hurrah before it's out on dvd.

talked with scottxwl on aim for many many hours today. fun. we have much movie-watching to do. whee.

my only real issue with lovely and amazing is the way it goes along with so many other movies in portraying fat people as food-obsessed. some are, i'm sure, but so are plenty of non-fat people. it just... oversimplifies things. exagerates the symptom... thus making the problem too easy to understand. i've seen friends and family deal with just about every eating disorder there is. it's just not that clear. not all fat people are compulsive eaters. and vice versa.
