Me and my insurance card will conquer the world! Just the two of us!

Had a doctor's appointment today. It went well. Still healthy, so that's good to know. He did mention something about my weight. I mean, I'm not fat by any means, but it seems I'm on the "high normal side of the BMI." Bleh. I know I need to be more active and stuff. I've been trying to watch what I eat and all, but I can probably do a bit better. I need to get more active and all too. We have a small exercise room here at the complex, but we need to look into using it. I guess this also means that I need to drag out my Yoga books again... Maybe I'll actually get around to kissing my lil jelly rolls good-bye.

Was I ever swamped at work today! I had a ton of fee tickets come in and was only able to post about half of them before I had to leave. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow.

After weeks of waiting, I FINALLY got my grubby mitts on a copy of the Furuba Cat Fanbook. *squee* And I squeed at seeing [livejournal.com profile] umadoshi's name!! BTW, interesting middle name you have there, Ysa.

Oh, and I happened to notice a small error, too. In Ayame's profile, a quote that was spoken by Haru ended up under Aya's profile instead. Other than that, an excellent job!

And I got vol 6 of ES and more Bleach (of course).

ch 291 comments )

You should see what I have in my Mac dock. It's silhouettes of Mike and the
'bots! I got them from [livejournal.com profile] lx. They're pretty nifty! I I like seein' 'em down there.

Well, I got towels to finish washing, so I'll be off. Hopefully the floor will support my weight...

The bridal shower we had for one of the girls went very well. People seemed to have liked the Rice Krispies treats I brought. A few of the ladies asked for the recipe. I left the rest there so if anyone wants to snack on them throughout the week, they can.

We finally got our A/C completely fixed. It was leaking again and mom went to raise hell with the front office. Last night the guy finally came. He said that he's been backlogged with the repairing of the stuff that wasn't properly fixed the first time with the old management. Turns out the "line" was clogged and after sucking out the guck, everything works fine. He even fixed the screen door that was knocked off when we moved in our patio furniture for the painters.

Momma duck is still sitting on her eggs. There are about 14 at last count. I dunno how many will actually hatch. We shall continue our vigil!

And I stopped by the bookstore today after work in order to search for Immortal Rain 8 and ES 6, both of which are supposed to be out. Naturally I crapped out of course. So, I'll try to stop by to the other one tomorrow. *crosses fingers*

And I've ben reading more of Inferno. I liked the scene where Saba calls out Jacen at Mara's funeral. She not one to take crap from anyone. I still wonder how the whole thing will eventually end...

And I hope Emi-chan is OK. She's been having family problems and it's beginning to drain on her.

Word of the Day: petulant
Pronunciation: /PECH-uh-lunt/
adj : very impatient or irritable; peevish

Yes, I changed my layout again. Rah rah...

It was weird going into work today, especially since I usually have Wednesdays off. Still, I accomplished quite a bit and I have more waiting for me tomorrow. Luckily I can leave early since I have a doctor's appointment in the afternoon. Plus, we got tickets to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3 at an evening show! Cool!

I should be doing laundry right now, but I kinda feel wiped so I may start on it later on. I need to compile list of the things I need to pack. Here's what I have so far:

I probably forgot something... I usually do. I also have a tendency to over-pack.

I read vol 5 of ES. Some action goin' on inside too! I mean, woudn't you? *points to icon* Souryo-sensei sure can draw the bishies! *rawr*

Word of the Day: defalcate
Pronunciation: /di-FAL-kate/

Man, I made out like a bandit yesterday! I went to BAM to use my gift card and I really lucked out. Not only did I get the third book in the 'Dark Nest' Trilogy (From 'Star Wars'. And I have yet to read the second one), but also the newest 'Mediator' book from Meg Cabot (I have all of her 'Princess Diary' books). I also was able to find book six of 'The Wallflower' as well as 'Saiyuki Reload' 2! I was walking on air! It took all of my gift card (and then some), but it was well worth it. Damn me and my book addiction!

I also saw the new New Year's pic from Furuba today. Beautiful as always. I had wondered how Takaya-sensei was going to portray Kureno and Shigure due to the tension between them, and needless to say, it wasn't sentimental to be sure. I may even have an icon idea brewing.

Speaking of which, I finished reading vol. 15 of Furuba yesterday. We get a good in depth look at Yuki's past and how he suffered all sorts of verbal abuse from Akito. Of course, this was primarily after she snapped and started her journey to the Dark Side. And the play was very cute. Hana-chan makes for a very interesting Cinderella... Now I want to read more. *looks around furtively* I think I may just do that.

I also finished the introductory chapter to 'Eternal Sabbath.' It's very interesting but very different from MARS, to be sure. Still, mucho bishie goodness to be had.


Well, that's all for now! I have to go and look for my resume on my mom's computer (if it's in there). TTYL!

Tomorrow I get to go up in a small four seater plane with someone my mom knows from work and my mom. Now, flying, I have no problem with. However, I'm a bit nervous about this one for two reasons: 1) It's a small plane and 2) it's a small plane. All that keeps flashing through my mind at the moment is all these headlines of small airplane crashes as well as various celebrities that've died on small planes. Buddy Holly, Ricky Nelson, John Denver, JKF. Jr. and so on. So, if my luck hold out, this post will not be the last time you hear from me.

In the meantime, I'm gonna go on an icon binge. I wanna make me a bunch of MARS ones from some images I came across so I'll be doing that today as well as looking up info on the manga-ka's later series, 'Eternal Sabbath.' Ahhh, possibly more bishies to add to my closet...

I'm going to get some gas later on today as well as prowl for the latest issue of Shojo Beat. I want to subcribe sometime, but I never seem to have the extra moolah. And the subscribers got a really neat calendar with the latest issue that shows when all the series will be released. *pouts*

Well, it's laundry day today. I never knew just how much clothes we go through over the course of a week. Man.

OK, since it's the end of the week and this is a short post, some meme's I've been saving:
