Wow!

I thought it couldn't get any better than giant penguiuns, but boy howdy, giant wombats come pretty frikkin frackin close! What I'm waiting for is Giant Pandas.

"Now Miss Lis, we already *have* giant Pandas", you may be thinking, but no, what I mean is GIANT Pandas, great big Godzilla Stomping Over Tokyo Giant Fuck Off Pandas...it would be awesome...I can see the movies now: Pandador Destroys LA, Pandador vs Gamera, Pandador goes Bezerk at the Teddy Bears Picnic...

I realise this is funny to only me. That's why it's my blog and not yours.

I have had too much caffeine today and nothing even resembling enough sleep.

Note to self...

1am is no time to be freaking out about shit you sure as fuck can't do a damn thing about right now.

fuking fuckity fuck.

squeee!!!


A scant 27 days until I can start my House Season 3 marathon...although I suppose that depends entirely on netflix..you're welcome to join me so long as you understand that there's no talking allowed (unless you're yelling "shut up you insufferable cow" at Cameron (because seriously, who doesn't want to give her a good pistol whipping? ) and Hugh Laurie is MY boyfriend. MINE. I called dibs first.

You will all be relieved to know...

That my backside is feeling much better.

Rode to and from work last night, went smoothly aside from near dooring by crapweasel on Lincoln Ave.

Feeling that goal of being down 15 lbs by summers end v. attainable. Have already lost 10 since hideous moment of truth on Miss Julie's hateful scale...so being 25lbs down will nearly put me back where I was 3 years ago. All I can say is that I'm glad I'm so freakishly tall or I would be such a big fat cow right now. Y'all have no idea.

Michael Vick - get rid of him.

<soapbox>

I've been following this story for about a week now and I'm sickened by the fact that Michael Vick hasn't yet been suspended. You can give me "innocent until proven guilty" all you want, In my estimation the evidence and eyewitness testimony is pretty damning, and if his innocence is proven (bought), fine, but in the meantime, let's just suspend him, shall we? It seems to me it would serve the NFL well to at least PRETEND to care about this, above and beyond any financial gains he can bring to the NFL, rather than waffling around offering the public platitudes such as "We are disappointed that one of our players -- and therefore the Falcons -- is being presented to the public in a negative way, and we apologize to our fans and the community for that."...I know nothing about football, as I understand it, he's quite a valuable comodityin the field, what I DO know is that football is nothing but a fucking GAME, granted it's a game that fuels a billion dollar industry, but I guarantee that if the bodies of 15 cheerleaders had been found in Michael Vick's garage, they would be singing a different tune right now. Why is it somehow excusable for him to torture and eventually murder dogs? I can't help but wonder how he would feel if he were injured and they decided to drown him, or electrocute him, or shoot him or beat him to death...I bet he wouldn't think that's fair at all.

I wish I could speak more eloquently on this subject but this is one of those issues that inspires complete raging hysteria in me. I can't fathom how anyone could involve themselves in something so entirely barbaric and pointless and cruel..

If you also believe Michael Vick should be suspended, you can send an email to Commissioner Goodell demanding the immediate suspension of Michael Vick

My ass hurts and my thighs are killing me..

No it hasn't been *that* kind of weekend. Through the miracle of craigslist I found that which I have decided to name Floyd. Blog, meet Floyd:

Yesterday we did a cumulative 10 miles together between the ride home and then a nice ride up and down Ravenswood and then a trip to the grocery store...the weather this weekend was outstanding and I took the day off from the Mart gig since I already had the night off because of the Travis gig...so 2 whole days off, lots of exercise, beautiful weather, and a very hurty tuchus. How was *your* weekend?

My god the cuteness!

I have to confess, I'm a complete tart for a mini car...

Bitter, party of one...

Or: "how I upgraded to a double wide in the trailer park of hell"

Sending emails that contain phrases such as this:

"...with all you have on your plate and then this crushing heat? I give you kudos for not actually killing people and using their skin to make a nice shady tent..."

And this:

"I detest dating. I wish we could just pick out one we wanted like at at the animal shelter. Then if we don't like him, or he's just difficult and shits on the carpet all the time,  we can take him back where he will be fixed and more than likely euthanized because nobody wants a problem man."

Additionally, sloth is one of the big ones, and I was slothing like a motherfucker all day yesterday. Oh yes I had plenty to do...unfortunately, every time I moved for more than 30 seconds I was immediately drowned in sweat and retreated to the couch in the direct airstream of the fan.

Sloth has also inhibited the installation of the AC. I also need someone of the strapping male variety to help me since much as I'd like to be the big tough girl who can do it herself, it's heavy, my back has been fucky for a week already, and chances are greater than not that if I attempt to do this alone I will drop it out the window and kill someone, and worse yet, I will break my air conditioner.
