/ Roomba!

cheesecake
...and when the queen said 'let them eat cheesecake,' they exploded her...

Today was supposed to be the day when I got back on track; do my taxes, write the Great American Craig’s List Ad, get back into my normal running routine, switch to lower alcohol content and finally give myself up to organized religion. But there is ice on the deck and because of a rogue popcorn kernel, I have instead given up my ambitions of setting my financial affairs in order to find something pointy and metal to jam into my gums. Rubber coated paper clips are the bane of my existence, Jesus, no!

This is why winter is such a poor choice for celebrating the new year. The cold breaks hips and resolutions alike. And hearts, eegads.

Thursday, I was up til 4am finishing a proposal and it was exhilarating and exhausting in a way that helped me momentarily forget that there is no god and I have spent my brief chance at life making lots of money for other people. Poo!

What’s sad is that I keep telling myself that I could have done so much more. And really, there are only two, maybe three people I can blame for this: me, myself and the internet. I am too easily fooled when the Internet says I am pretty. My psyche is pervious to influence. And still, I cannot believe I am kicking myself for not working harder.

I am totally being cock blocked and bitch slapped by the inaptly named ‘American dream’ which comes with almost no sleep and was mostly made in China.

Taxes bad.
Internet good.
Digging popcorn kernel out of gums with paper clip bad.

(You're pretty).

Given a choice, I take popcorn everytime. Which explains why I carry dental floss in my purse.

leezer, you can't fool me! i mean, SAY IT AGAIN

heather, amazing and terrible. forgiving and vengeful. popcorn is like the new testament and old testament wrapped into one and jammed into a hotel room dresser drawer.

e, you and i should compare floss this week. it will be just like how war veterans show each other their bullet wounds, only much less cool and much better for your teeth.
