10% of Your LJ Experience

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, anniesj!! I love you! Except you SUCK for having your birthday on a Sunday, in which I was all bleary and not thinking about LJ. Grr. So ok, fine, fine, WHATEVER, ANNIE, TAKE THE WHOLE WEEK FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY INSTEAD. Hrmfs.

Also yesterday was the two year anniversary of my meeting arundhathi which I have to say was one of the most destined meetings EVER. I luff you, Arrie. TIMES FIFTY GAZILLION MARSHMALLOWS!

I have more evidence on my brainwashing theory! I lay down for a nap Saturday afternoon/evening and *cough* sorta slept through EVERYTHING. I'd even set my alarm cause I'd had plans but apparently turned it off in my sleep. But it was so warm and snuggly and swmkit was being very good and sleep was gorgeous. And then I woke up at like 3 am and was all "ummmmmm". *cough* *facepalm*. And then got up properly at around 5 am, having had SO MUCH SLEEP.

However, I don't normally nap at all and I particularly don't nap for, you know, around ELEVEN HOURS STRAIGHT and thus I know that it was because the whole day was implanted memories and it's easier for them to implant 'oops, I fell asleep and that's it' weekend memories than memories in which I Do Stuff. So there you have it.

I REFUSE to work six days this week. Refuse. And so should all of you. RESIST THE MIND MANIPULATION. Demand our weekends back!!

( Today is all about passing glances with fandom.  )

Today I was VERY SMART and brought cream cheese, bagels and strawberry preserves into work. So when I suddenly go starving - which will happen within the next 30 minutes, I am prepared with breakfasty goodness as soon as I stage an onslaught on the toaster.

AND TONIGHT IS ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT! FINALLY!!! AND KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL!! WEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

wow, in the time that I typed that, the HUNGER set in so I am gonna have to go attack the kitchenette now. Have a fabulous Monday! Remember, ONLY FIVE DAYS THIS WEEK! We're setting that in stone!

*pls see Arrie's LJ for more info

Ok, here's the sitch. It's that time of year again - CARD TIME. Last year, I did a post about it and I think I said everything best then, so this post is actually almost EXACTLY THE SAME.

Um, except for the bits where I talk about ros_fod setting me on fire and about the weather and about watching Lost since it is not Thursday, I cut those out.

BEGIN REPOST:
I am going to swim with the fishies - wait, no, the other thing. The one that doesn't mean death. Join the herd! Yis. And ATTEMPT to send out Christmas cards.

I am going to confess right now - I'm often disorganized on this kind of thing. Frankly, there's a good chance I totally bite. On the other hand, I am going home for Thanksgiving (First time in years!!) and while there I might need to keep myself amused. And I can tell you RIGHT NOW that reading of the pr0n is not an option with which I am comfortable when clasped in the bosom of my family. So perhaps I can sublimate by writing cards!

But I wanted to get that out of the way because IF I do not actually manage to do this 'sending of Christmas cards thing' I am hoping to forestall any hurt feelings. Because I LOVE YOU GUYS! And if I fail it will be me, not you! AND I'm NOT BREAKING UP WITH YOU !! So get back to my LJ right this instant. Ok. So there's the poll. Um, I am lazy and just made it all on one line. I hope it all fits. If you have a wacky address that I would need to know where to break the lines, just use commas?

Ok, give me addresses if you want cards. No, wait. Give me your address if you want the POTENTIAL for cards! It's like an experiment! The card is a cat and you do not know if it is there or not until you open the mailbox! DO EEET!! This goes for ANYBODY that wants a card from me!
END REPOST!

For those who were curious as to what happened last year. I wrote out about 1/2-2/3rds of the cards. I then mailed about 1/2 or so of what I wrote out. I then LOST the other half and found them sometime around, what, Feb or so? Late January? Much later. I went ahead and mailed out some of those too - many of them actually had STAMPS already attached.

But I lost the list of who I had written out cards to and who I did not.

So seriously, I suck at this. Remember, if I fail, it's not you, it's ME. But I'm gonna try this again. Because hey, it's 2005, babies!

TAKE THE POLL...IF YOU DARE!

[Poll #607328]

SUPER BONUS BREAKOUT PPPPPS: If you do not leave your name, I am not responsible for how I address your card. Even if I KNOW your name. I'm looking at you here, Arrie.
