I’m surprised that ‘gullible’ is not in any dictionaries. The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe. Spiff likes beef. I’m balling at work right now. That stereotypical “knock … knock … knock-knock-knock … KNOCK KNOCK” sound you make on a door is called “shave and a haircut … two bits.” ---

Whenever I’m at a restauraunt that gives free refills on pop, they always make me drink way too much pop. (OK, maybe they don’t really _make_ me…) I just ate some of those boneless BBQ wings from KFC. Yummy. (But I’m bloated from all the pop.) I love the smell of steak on the grill. (At home, I never have a problem with my pop consumption). ---

It’s very sunny. Perhaps I should go for a walk, and abandon the computer. But it might be lonely. I’m wearing blue/purple/green iridescent nail polish, and trying to decide if I like it. It might be better for evening or club wear. I want Ethiopian food for dinner. Now that I think of it, I’m really, really hungry. Indian food would be good, too. I wonder if Mr. Lissar would be angry if I took off and went out to dinner. Maybe I shouldn’t- we’ve been eating out a lot recently. Hmm. ---

Long distance relationships suck. I don’t necessarily want any cuddling or understanding or sweet stuff, I just want sex right now. I hope I got all of Emmy’s throw up out of the bed this morning. Ava ---

I’m mad at the college 'cuz I gotta pay a boatload of money for classes because I live out of district. even though I. But they tell me it doesn’t matter that own 3 houses and a business in district and I pay a ton of property taxes that goes to them, if I don’t SLEEP in district than I am not in district. I’m gonna have to start sleeping around in order to get an education! I think I have a sty coming up on my eye. Man I hate that. All in all a pretty stinky day. ---

I have _Bunch Ass_ right now. It happens when the excess tail of your shirt bunches up in back against some slacks that are probably too tight. It looks like I have a rabbit tail and feels very strange when I walk. No way I’m gonna fix it. ---

Thanks to **dwc1970** I also now have a System of the Down song running through my head. 😛 Additional thanks to **avabeth** for making me _really_ miss my sweetie, who is about 3000 miles away until July. 😉 My coffee mug is almost empty and it hasn’t nearly slaked my thirst for coffee today. I think I should get free stock in Starbucks for the amount of business they get from me. ---

I had a dentist appointment cancelled yesterday. Work is really boring. I have a midterm tommorow. Work is really boring. I haven’t been to the gym in two weeks. Work is really boring. My rats are running low on food and I forgot to give them more. I hope they don’t starve. Work is really boring. It’s really, really nice outside. Work is really, really boring. Only 2.5 hours left… ---

[Ellen Degeneres] I like grapes. I left some money in my pants. If its a $1 I don’t care but if its a $20 I want to get that out of there. Gotta remember that…money in the pants, money in the pants, money in the pants… [Ellen Degeneres] ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by TeleTronOne \* > \*\*Confucious also say: Man who go to sleep with itchy butt, wake up with stinky finger. \*\* Man who go sideways through turnstile _always_ going to Bangkok. I’m blasting _Cherish_ by Madonna. I should be finishing this essay that’s due in 13 hours. I can’t stop thinking about the Elijah Wood movie I’m going to rent this weekend…hrm, which one… I can’t stop thinking about Elijah Wood. I’m twitching at the sight of some of the grammar mistakes on these boards. I enjoy some of these smilies a great deal, but noticing they are not used much, I shall refrain. As much of a grammar buff as I am, I enjoy the words “thusly” and “muchly” far too much. Ly. I am a human dictionary. I like pie. ---

The swelling from my root canal Monday night is pretty much gone. I wonder if the bf will want to eat out Friday, or should I cook? If so, what? I wonder if he’d like that curry-apple-chicken thing. The sound of the rain outside is very soothing. No tap Saturday, but I do have to take the cat to the vet. Should I take “gadzooks” off the screen-saver at work? ---

I’m thinking that my alleged coworker spends so much time with his feet up on the desk that I’ve seen more of his shoe soles than the floor has. The cold air from the duct above me makes my neck and elbow ache. Plus I’m pre-crampy. I wouldn’t want to work with me this weekend. But my cats still like me. ---

I am extremely confused. In Spanish speaking countries, that knocky thing is an extreme insult. If you read between the lines way too much, as I am apt to do, it begins to seem that (Little Shop of Horrors spoiler) Audrey II not only killed Audrey, but first raped her. I wonder if anyone will ever read my little “note” I wrote in Biology today. I certainly do hope so. I really hate the “a” thread. Note to self: Try to use “caesura” in a sentence sometime soon. ---

Spent 10 hours on a bus yesterday. At my antie’s farm now. The water is gross. It feels slippery… I stepped in cow shit. Many Many times. They don’t have northern lights(aurora borealis) in Alberta. Bummer. I suddenly have a craving for steak… I’m being bombarded by the “enemy within” and theres not a feminine hygiene product in a 3 mile radius… I like kittens. MSN IM is being a tit. It should die. I fell down and I have a cut on my hand and I’m wearing a cool clear bandaid on it. ---

The new liquid band-aids are weird. My yard is mown, but need to be trimmed. I need to pee. I feel bloated, too, but have had neither a period or boneless wings lately. I really like breathing through my nose. FB ---
