More Fairly Random Musings As It Is My Primary Thought Pattern...

I did not have to go into town to pick up the check. (No, this is good news.) It was deposited directly into my account yesterday. I checked and money was indeed deposited! Woo Hoo! This was pay for the uncontested Tuesday through Thursday only but it's a start. When I asked about that controversial Monday pay, I was told next week. I'm worried she thought I was referring to "Photocopying Thursday" but we'll be depressed about that bridge when we come to it...

Also yesterday, we went to the library where my mother wanted to get out a movie and my father wanted to check out a book. I came along for the hell of it. Neither could find their library card so I used mine. This of course means that all late fees will be charged to my record. How nice of me. I considered checking out the movie The Good Girl for myself as I've only seen a scene here and there but, as Friends with Money is still fairly fresh in my mind, I wasn't sure if I could take another serious Jennifer Aniston movie right now...

The movie we did get was Royal Wedding a light-hearted romp of a movie starring Fred Astaire that's about as far from a serious Jennifer Aniston picture as you can get...

During the movie the three of us shared one of those 100 Calorie Packs of Doritos. Do you know why a whole pack is only 100 calories? One chip is small enough to fit up your nose; or at least I'd imagine as trying something like that is dangerous...

Can you believe that Sox game last night? Holy crap! I thought the Tigers would win as, this year, they're gr-r-reat!

The Neglected Blog

With the discovery of the time-waster that is Facebook, I find I no longer need to waste my time here. This is mainly why I haven't done any quizzes or other memes here in a cat's age. (I'm not a dog person...) They're all over there. Also why tell you all about what's not going on in my life when I can better waste time by making fake money off Lindsay Lohan's hi-jinks? Added to that, you can regularly follow the mundaness that is my life on Twitter. I don't want to say I'll never blog again. Frankly, this site and I have chronicled much over the years and I'm not ready to give it up fully. Every so often, something comes up worth sharing. Case in point, Thursday night, there was a retirement celebration for our outgoing OT professor complete with a guest lecturer from Boston, dinner and a vesper service designed by the professor herself. It was good Thai food, though admittedly not my favorite Asian cuisine, and saw many people I knew. My parents c...

The Big E and Other Commentary

Last night, we went to the Big E up in West Springfield. It was apparently Connecticut Day so the parade was all CT all the time. It was the longest parade I have ever watched. It went on like forever. We got a baked potato at the Maine Building and a Spiced Apple Cider Donut at the Vermont building as well as sharp cheese called "The Preacher." I wanted to get "The Green Mountain Boys" which was supposedly XX-sharp but my father wouldn't go for it. We then went to the Sam Adams Beer Garden where I ordered an Octoberfest. Mine was 20 ounces so it looked huge compared to the little cups of chardonnay my parents ordered. We then went over to get the special Big E cream puff. Has anyone heard Clay Aiken's new song? He's covering Badfinger's "Without You" of all things and, I really hate say this, it's pretty good... We're having another Movie Night a week from tomorrow. We've decided today that we're going to watch Akeela...

Rant and Update

First off, I must ask: Where the bloody hell is my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows ? I ordered the thing five days ago! I'm going to start reading spoilers soon! I really want to read this book! Anyway, so I'm still volunteering at the library. We're in the middle of an inventory now. I've also looked in the catalog, one, to see if we had certain new books already and, two, if we did, to see which branch. This week, I've been assigning call numbers to new books. I haven't done that at all since school and that was Library of Congress (LC) classification anyway while here they use Dewey and Cutter numbers. Tomorrow, I won't be going in as the librarian is out today and tomorrow and I did all the work she left for me already.
