I remember when I was growing up, I would sit and stare in wide-eyed wonder at the horror movies.

A conversation with my son who's playing video games while I'm at the computer.
This is the good one btw. The one who never gets in trouble at school, everybody loves him, has had a girlfriend since Kindergarten, etc...

Also told my mom today that I was considering going to Eyecon in September. Still haven't decided yet but I'm leaning strongly in that direction.

I just bought ( this poster ) yesterday.


Been busy this morning.
Straightened up my room.
Cleaned out the dog's pen.
Made lunch.
Washed the car.
Read smut.

You know, the usual Saturday morning chores. *smirk*

More pictures, because I'm procrastinating

Saw a really cool ( moth )

These are pics taken in my room but you have to overlook the mess because I took these last night, before I straightened up.

A brand spanking new episode of Supernatural tonight. The wait is nearly over. *yay!*

Anyone know when Dexter Season 2 will be on DVD? Any idea?


( fixated on health issues )


Still haven’t uploaded any of the pictures I’ve taken this week. Maybe I’ll save up and just make a picture post this weekend.

The day is dragging. Still six more hours until I go back to the Dr. I’m so not freakin’ patient. I’m so used to getting everything I want, “NOW! Thank you”.

Anticipation is the worst.

Ok so my lunch hour was not completely shot. I managed to watch a half of Dexter Father Knows Best which didn't tape last week for some reason and I wound up taping Cold Case instead.

My horoscope for the day:
Cristina,
Another moody morning will give way to an afternoon of relaxation. You will finally have some control over the situation and are happy to have others benefit from your excellent organizational skills.


Well, the morning part was right. We'll see about the rest.

Under the cut there is rambling. Probably not that interesting.

( still with the potty mouth )
Back to work now...

I buckled down and worked like a fiend this morning. My boss has been gone all day. That means that I am now officially busy looking like I'm working.

Gotta keep up appearances.

I decided to change my user info page up a bit. I got rid of some of the older quotes and decided to post the whole thing, the way it was (except the colorbars and such), here in case I change my mind. I'm fickle like that.

( Read more... )

Because I know I should be sleeping by now. I guess its time to change sleeping pills, again.

Just notes for myself since I am about to leave work.

Move along, ( nothing to see here )

The boys are being real sports about having to postpone their birthday party from this Saturday, to next. Their grandfather is leaving Saturday morning for a few days. This means I get a few days off work. I'm taking the kids out for sushi and then to GameStop. They'll be thrilled. Then next weekend we can have the party with the enormous cake and 42 kids.

*rereads that*
*hopes they don't all show up*

shoot me now

This is really just for me. I made a list of me and the boys' movies. It's super freakin' long so it goes under a cut.

( movie list )

I wish that this man in my office would stop talking. He reminds me of the guy who worked at Tortuga’s with me. You remember? The one I tried to kill in the kitchen. Surely I posted that. *here it is* http://grimmy23.livejournal.com/383554.html

He’s got all kinds of stories, talks too damn loud and is trying mighty hard to f***ing impress me, or his mom, but probably me. I am not amused.

why don’t you shut up?

Its been over an hour, and now he invented touch typing. He claims to type over 85 words a minute, typing with his two index fingers. I want him to go away before they see the real me.

***He finally left, one and one half hours in my office.***

I found this post from a few years ago and it made me smile
http://grimmy23.livejournal.com/231295.html

New icons, new fandoms, been away from lj for a long time. Nothing has changed really. Just working really. I guess that has changed. I moved far away and now I do nothing. I work, I read, I play video games and I obsess over my fandoms . I don't go out because there is nothing to do within a thirty minute drive. I could go see movies I guess but I have netflix so I really don't feel the need. I do most of my shopping online so... hmmm... I've become kinda boring.

But no one up here really knows me so that's good. Every once in a while some get a flash of me and I get a comment about how I have a hidden wild side. But I sit in my office, working for the conservatives and its all good. I feel like a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Its kinda cool really.

So, I spent the weekend in Baytown.

( friday night )

So, just came back from a weekend in Texas. Fun stuff.

There was drinking, debauchery and a long talk with M.
All in all it was a great weekend. But I got in last night and when I first started talking, I realized that I was hoarse. Hell today, I'm on the verge of losing my voice.

grr... argh...

I checked the snail mail this morning and I had a letter from my ex-mil.
She tells me that the pig-dog-bastard is back in jail. Looking at six years I think she said. *crosses fingers*

There might wind up being a smut post. Not sure yet. I have enough material from this weekend but not sure if I'm up to writing it yet.

I'm bored so...

( Who is love? )
I realized this morning that I need to start sleeping because I'm starting to look like a junkie or something. Not good. Last night though sex won over sleep.

it usually does

So I went to play cards with my mom and her friends tonight. We rode together because my dad was asleep and it seemed like too much effort to wait for my mom to leave, move his truck, move my car to the street, and then move his truck again.

So, we're driving down the road and I think out loud.

Me: I wonder why they built a Methodist Church on this street.
Her: It's better than a night club.
Me: It would be close though, I could walk there.
*omit brief argument about being abducted and the likelyhood of that*
Her: Well you could walk to the Church.
Me: I don't go to church.
Her: *sarcastic tone* No. It's against your religion.
Me: *laughs so hard I slide down in my seat and gasp for breath*
