Den Of Edgy Female Irkfulness

Days Walking - 64

...It's like the House of a Thousand Corpses, but smaller.

I did me some journalism in school and now I'm a big snob when I read papers (cause my grammar and diction are ever so propah) and I had to laugh when I read this:

Light earthquake jolts Southcentral Alaska
"A light earthquake jolted Southcentral Alaska Sunday afternoon, ripping through Anchorage and surrounding areas."

Can a light earthquake go ripping through? That's like saying "A gentle breeze ravaged through Kansas today..." It was only a 4.9, and I'm from Los Angeles, so uh yeah, we had a few hundred quakes a month. I'm jaded when it comes to tremors.

On the Medical Front, no one has suffered from frostbite lately! We should have one of those changeable signs with 'X Days Since a Frostbite Disaster'. Anneli's rash is still lingering, though it hasn't spread. She's tried different soaps, using the wet naps, not using the wet-naps, no improvement. As long as I don't get it.

Kwame's sister will have her hearing tomorrow. I'll bet she'll be glad when it's over. I know Kwame will. He doesn't sleep well when he's not worrying about loved ones spending years in prison. And this has not been an improvement.

Since I can't have a spoon of amazing glowingness - Darth Robin, I didn't mean to say your spoon was useless - it would be useless to me, since I am sans milk. And cereal. Sniffle. I tried to at least work on my blog template a bit. I wanted to do the peekaboo comments thing. I followed all of the instructions to the letter, and nothing happened.

You'd think it would have royally screwed my blog if I'd done it wrong, but no - it was exactly the same. I successfully republished, but nothing. So obviously I did something incorrectly. I pasted the old template code back in there, and saved it. Screw it. Maybe my template is not friendly to that hack. Whatever.

It's interesting that Kato is the Jedi of the readers. Robin, who knew? Maybe smokers are automatically e-vited to The Dark Side? (and G-Mail?)

Rrrh!! Have I mentioned lately that Church is the bitchiest bitch that ever did bitch? It's true. I'm sure she feels the same way about me. And to think I missed rooming with her. The days of her bringing me hot cocoa (ok, it only happened once) are long gone. And Anneli. Psht don't even mention that name.

The three of us now have synchronized cycles, and today there were three very grumpy bitches berthing together in this teeny den of edgy female irkfulness. Redrum redrum REDRUM.

Or Peach Schnapps, you know. Whatever.

As I was digging through the bags last night looking for the backup satellite system battery - which I still have not found, I'm beginning to think they have hidden it from me out of spite - I came across a bottle of aspirin. It made a funny, non-rattling noise when I shook it, so I (redrum!) opened it up. Turns out, all the jouncing around in the bottle turned the tablets into powder. Mebbe that's what the cotton was supposed to be for, I've always wondered.

Right now (redrum!) I am eating Ramen and craving Pho. That's a Vietnamese soup, by the way, and it's a delicacy - in my book, at least. If you've never had it, I heartily recommend that you dash down to the nearest purveyor of such freshly cooked foreign goods and try it immediately.
