Sleepy...

I love pushing daisies. I watch it every week and I know that at the very same time my Dad is watching it so that, for whatever weird reason, makes me happy. Today, I got an email from him only minutes before the start. It made my otherwise lame day pretty good.


I know who I am voting for. I am excited. Voting makes me happy, I get excited when I get to do it. I tend to stress out until the day of the election because generally I am still reading up on stuff and I can't make a decision. This year I'm ready, well kind of. I love Barack Obama.


The youtube don't vote video made me laugh.


I am going to Half Moon Bay for Sally's bachelorette weekend...it is supposed to pour in Half Moon Bay...I am bummed.


Our new room mate will be moving in on the 10th, the 10th!


I am severely homesick.


I love honey crisp apples. The Trader Joe's has a 1.5lb bag for so few dollars.


I love Temple. Come hang out with me in Sacramento and I will take you there, probably more than once.


I love Ned and Chuck.


3 ply toilet paper is amazing. Thank you Charmin.


There is a tiny part of me that wants to do what is good for my body and cut back on coffee but the majority is winning, I go through about 1.5 lbs of coffee a week.


Tis the effing season.


Our church was reviewed in the local News & Review...it bummed me out.


Pumpkin beer makes me want to vomit.


Lagunitas IPA Maximus is amazing.


Talking to Kate on the phone, if even for a moment, reminds me that everything is ok.


Webcams are good.


I love buffalo sauce.


And salt & vinegar chips.


I have found another nest of grey hairs on my head. One step closer to Emmylou Harris hair. I have come to terms with premature aging and I am sort of into it.


I will be in Long Beach from Nov. 23rd - Dec. 2nd. Wanna hang out? email me, facebook me, myspace me, call me, write me...whatevs. I want to hang out with you.

Skype?

So I just unpacked the web cam my mom gave me when I moved to Sacramento, downloaded Skype and I'm ready to chat: shan.littlemicrophones

Let it load and forward to 2:16, it is so good. HILARIOUS!

At the Staff Meeting...only moments ago...

I learned that Eric is unable to be productive for more than ten minutes without food or coffee.


Marc thought a solution to the no fridge in the office problem would be to fill the microwave with ice instead.


My fortune from Plum Blossom: The Chinese ancient civilization attracts you.
That is not a fortune...what happened to fortunes?


Marc ended the meeting with the 'whats up dog' joke.


I still have no peach rings.

For the love...

Have you bought the Bonnie Prince Billy CD yet?



Also, I love Fall.

Nostaligia

I was looking for the power cord to my electric stapler, yes I have an effing electric stapler. Well, it belongs to City Life and I am moving into the office. Anyhow, stapler. I opened box after box of crap and found nothing...I will prolly have to buy another power cord because I am a tard and put it somewhere 'safe'.

Instead I found...

Old pictures that made me smile: Memo and I, Memo and Mom, Tia Marta making tortillas that made me weep, NCC Youth circa '99?, House Church circa when it was only 4 or 5 of us...way back, Hutch, Mom and Askher....nostalgia is awesome.

Notes that made me laugh: From people that I never ever see anymore but wish I did.

Poems: That I tried to write or loved to read.

It was a good hunt.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly...

The Good:

Today I woke up without a headache and the combonation of zyrtec and darvocet made today a pressure free day.

I had a productive day at the office, I think it is pretty neat that I have an office.

I had dinner with the roomates, it was lovely. I was saddened to think that Sally is leaving us soon (oops I guess that goes in another category).

I love my book.

I bought a CD on a whim and it is good: Raphael Saaquid.

I ran into Phil and Joshua whilest out and about, I love working where I live.

I rode Carol's bike for my mode of transport all day. It was amazing.

The Bad:

Allergies.

Chapped lips and nose.

Farts.

Opossums living in my back yard which terrify me when I take out the trash.

Clumpy 1/2 & 1/2 (I wanted just a drop in my tea).

Cars that don't share the road.

Allergies.

Politics.

The Economy.

Long distance family.

Long Beach being 400 miles away.

The Ugly:

Flaky nose skin (from the chapped nose).

Swollen eye lids (from the allergies).

Road Kill.

A messy office.

Farts.

The End.
