merely talk

rantings and ravings with little cohesion and plenty of pretension

 

In Review

+ Sisterhood of the traveling Pants is a good movie.

- Boys suck and have made me sad, which really pisses me off.

- One of my kids is moving next week and I won't see him ever again, which makes me really sad.

+ Anna found a Gerry Butler look alike at one of our favourite restaurants. Best part is he works there, so we'll be visiting the spot several times in the next two months.

- I have to go into work tomorrow, and stay there for a long time catching up on busy work.

- I really need to get started on my essay.

+ I have wonderful friends, who want to hang out with me even though I'm going through a rough mood swingy time.

- I'm having a rough mood swingy time.

- I have anemia, and have to try to incorporate more iron in my diet. Which is really hard, because most foods high in iron also happen to be high in fat and I've trained myself to not eat them.

+ I've managed to stay on top of the mess my brother has made of my apartment and have contained the sloppiest bits to his room and his bathroom.

- Do to the increase in iron heavy foods, I've gained two pounds.

- The rain is not going away, no matter how much I sing the song.

So overall things aren't great right now. We're at a 2 to 1 bad stuff ratio. Perhaps if the weather improves my mood will too. A girl can hope.

By my count, I need to add 5 "+'s" to make your ratio favourable. Here goes;

1) Howl's Moving Castle is here! We will watch it.

2) While having anemai sucks, knowing what it is is quite nice. Now you don't have to worry about that whole alien parasite making you wonky possibility.

3) You are hot.

4) Every Saturday, there is apparently a free wine-tasting close to my work. More importantly, they have cheese.

5) Mood swings? Not so bad. It is far better to be enotionally dynamic than it is to be consistently pissy and/or upset. Swings=happy in there somewhere, even if just for a while.

6) Boys do suck, but you should tell me which in particular, so that I may go and give them a piece of my mind. And not a good piece, either. I keep those for people I LIKE. And after the not good piece of mind has been delivered, we can get some food, some iron supplements, and watch more Newsradio.

See, I even tossed in an extra one! Ratio back to good.
