Went re-shopping tonight.
You know re-shopping, right?
After you realize all the crap you forgot the last time you go and redo your shopping?
Though this time it was all about the popsicles.
Remember yesterday's post about the epic fail?
Dude, those things were nasty. So I ditched them and went back to my regular ones and guess what, they were on sale!! Score!!
2 boxes of 20 for only $6.00 total.
That'll last me like 2 weeks, I'm stoked!!
Okay, 3 tops.
Did I mention my love of popsicles?
Aside from the day flying by not much else to say.
In kind of a funk.
And it's a guilty funk which is the worst kind of funk.
Cause I'm surrounded by people who have legitimate reasons to be in a funk but they're not and I am.
So what the crap?
Oh well, I'm off tomorrow - good thing as it's 3AM now - so I'll sleep and get over it.
"i'm the worst kind of a cougar, a self-hating cougar"
Name that sitcom.
Irony is I just watched a clip of her back when she was Daphne with Niles on Frasier. I got hooked on that show back in early '11. Still quote it from time to time.
"just passing by, thought i'd stop in for a career."
Speaking of clips, found this one highly amusing.
Yes someone did literally go through every episode of Castle analyzing his theory of him saving Beckett more times than Beckett saving him.
watch and learn.
Alright on to the music.
2012's Greatest Hits: Day Two
Mitt Romney Style - College Humor
listened to this one while voting for Mitt Romney. don't think that's what it was meant for but it worked for me.
Pumped Up Kicks - Foster the People
also very popular on the Voice. heard it twice in two seasons.
50 Ways To Say Goodbye - Train
the boyfriend and i agree. we weren't major fans of Train when they first hit it big, mostly because the radio played "drops of jupiter" over and over and over and over, but their latest hits are pretty good.
I could write a blog. I have thoughts.
Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

Remember, romantic comedies are like cellulite cures, every one of them is a lie.
Three guesses as to what I'm watching, but it's back for the season and still highly entertaining.
So, I pounded out the 9 hours as planned, even survived some grocery shopping afterward.
But I was on strict orders from BossLady about getting orange juice and other nutrients that aren't included in popsicles and flavored water. Cause apparently you can't live on flavored water and frozen flavored water.
Though now all I can think of is, "you ventured out into the jungle for the creamy goodness of peanut butter and came back with the wrong colored apple and flavored frozen water?!"
Ah, good times.
But the 9 hours weren't so bad with the whole "fake it 'til you make it" motto. Except apparently I wasn't so good at the faking part today cause every time the BossLady would catch me dragging my feet she'd tell me to go home. But I'm stubborn and it's all mental so I stayed.
Even after the other supervisor told me I looked like crap.
Well, she didn't put it that way but it was implied.
So much love.
They're all like mothers seriously, except for the Library Judge. He was the only male on staff today and the only one who didn't tell me to go home.
I didn't think I was that bad.
But now I have the weekend off to sleep and actually spend time with my boyfriend which has been really not happening lately as he was sick and then he was sick again and then I was sick. Just blah.
Anyway, no work AND NO CLASS leaves me time to actually do something. Aside from sleep. I did finish the last major assignment in one of my classes. Only one thing left - plus some discussion boards - but really I should have written this paper like a week ago cause I've already done the interview, it's just transcripting it really.
Is that a word? Transcripting? Or is it transcribed? Transcribing? Is that a word? Am I really that out of it that my English Majorism is gone for the night already?
Blah.
Whatever, anyway, I want to get some Xmas shopping done at some point - speaking of I actually thought of some exciting stuff other than luggage, vacuum, bookshelves and, ah crap, what was the fourth boring thing?
Anyway, sent a couple of book titles to the Favorite Sister In Law and of course Charlie's Angels season five is out now on DVD - woohoo! Except it's in a box set and I have the first four and you can't buy it by itself so it'll have to be off Amazon.
Other than that Burn Notice season five is debatable.
I think I need a break from Michael Weston. This whole sickness has me watching far too much of it. Like it was on in the background whilst writing the paper I just submitted - cause I can't work when it's quiet - on tuned to the episode that I've fallen asleep watching like 5 times within the last week.
Though kind of ineffective since I had my headphones in anyway.
I'm not productive without those, it's pathetic really.
Yes, I know, Millennial generation, and yet you're still reading this.
Where was I? Oh right, Christmas shopping at some point, plus I wanna swing by Grams' place to take a look before everything gets painted and all that. Though I guess I can't call it Gram's place anymore. We joked about coming up with a name for the property. I think now they're calling it the Cottonwood Estate or something cheesy. We can do better than that.
Oh yeah, in case you weren't aware, my sister and her husband bought Grams' house after she moved out and into a home. I lived there for a summer with her before I had to go back for college. But they're big into renovation and all that so it should be interesting.
Similar to how my brother bought my other grandparent's house and revamped it.
Alright, enough rambling. Gonna get back to Hot In Cleveland and crash so I can enjoy the sleeping in factor.
As it is already 3AM and I want to have time to do stuff tomorrow that needs to start immediately.
Clip of the night:
"don't just stand there joy, come on!"

Wake me up before you go-go
It was a day for reunions.
A few old friends came to the farmhouse today - my new years crew - and we played a lot of Dance Dance Revolution, watched some Hot In Cleveland, ate some good food, and laughed about old times. It was fun seeing them again.
But now I either really suck at DDR or I need new mats.
I'm gonna go with the second one.
Cause it wasn't a pretty sight.
And even though there was a lot of old things I also learned some new things today as well such as:
-You CAN play Simpson's Road Rage with a DDR mat, I just don't recommend it. It's a little hard to steer when you have to keep your foot on the X button while trying to go left and right with the arrows. See, these are the friends that have literally known me forever so they're used to my forgetfulness. Totally forgot the regular controllers which does't matter for DDR but it does make other games a heck of a lot easier.
-There are a serious amount of episodes on one disc of Hot In Cleveland. I thought there would be like 4 there's actually like 10. Which I should know because it's mine.
-There's a show called "Big Shrimping" on the History Channel cause my dad made me watch before I could leave. It's a lot like Swamp People but it's with shrimp instead of alligators. Not as cool. But I also watched an entire season of Red Green with him this weekend and enjoyed it so not all of his shows are bad.
-Also, NCIS LA isn't so bad. I didn't like it as much as the original so I stopped watching but Deeks is fantastic, I like him so I might start that up again. Just what I need, another show in my lineup. My DVR is full as it is now!
-Carter will jump a barricade to be in the room that I am in. Cause he loves me and he's cute. But he chews on trees and would go all Catzilla! on the snow village so he gets sectioned off when he's upstairs. So he jumped the table blocking the door. He's a mama's boy. And spoiled rotten, though he stayed at the farm cause I'm just going back next weekend.
It was an awesome vacation, a little sad it's over but Christmas is still not past for our family as we're not having ours until the 1st. Huzzah!
And now for some reunion music.
In honor of my Warped friends, yes these are the Denver Warped Tour friends mentioned in multiple posts but mostly here: My Life in Closed Captions: New Shoes, the Cheese Speech, Warped Tour and MXPX... I give you some Gogol Bordello. Cause this song never gets old. We saw them live at Warped and it was so different from every other act, they really are gypsy punks. I really need to upload the pictures. Will work on that over New Years.
"Start Wearing Purple" Gogol Bordello
and now for my other reunion, amusing when you're planning to meet for half an hour and end up talking for 3 hours. this may actually work.
"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" Wham
nice short shorts.
OUT!

Singing my life with his words
Day off.
More productive than I planned.
Woke up before noon.
Whoa.
Picked up my computer stuff.
Picked up my painted stuff.
Did the phone online stuff.
Made dinner plans with the Cool Aunt.
Went to church.
Oh my god, the guest stars on Hot In Cleveland. Hysterical. It was Roz! She was in LA! at the same table as Joy! Who played Daphne on Frasier. so that was humorous. Nice ties there. This episode it's Amy Sedaris. Before that it was Susan Lucci.
I love this show.
Season two is out on DVD. It's winter this time. Last season it was summer.
"You're my friend!"
"Yes, and as your friend I'm horrified by my actions."
"The beards are designed to tell single women to stay away."
"They're working."
K-Recs.
"Keep Breathing" Ingrid Michaelson
she's pretty good live.
"I'm trying to decide whether I want that to be a euphemism."
"Well, I could say 'move your donkey' but it's not as satisfying."
"Keep On Lovin' You" Steel Magnolia
no it's not the song you're thinking. but listen to it anyway, it's fantastic.
"Somebody just run the blender. I don't even care if there's anything in it."
"I thought you wanted to be amish."
"Turns out I was just amish-ish."
"Killing Me Softly" The Fugees
favorite song in high school
"How hard is it to make lemonade? No I mean, really? How hard is it? I seriously have no idea."
"Maybe my date could part them."
"He's Jesus, not Moses."
"I wish he'd break up my date with Jesus. I'd break up with him myself but he'd just show up three days later."
OH MY GOD another frasier tie-in. it's the dad. whoa.

"It sunk, we're over it!"
Wow, 23. Don't really feel any different, are you supposed to?
I think I was eating a fruit rollup and watching Hot in Cleveland at midnight. At 3:09 I was staring at my phone during break, that's when I was officially 23, I cheered, the girl next to me probably thinks I'm crazy. It was funny, I walked into class, gave the library goddess her iced coffee and she gave me a giant cookie that said happy birthday on it. Awesome!
Quotes of the day:
"Context is in the eye of the beholder"
"Let's talk about half that cookie..."
"There's a lot of large type books on treadmills out there."
"Why are we looking up magazine articles on the Titanic? It sunk, we're over it...Why would you go to that movie? We know how it ends! I can save you some money, it sinks!"
"You can't update Huckleberry Finn!" "Oh but you can...and they did."
"Interoperability...haha, FACE!"
"It's more like fun than like a torture manual."
After class I met up with some family for dinner then headed to my apartment and my fat cat. He was happy to see me until after he got his supper, then he didn't care anymore.
Tomorrow is halfday then heading out to the farmhouse since Monday we're closed for Presidents Day. Love working for the city, awesome.
Get on your bikes and ride!

"There it isn't!"
Lost my juice. It became like a treasure hunt before opening. I need one of those tool belts I could put it in so I don't lose it again.
Quote of the day comes from my supervisor:
"A joyous observation on the day of your birth."
"What?"
"Happy birthday."
"Oh, thanks!"
I LOVE HOT IN CLEVELAND!! Oh man, hysterical! Betty White is amazing as ever but with the other three - I mean, I loved Wendie Malick in Just Shoot Me and basically everything else she's been in but it's like the role was written for her. It's like Nina Van Horn all over again except this time her name is Victoria and she's an actress. Then Daphne from Frasier, aka Jane Leeves, plays Joy the awful british hair expert. She's not a british hair expert but she's british and she does hair, or rather removes it, and she's awful, but hilarious. Then Valerie plays the lead, Melanie, who's this klutzy writer who really means well. Then of course there's Betty White who plays the caretaker of the estate that they are renting. She and Betty White go back and forth a lot. Basically, they're from LA and they're on a plane to France but it has to make an emergency landing in Cleveland and when they hit the town and everyone loves them they decide to stay. You have to check it out, awesome.
"Oh shutup, I hear music swelling."
"Just because I'm chained to the fence doesn't mean I can't bark at the dogs!"
"God I hate jocks!"
"You were married to a wide receiver!"
"I still don't know what sport that is!"
"But the funnel, that's what makes the cows fly!" (tornado)
Fantastic, seriously look into it. There are so many good lines and the actresses are constantly cracking up. I'm wondering how much is ad-libbed.
Soooo, tomorrow...class...then who knows. I guess there's not really a plan anymore since everyone's sick.
I feel like I should stay up til midnight at least. So I'm up. Submitted my paper when I got home from work, I should probably konk out soon since I have class at 1. Woohoo? I'm sure it'll be fine.
More later.
