you've given me nothing but shadoe stevens

i have to make this quick because i have a meeting in 20 minutes ! i was vaguely freaking out because i was asked at the last minute to explain something i don't know about at the meeting, but i figured it out and it should be fine, unless people ask me serious questions. basically, it's a thing you have to take a training class to do so no one else can do it without the class (literally, they won't have permission in our system), and i took the class last year but i only use one facet of the training, and i have to explain the other one i haven't thought about since the class. vague and boring, i know !

yesterday i had this big plan to drop my laundry off and go to the grocery store and stuff after work, so i got a car and went to pick up my cellphone at work (where i'd left it) and realized that i'd left my laundry at home. ahhhh. unfortunately i am super stubborn about backtracking, so basically i paid $10 for a car (and $10 to put gas in it because the last person left it empty !) to get my phone from work and pick up my birth control at cvs, which factually would be like.. a 20 minute walk. boooooo.

i don't really know why i'm so stubborn about backtracking. like, if i leave to go to the bank to deposit a check and realize i forgot to bring the check, i will just turn around and go home and go do it some other day. once i lock my apartment door and get outside, i refuse to go back in. raining with no umbrella? guess i'm getting soaked. grocery store with no list? guess i'm getting pop tarts and v8 !

yesterday was a good day at work- i had a ton of stuff on my to-do list and i finished everything but two things. i was super exhausted when i got home but i willed myself to stay awake, which ended in me going to bed at 9:30pm and uh, waking up at 11:30pm. before and after i went to sleep, i leveled my priest a little with paul and got some BoA gear. have i told you guys about my character names? my main is a rogue named harridan (a shrew-like woman !), my paladin is named saltpeter (potassium nitrate, which people believed was given to soldiers to keep them from getting boners), and now my priest is named solanas, after ye olde valerie solanas, author of the scum manifesto.

bleh. this morning i had to go pick up parking passes for my event, and i stopped and got my coworkers munchkins (fun fact: when i worked at dunkin donuts, almost every single person called these "munchkin holes" when they ordered them instead of munchkins or donut holes) and it was like, the biggest mistake ever. it's a mixture between

1) WHERE DID THESE COME FROM WHO BROUGHT THESE WHERE DID THESE COME FROM WHAT ARE THEY FOR???????
and
2) OH MY GOD THIS IS SO BAD I'M SO BAD WHO BROUGHT THESE THIS IS SOOOOOO BAD OMGGG CHOCOLATE OMG CATHY THIS IS SOOOOO BAD I'M SO BADDDDDDDDDDDD UGH

ultimate regret ! okay, i have to go to that meeting now. blehhhh.

  3. Why did they not want soldiers to get boners?

  4. i guess so they wouldn't get distracted from their work? or so they wouldn't f each other?

  5. ha. or so they'd have to treat them for less STDs. I was watching this documentary about Lewis and Clark and apparently STDs were a big problem towards the end of the expedition. Solders, explorers, I think they're pretty similar.

  6. Brooke, seriously amazing acronym-ing skills!!

    Roxy, I completely relate to your backtracking-related stubbornness. That's why I got soaked in the rain yesterday (yep, left at home) and had to wait until midnight last week to do some work on my SO's computer (mine was in the shop and I'd forgotten to bring home my work laptop). Like me, do you turn into a baby if you do decide to backtrack, like muttering under your breath about how you hate wasting time and doing things twice? Haha.

    Also, confession: Because I know everything about '90s one-hit wonders, my first thought about "Saltpeter" was the album of the same name by Ruby, featuring "Paraffin" and "Tiny Meat" songs so Hot Topically cheesy when they first came out that I'm scared to YouTube them now for fear of dying of embarrassment. (Er, sorry any past/present Ruby fans who may be reading this.)
