i'm no crazy creep...
i've got it coming to me...

That's me and L. hanging out at our work "afterparty" that happened to be after our holiday party. It's been awhile since I posted a "human" pic in here...and since L. sent me this on Friday...figured I might as well post it.

I just got done watching the season premiere of Carnivale. In my mind, I knew that show was so messed up...but still, watching it tonight...I couldn't help but think, "What? This show is so weird..." I guess that's what makes it appealing. It continues to get creepier and weirder and creepier and weirder. To make up for the fact I had to use the main tv of the house (the only tv with HBO), I did a test drive of recording Desperate Housewives on my computer for my mom. Tomorrow I plan on testing things further and burning it onto DVD and seeing how that goes. I heart this computer. Next week, I won't need to record Desperate Housewives for my mom, though. I'm having a cablebox put in my room so I can take advantage of HBO---and recording HBO shows on my computer (yep, GENNIFER, Carnivale on DVD for you).

My parents bought a new couch on [sort of] a whim yesterday. They went to a place recommended to me by my "officemate" (that is what we are calling each other now...which is funny because more than once, I've wanted to call her my "roommate" because we share a "room." When we're feeling feisty, we decided we can say we're each other's secretaries...). I definitely now know where to get a cheap couch and stuff when I move out. Anyway, my sister and Aaron took our old couch...and passed their old couch (another one of our old couches) onto one of Aaron's friends. We no longer have that big sectional in our living room...just a cutely shaped plum colored couch and a cutely shaped plum colored chair. It's really weird... makes our living room look a whole lot bigger. My mom is sad, though, because there's not enough room for people AND cats to sit on the couch. Seriously.

As of late, when I get a chance to sit and think...I've had a lot on my mind. It's kind of driving me nuts. Because when push comes to shove...there really is no call for anything to be on my mind. I'm more neurotic than I gave myself credit for.

I'm gonna see if I can take Friday off this week. I have six days to use before March 31st. I have to use 'em or lose 'em, you know? I guess I'll get permission and see how my week goes. This week has potential for being crazy. Crazier than any work week I've labeled "crazy" before.

Wish I could be more open in this public place. Like I used to be.
