brightbluegirlI have the theme to 21 jumpstreet running through my head. Heh. Or should I say Jumping?
I know, I know, I'm a laugh riot.
Last night was a delightful hermitting night. On getting home, I was able to do 45 minutes on the bike before starting dinner. Dinner wasn't QUITE ready when Andrew got home (pasta with a pumpkin sauce, with a side dish of dijon mustard brussels sprouts, YUM), but it still worked out great.
Ran to the post office to pick up my birthday package from Andrew's folks (they were going to bring it to me last week, but Andrew's mom is a teacher, so the strike changed everything), but then once we got home, the rest of the evening was for ourselves...
We didn't do much, but it was nice anyway. It felt like the first evening we really had to just chill. Sure, the dishes needed to be done, the place was untidy, the kitty litter could have used changing, and there was a list of chores other than that to do... but we took the time off anyway.
Tonight I'm going to try to do several chores before he gets home, along with making a greek style red lentil soup. After he's home, there's a workout to do, and then hopefully I'll get the rest of the evening again.
I'm hoping to hermit for at least a week. I know I always talk about it, but things just get so damn busy. And of course Halloween is coming up, so there are parties on parties on parties to go to... I still want to avoid them all. Andrew says he'll make my costume for me... even make me wings if I still wanna be a faerie. Which, of course, I do. Damn him for being all sweet and bribing me with faerie-ness. Heh.
Well, I'll wear a costume if I don't have to put much work into it. And if it makes me feel pretty.
I don't know what to WEAR, though. You know, other than the wings. It must be a dress or skirt. I must feel pretty in it... and it pretty much must exist in my wardrobe. *Sigh*
I have been watching so much 21 jumpstreet. I'm trying to save them, parcel them out for good behaviour... 1 episode is 45 minutes on the bike, so I watched one this morning, and I've only got 4 episodes left for this season. I'm so disappointed. It's not like I can afford to just go out and buy a season when I feel like it. Heh.
Now, of course, 21 jumpstreet has nothing on CSI or Law and Order for due process and logical behaviour and crossing all the t's and whatnot... but I'm still REALLY enjoying watching all these. It's this incredibly romantic vision of being a police officer, of each of the characters, and of the stories involved. It's really, actually, quite sweet.
It's not surprising that I like sweet, romantic stories, even though my logic center spends a lot of time telling me how x wouldn't work or y isn't thorough enough, or whatever. Not romantic as in "romance", but romantic. Seeing things through rose-coloured glasses. Sweet. More about the people than the plot. I'm such a sucker.
This is why I like 80's movies so much. Heh. And the first several seasons of 90210. So sue me...
Speaking of logic... sudoku, where have you BEEN all my life??
Tomorrow Andrew is going to spca to get the new flea/mite/worm stuff that's out - Revolutions or whatever it's called. We'd been reluctant to use it - partially because Andrew gets a deal on anything he buys at the pet store, and partially because it's new and it's hard to tell the side effects when something is new.
But anyway. The cats have fleas again (possibly still), and so Andrew did more research, and we're going to try that stuff after all. It's definitely more expensive, but I just want happy healthy kitties.

Kev and i were talkign tonight about how relaxing was not so much accepted in my OLD house, but how i welcome it with Him. He's able to take time and mellow out but we hafto watch out for each other, we could easily talk each other out of doing ANYTHING productive if we let each other.

Date: 2005-10-26 02:13 pm (UTC)And I just read in your other entry that you got a birthday card, which means either your birthday is coming up or I've missed it - either way I had no idea, so I'm sorry, and I hope that you're birthday has been fabulous (or will be fabulous). Were there/are there big plans?

Date: 2005-10-27 11:40 pm (UTC)We have been using Revolution on our cats for a long time. It is really the best thing. I have a lot of experience with the products from vet nursing, and I like it best. No bugs at all, and they have been playing outside.
Fleas are a real problem in Vancouver.
