18 July
Today was the first day that I could sleep in for the longest time, and I was determined to do so. Evil forces tried to thwart me, but I didn't get out of bed until 1p no matter what! 'Course, I wasn't actually sleeping that entire time, but I did my best.
It started out with my having to get up to go to the bathroom at 7.30a, so I did, then dived back into bed, determined to slip easily back into dreamland. The cats, however, had other ideas.
They were each determined to cuddle as close to me as possible, and they were equally determined that no other cat should cuddle close to me at all, so there were some riveting fights right next to my head and all for half an hour or so.
Managed to sleep for a bit, but I live right smack dab next to a Little League baseball diamond. And it's Saturday.
So the game went from about 8a to 10.30a. They got real excited towards the end. Also, the cats wanted petting again.
I'm telling you, it took real determination to sleep until 1p!
Diary-L has gone totally to the dogs.
Last night there was a sudden plethora of idiotic posts from new subscribers with free e-mail accounts (possibly all from the same bright spark).
I woke up this morning, and there were 166 e-mails waiting, 125 of them from Diary-L. There are more than enough legitimate annoying assholes on the list without a bunch of fake ones as well.
It pretty much started with the following letter:
"Hi.I was wondering why you people continue to post inside jokes or specific replies to another which other people could care less about on this list.
It doesn't make sense.
You people, mostly you Americans, should be more considerate.
Thank You."
Personally, I think that that should be the logline for Diary-L:
"Diary-L, where people continue to post inside jokes or specific replies to one another which other people could care less about!"
Birthdays, birthdays everywhere!
We're getting into the birthday season, I notice. Marcio's was yesterday, Renee's was the day before, and Lizzie's is today!
And personally, I think that this is the most completely wonderful example of a person pimping their birthday that I have ever seen. And I know of which I speak, being a big old birthday pimper from way back!
It's a little early to start, I know, but it's on 23rd August if you want to mark your calendars, and I'll be 34, of all the elderly things you have ever heard of...
One year ago today:
Because a honking horn in NYC is so unusual, you see...
