i have “california” by metro station stuck in my head. i feel like moose and i spent the whole day trying to get the spinning wheel to work. it still does not work. i am going to leave some very mean feedback on ebay about this stupid thing. i’m so frustrated and annoyed and upset. [...]

my boss gave me a paid vacation day for my last day of work at the hedge fund. i immediately packed up my hedge fund computer to be shipped back to them, got in my car, and drove to minneapolis. the drive took nine hours, because i got to drive 80 most of the way [...]

today jozelle and i were invited to brunch at a restaurant that is located inside a windmill. i had a delicious potato pancake. eight cups of coffee. blah blah blah, my day, etc. i have spent the whole afternoon/evening listening to the same six my chem songs on repeat. i think it’s time for something [...]

woke up around 4 am this morning. i’ll probably nap later. for now, i am in the kitchen in my rocking chair, with my knitting and breakfast, watching sg-1. i’ve been skipping the “world of the week” episodes, and trying to only watch episodes that pertain to arcs. it’s remarkably easy. the cats are taking [...]
