Did I ever tell you about the time...

I'm doing laundry right now.

Firstly.

I thought in a building with only two washers and two driers it was just ~done~ to only take up one at a time. However, the other tenants of my building seem to think differently (effers) and now so will I. Yes, so will I.

But I just remembered something that happened a couple of months ago.

You know when you're doing laundry you can lose track of how many loads you've done or what machines you used to do them? At least ~I~ never keep track of these things. And that will explain my not-so-quick-to-act portion of my story.

Anyway...

I was doing laundry. Someone else was doing laundry, too, and was at the drying portion of the event. They had taken the top dryer.

My wash was done and I was gunna load the bottom dryer. I opened the washer lid and noticed that my wash had been 'gone through'. I just shrugged it off as someone who probably was missing a sock and used the washer before me.

I continued to load the dryer and when I glanced up at the top dryer, among the dark towels was a flash of pink.

Then a flash of yellow.

Then a flash of pink and yellow.

I have pink panties. I also have yellow panties.

And sure as you're sitting there skimming and disinterested in this blog, I opened the door of the top dryer and retrieved my panties!

Mulling this over while climbing the stairs back to my apartment...and then still while I was telling my boyfriend this story...I (and I hate that I have this ability) came up with a perfectly reasonable explanation. I must've used that dryer and my panties stayed inside.

So, when my boyfriend suggested we wait downstairs and confront whoever attempted to steal my panties, I lamed out.

Now, in hindsight, he was right. I didn't use that dryer that day.

Creepy, hey?

I washed the panties twice over but never was able to wear them again and sadly threw them out.

While I'm at it, I think I ought to pass on some links that I think are purdy durn interesting.

Fer instance:

1/ Hands. This guy collects pictures of hands. I used to go to chat sites and request pictures of people's bellies with my name written on them, but no one did it. Effers. This guy's got a ~ton~ of hands.

(hey...I'd forgotten all about that project. If anyone wants to do it, feel free.)

2/ Skeletons. Ever wonder what your favorite cartoon character would look like a few years after they died? This guy has the answer.

3/ Living. She takes the coolest photos of live animals and insects doing what they do.

4/ Alice. If you love stuff, you'll love this. Alice in wonderland done by the nifty little designers at FGA.

Wow...that's Tura Satana. You may remember her from Faster Pussycat, Kill Kill. That little creation of Mr. Grubby himself, Russ Meyer, that became the favourite of every rockabilly and the occassional non-retarded person, too. I have to admit, I get a kick outta it and pop it in the VCR every so often.

I guess she still looks good, but think about ~this~. She used to date Elvis. Now, I'm putting up my dollars against your doughnuts that The King didn't spend nearly as much time on his appearance as our lovely Ms. Satana has in her bosom-y life, so imagine what he would look like now.



Soooo....what's been up? I've been away from blogging for awhile and am eager to get back in the saddle. And, dude...this is a great find.

I have to say...for all the uproar that my life is supposed to contain currently, I've not felt so calm and in control for a very long time. I had a dream the other night. It was a really crazy, violent dream and it disturbed me so much that I woke up at 5 am and ate half my kitchen. But...what disturbed me most of all was that I was actually just hungry...not particularly bothered by the fact that in my dream I bashed this guy's face against the floor so hard that he died or by the fact that I killed him because he was trying to hurt me. AND the guy used to be this guy I used to work with...that I don't hate.

So, I thought about it.

And the next day, I realized that I ~regularly~ have chase-y, stalk-y, hurt-y dreams in which I'm trying to fight back but can't. THIS one was the first time I can remember that I actually managed to win the fight. So...in the end, it was a pretty good dream after all.

the end.

Thanks for the quiz, Bumf. All I can say is that it ~better~ be 'linguistic intelligence' or my degree is for naught.

uh...

Dressed in a gold lame Gucci pant leg, the limb appeared to choke up as it described it's separation from the famed singer, "I...I had many wonderful years with Diamond Dave. I mean, we really high-kicked some butt together. Back in the 80's when he used to shave me and Lefty using champagne and caviar in place of foam...those years are precious to me. But, all good things...well, you know."

...and I was hooked...

I don't know who this is, but it's worth a look...

Stupid sweet addicting warcraft. It done took my baby away.

So...it's a new year and I've made a resolution or two:

1/ I will find new adjectives and USE them. I am 32 years old and should not be relying on the old standbys 'wicked' 'awesome' and 'cool' as often as I do.

okay...so I made one.

The rest are all stuff I was gonna do anyway:

1/ I will continue my exercise schedule.

2/ I will work towards getting back to school.

3/ I will learn more about my sweet sweet projectors.

yadda yadda yadda.

I'm bored with this post now, so whoever's reading this must already be gone.

What did you guys do for New Year's?

Not much.


I'd like to wish everyone who reads this a Happy New Year and hope that 2005 is a hootnanny.

by the way, check this guy's work out.
