Now that my craving for salt has abated, I wonder what I'm going to do with the 3-gallon jar of pickles in the fridge, the large jar of green olives in the pantry, and those tins of sardines?  Hm.

Also, how much do I love Jon Stewart?  THIS MUCH.  His take on the Gaza conflict made my day.  Love, love, love that man!

(That means I got home early enough tonight to catch the 8pm repeat.  Woo.)

Missed the whole LJ implosion kerfluffle...my paid account expires tomorrow.  Hm redux.

Oh hey, [livejournal.com profile] smutty_claus has done its reveal!  I wrote a Draco/Luna fic (which keeps threatening to turn into a full-blown, multi-chaptered fic 'o' doom) and [livejournal.com profile] ely_baby wrote a great Harry/Hermione fic for me.  The master fic list is here.

Lately most of my posts start with the usual apologies...busy, tired, busy, etc.  Nothing's changed, yeah.

Randomly:

--Have taken up water aerobics on the weekends.  It's kind of fun, although some of the folks give me dirty looks :(  I hope I never gave anyone those looks in the past (although I doubtlessly did).

--I bought a heart rate monitor to start tracking my calories burned/time in target zones.  I love new toys.  :-)  Also because I can't seem to lose any weight to save my life, even though I'm getting in the recommended 30-60 minutes of cardio 6 days a week (including 3 hours on Monday/Wednesday).  My ass is dragging and I want to see results, dammit.  I do suspect that my step/spinning instructor has ruined me with her take-no-prisoners workouts.  Wah.

--I broke my 10 minute mile the other night.  It's something.

--Have been reading the flist and sporadically commenting.  Much loff to you all, as usual.

'Night.  :)

Still not ready to talk about Book 7 - I think I want to get through another reread listen before I put words to binary.

Hope you all had a great week and are enjoying yer weekends. :)
quidditchgrrl: (Jon is feeling pretty today!)

I did get to ask Jon Stewart a few questions at the reading I went to.  My questions were prefaced by my thanks for making it okay to actually READ the newspaper again.  Jon immediately perked up and said, "Do you do the crossword puzzles?"

"Of course!  Both of them!" I said, surprised.

"The word scramble, too?"

"Yup, I do everything, even the Sudoku!"

"Cool!"

Today I got in a movie on reserve called Wordplay, which is a documentary about Will Shortz, the New York Times Crossword Puzzle, and its fans.  One of those fans is Jon. 

Now, that whole riposte makes sense.  :)

quidditchgrrl: (Grr!)
Dear asshole idiot driver with Michigan plates,

When a State Trooper comes screaming down the interstate, lights and sirens blaring, it is customary to SLOW DOWN and PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT. Pacing me so that I can't move out of the way is not only dangerous, but a good reason for me to sideswipe you and run you off the road.

Fortunately, jamming the gas and cutting you off did the trick.

No love, and waiting to kick your ass on the 18th,
PBG

In other news, the Rolling Stone with Jon and Stephen on the cover was slated for delivery today. I haven't gotten my issue! Wah!

Quote of the day: "I bought some meth, but I threw it away." AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Good one.

Whatever. Have a good weekend! :D
