You're so Vain, You Probably Think this LJ is About You

Jeep is violently shaking when I hit a certain speed, either accelerating or decelerating. Oh, 2012...it is too early for you to start kicking my ass.

In refinancing news (achieving a New Years resolution wot wot), am trying to decide whether or not to pay my closing costs up front or roll them back into the loan. I don't really have $3K lying around but if I roll it into the loan, I will be paying PMI and thus less principal on the house. It feels like I am going backwards, especially if I do the 30 year loan instead of the 20 year one.



Yeah, like that.

I would have updated this weekend but I was curled up on the couch, praying for Death's sweet release.

( I dunno...cut because I talk about my girly business... )

The good thing about not wanting to move around much is that I got a fair amount of reading done. I zoomed through Goblet of Fire and am just about through with Order of the Phoenix. This is my third go through the Harry Potter series and I love it as much as I ever did (although I never realized how often Hermione moaned - kinky!).

Work is always work and one minute I am being hailed as awesome and the next, I am being spoken to like the village idiot. I hate that BTW - if you ever really want to piss me off, be as patronizing as possible. You will see my eyeballs boil in their sockets and have the satisfaction of seing Pretentious Mel get her betch on.

I think I am going to have pancakes for dinner. I used to love it when my dad would make us pancakes for dinner...it always felt like we were being bad! LOL.

Texas governor Rick Perry is running for President? Excuse me while I hurl. This man has no right holding public office but unfortunately an overwhelming number of Texans disagree with me. He is like... a less attractive and charming Sarah Palin.

This news coming after a particularly horrible work day is just the shit icing on my crap cake.

So, I came home and ate my feelings:


pan dulce, yum!

I don't really serve it on a serape with a side of maracas...this is just to give you a visual.

Maybe some Mighty Boosh will make me feel better. Although, really, the only thing that would cheer me up right now is a phone call informing me that I have won the lottery and can stop working immediately.

I have spent all morning being domestic and shit. I made breakfast, did a couple of loads of laundry, washed the dishes, and mended a torn pocket. MENDED. Now, I am making potato salad for the oven fried chicken I will be whipping up later.

Sometimes I kinda like being domestic, staying at home and working on things where there is a tangible sense of completion. All I need is to find some sucker to pay all my bills so I can do just that...LOL!

My mystery date with JP on Saturday was a trip downtown to the Magik Theater to see the Ju Percussion Group. They are awesome! If you ever get a chance to check them out, do it. They are talented and obviously enjoy what they are doing.

In news of the retarded, I have been checking obsessively to see if more tickets for the Swell Season were going to be released (with no luck) but on the day of the actual concert (yesterday) I forgot to check (because I am a dumbass) and guess what? They released more tickets! I realized this when I checked twitter at around 11PM last night. Ugh. Oh, Stupidity, why do you never leave me?
