February 8th, 2008Drink the Wild Air

Just messin’ around… I don’t think this is great, by any stretch of the imagination, but there’s something about it that I like.

Seahorse edited

I’ve got killer heart burn again.
:sick:

I picked up one of the most horrid, trashy books at the recommendation of a bookstore clerk: Bedlam, Bath and Beyond. I can’t put it down.
:huh:

Every time I get angry at Lost and vow to never watch it again, they drag me back in.
:X

I hope to never give Hewlett Packard another dime again.
:gloom:

I’m sooo ready for spring!
:bounce:

Remember how I said that my new USB drink chiller/warmer is the suck? The cooling part doesn’t work very well, but the warmer warms, and it means it.

When it comes to the presidential election, my only wish is that Huckabee goes down in flames.
:P

And that’s all I got…

Have a great weekend!!!
