bits and pieces of the strange planet

i like to think of myself as nineteen with thirty years experience. heh.

big plans? nah, not really. at 5:30 AM the cell rang, but i let the voice mail pick it up because i couldn't find the phone -- my eyes were glued shut in SLEEP. that's S-L-E-E-P, people. then, at 6:45, some numb nuts outside my window found it necessary to blow the horn at approximately fifteen-second intervals, to what purpose i know not. it will remain one of the mysteries of the universe. at 7:30, the phone rang and it was my sister, and we spent a few hilarious moments discussing hoohahs and back problems. it was cool.

at 8:oo AM the knight called to say happy birthday and he sounds awful. he's got a cold -- but we're going to try and hook up later.

****

in the meantime, i have some maintenance stuff to take care of in the room and on the laptop. i think i might have to reinstall XP, and i'm very nervous about this. i have to burn some data CD's, back up the whole she-bang, and let her rip. this will be a true test of my geek worthiness -- maybe i can change my status from 'babygeek' to 'apprenticegeek'. i live in hope.

****

sparky left me a lovely present first thing this morning. (she's such a thoughtful kitty.) as soon as i stepped out of bed, i found it. it was hard to miss, as it was stuck to the bottom of my foot -- a gorgeous, nasty ass hairball.

wasn't that nice of her?

kinda sums up what i feel about birthdays, heh.

****

Miss Thang did *not* quit -- but i'm thinking it's only a matter of time. she can't handle it when it's this slow, she'll never, and i mean never, be able to handle a busy day. i'm sad about this, because on a personal level i am quite fond of Miss Thang. however, i can see trouble ahead, BIG trouble ahead. as a matter of fact, i have a heavy feeling of impending doom when i think about the busy season, which will be starting next month. the new software we're running seems to have quite a few holes in it, and since we are the Hotel Of Last Resort, if someone comes here with a reservation and we have no rooms, there is nowhere to walk them. meaning, we're the overflow. if we're full, there's not a hotel around in a ten to twenty mile radius to send these people. this is making all of us very nervous.

but hey! enough about work! this is my farking vacation! AND my birthday!

somebody smack me with a cluebat.

****

i did some work on Golden Chains, and although i'm not sure i'm happy with the direction, a friend of mine unearthed a really cool feature of G-Mail that allows you to work with someone online on a story. omg, it's the coolest thing! i love it. anyway, i recieved some great input on GC, so i might work on that today too. i haven't formatted "To The Promised Land" yet, so i need to do that and get it out.

i also want to catch up on 3Words and do some housekeeping at TSB.

i think i might go to wallyworld and see if they have the gloves with no fingers. my knuckles are not liking the bitter cold, which has yet to abate. spring seems a long way off some days, you ever notice that?

****

and since it's my blog and my bday, i'll leave you with this video, one of my favorites ever by one of my favorite artists:



****

The world was on fire
No one could save me but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you

What a wicked game you play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
v And I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
And I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]

{World was on fire
No one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you

Nobody loves no one
