Me(to husband): I love you. On the way home, I was thinking about how sometimes when I want to watch an episode of Buffy, or Angel, or Firefly, I say a quote from it and you know what I'm talking about and you get it and put it on. And I just thought- it would take so much time to train someone new to do that.

Today I am thankful that I got to eat two homecooked meals without cooking anything.

So we went to register at Target. I found it more challenging than I thought. Sure, I want new towels. But what kind of towels? What colors? How many? Sure I'd like a new bedspread. What kind? Do I need to get matching sheets?

So, um, I got like four of each thing.

Also, it was very hard for me to ask for things I don't specifically need.

Kenny: Should we get serving bowls for like rolls or something?
Me: No, we've got bowls.
*starts to walk away*
Me: Wait, the bowls I'm speaking of are those multicolored plastic ones I bought at the dollar store a year ago. Yes, I suppose we can get bowls.

Kenny: Oh, let's get a new coffee pot.
*beep*
Kenny: A popcorn popper?
Me: Yes! Then we can decide what goes in the popcorn!
*beep*
Kenny: A deep fryer!
*beep*
Kenny: A griddle!
*beep*
Me: Can we register for more counter space?

Also, in the end, I was shopping with a boy, which doesn't work for me, who would normally spend an hour deciding just on the towel thing. Also, I put a toy for Mollycat on there. Kitty needs love too, you know.

Okay, I don't remember where I read it, but someone on my flist was talking about Wonderfalls, which I had never heard of. I read up on it a little and it looked cute, so I checked it out from the library.

And I've got to say, it's the very most adorable show in the universe. I'm in the middle of the second episode and I am completely in love with it. The girl, the talking animals (I want a smooshed face lion icon!), the bartender, everything.


This particular bit of dialogue made me laugh out loud:
(they're talking about 'destroying' this mean girl from high school, but she doesn't really want to)

Bartender Guy: I get it. Certain people see you in a certain way. And these people are from a particular time in your life so when you're around them, you feel compelled to act out psychodramas that have nothing to do with who you are now.

Girl: And the chicken in her hair told me to.


So to whoever talked about this, I thank you!

Molly, the most wonderful wonderous cat just spent five minutes looking at her reflection in the oven window. At one point, she raised her paw and touched her paw-reflection with it and then slowly took it away. Weren't there some old television shows like this?

M: "Well, I'm gonna let you so I can kill my child. Her Daddy went to sleep. So I'm gonna kill her. If you see me on the news, you'll know why. Talk to you later. Bye."


Earlier in the conversation:
A (in the background): Mommy Mommy Mommy Mommy Mommy Mommy.
M: What?!?
A: Can I watch a movie in bed?
M: Yes. And then I'm gonna change my name. To something you don't know.


Also heard during the phone call:

M: We do not do THAT to the cat!

M: Don't brush the cat with that brush, it's your broth- WHAT DID I JUST SAY?!!

M: Please stop banging the brush on the table. Stop banging the brush on the table. Stop. Banging. The. Brush. On. The. Table.

I have a new best friend.
