Me: I’m a lil sleepy
Him: Sleepy?! How are you sleepy? You slept from 8 to 8 yesterday! Maybe more!
Me: I’m a good sleeper. Why the surprise?
Him: You’re asking me why the surprise?!
Day’s nice and sunny, pretty much done with work, and I don’t know why, but I’ve a case of the blahs — don’t know how to describe it — don’t feel like doing anything, didn’t get much accomplished, &c&c. I don’t even feel like eating anything right now, if you can believe it! Come to think of it, I probably need a nap — if it’s not eating, then sleeping’ll cure whatever ails! And come to think of it, Yut and I have been staying up late playing Dr. Mario lately cos I have to play against him until I beat him once, then we can move on to the cooperative stuff. :)
I woke up at 11am on Sunday, and went downstairs to get a drink. My mom’s response to my mumbled “G’morning Ma” was, “Eh, what are you doing up so early?!”
Yesterday I was in Maryland and it was 90 degrees and humid and I wore a t-shirt and sweated rivulets. Today I’m in the Bay Area and it’s more like 60 something and I’m wearing a coat. If I come down with something, I guess I’ll know why.
This morning I woke up and I just kinda felt like azuki ice cream, so I had a big ol’ bowl for breakfast. Then for lunch I had a large smoothie. I have no idea why, but that’s what I felt like. It’s not even particularly hot today; it’s actually a really nice sunny day, perfect weather.
There’s a new Staples in town, and I guess they sent out little presents like, “come check us out” sorta thing, including a $25 coupon. Well this weekend was basically the last weekend to use it, so yesterday we spent over an hour walking up and down the aisle of Staples trying to figure out what to buy. Usually I’m good at buying things, especially tech gadgets, I love ‘em! But I dunno, we weren’t really looking for anything and it’s not like $25 is that significant when it comes to gadgety things. In the end, we bought some super glue (you never know when that stuff’ll come in handy), 2 pairs of scissors (we’ve been using the poor kitchen shears for everything), a 6 pack of pens (on sale for 50¢), and… toilet paper (you can’t really have too much toilet paper:p). Also it was Marcal toilet paper, which is one of the brands of 100% recycled paper toilet papers that I hadn’t tried yet. Still, at some point before we realized that Staples actually sells recycled fiber toilet paper, we were standing in front of the bucket of Red Vines trying to decide, no actually discussing, if we could finish them fast enough or if we even wanted to, or if we’d get sick of them, and after they hardened who would eat them. It was totally ridiculous — who knew that randomly trying to spend $25 could be so hard. In the end we paid about $8 something for all that junx, not bad, I guess, and now we really know our local Staples backwards and forwards. Erm, yay.
Okay, I believe in voting, but dooooooood!!! I’m voting again — this time in the California state primary election, as in the primaries for US Representatives, the State Senators, etcetc, state stuff. Why couldn’t they have bundled these votes in with the national primary election is beyond me, seems like a waste of time and money. They’re expecting really low turnout, but it would’ve been super high if they’d done this in February. It’s ridiculous! Gah! Erm, ok, end rant. :D
Wait! One more thing! Another annoying thing is that researching this stuff is hard! I’ve been checking the Sierra Club and California League of Conservation Voters and etcetc for endorsements, but they don’t mention everything that’s on the ballot, especially the people I haven’t heard of, of course. I have resorted to checking Facebook, for goodness’ sakes. Geez. Okay now I’m done, for real this time.
