The Spider Story: 2007

so i'm sitting in my living room today with scott and a few of friends, and rich ACTUALLY stops in (*gasp*). while he's there i notice an itty bitty spider hanging from the ceiling and make rich kill it. the end.

no wait, it's not the end. right after rich left, we spotted three more itty bitty hangy downy spideys. killed thems. started to get suspicious. stupidly looked up at the ceiling.

HOLY MOTHER CRAP FRICK FRICK FRICK

something or someone decided it would be a good idea to deposit their eggsack somewhere in my apartment, and it hatched a bajillion thousand million hundred itty bitty hangy downy spiders that were swarming all over the ceiling, coming out of corners and doorframes....uggggh.

i fortunately had to get to work immediately so i ran out the door (screaming), put scott in charge of talking to the office, and left my problems at home. scott said they didn't believe him when he said there were "spiders everywhere." they told him to get rid of cobwebs. he told them it wasn't like that. they still didn't believe him. he had to bring a maintenance guy down and drag him into my apartment and show him the nest of evil. then they believed him.

the exTerminator comes out on friday. until then, the apartment has been Raided and i'm keeping the can by my side...just in case.






has anyone else noticed that once a summer i have a spider fiasco? i don't like this life.

amendment

i'm just kidding, i love boys. the good ones, at least.

especially when a car full of them pulls up ready to destroy one bad one. even if they're five minutes too late.

he sure was lucky.





i love scott.

what?

i went mallwalking this morning for the first time in my life.

i also went book shopping.

and i bought an imogen heap cd. i already knew i was in love, but this solidifies it.

and i ate bourbon chicken for lunch.

and i bought rich and scotty little stuffed replicas of their mom's dog, star, in a candy store.


i want to go to build-a-bear.

i will probably finish kurt vonnegut's "galapagos" sometime early this morning or tomorrow afternoon. and i am liking it.


oh, and there's a playstation 3 in my house now. they threatened to sell the gamecube off to buy a couple of ps3 games but i raised cain about it, so it isnt happening. be content with your madden, fools.

someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide

>where were you while we were getting high?


no, i've never been high. i'm just listening to oasis. ah, the good ol' days.

scott likes his new job. he said it's "chill." i assume that's good. when you describe objects, situations, and people with temperatures it's usually a good thing. she's "hot." this is a "cool" band. yes, it works.

amy m. (PH manager who does schedule) had said a few months back that she would try and schedule us managers so that we'll each get a weekend off, rotated. well, everyone else got theirs (and then some for some people *cough*), and now being the lowest on the totem pole, i finally get mine! so i'm off this saturday and sunday (UNHEARD OF). rumor has it i'm traveling up to marion on saturday for a playdate with j.schall.

he loves it when you call him that.

in other news, it's almost christmas and i'm basically done with shopping save a few stocking tids and bits for scott and rich, and then a present for lou (scott's stepdad) and david (scott's lil bro). adn i think we still have rich to shop for, i'll have to check. but yeah. peeps should be happy. meres, your jizzunk i had shipped straight to ya's. or should i say, mzizzle evanspants. how you like that. twentytwoandahalf.

and then the twentieth of this month scott and i will have been together for a WHOLE FREAKING YEAR. i got him a good present, because he always gets me good stuff.




you know the rural legend (are there such things? there's urban legends, so i assume there's rural legends) that you can smell snow before it comes? it's so freaking true, and i can do it.

like, the other day, scott was all "it's going to snow. it's cold" and i was all "sniff. no it's not. i can't smell any snow." and it didn't snow. and then the next day as soon as i walked outside i said to him "OH it's going to snow now. i definately smell it today." and then that night it snowed.

i'm so amazing at stupid stuff, like smelling snow or making pizza. ah, life.

i'm going to go play the freaking sims now.

you know what

i check my own blog just in case it got updated and i didnt know it.

oddly enough, that hasn't happened yet.


the good news is the two dressers i bought online from walmart.com arrived. the mediocre news is that as soon as scotty or rich puts them together for me, i can finally finish unpacking, and that will be amazing. the bad news is that my cats left me for rich, because of his animal magnetism. *snicker* that was funny to me.

i'm liking jhumpa lahiri. yep yep yep.

i got kind of excited today because rich asked if i had any books he might like. inside, i jumped up and down and screamed "yay for literature!" but i think it might just be a false alarm, i have a feeling he's the harry-potter-and-davinci-code kind of reader. you know, the "saw the movie is the book any good?" kind of guy.

i love how one day i'm told "since we actually both have the night off for once, let's go out to dinner and then to a movie" and then when the night in question comes around, it usually ends up being "i'm going to run out for taco bell, what do you want, and then you're going to watch me play madden 07." some guys just know the way to a girl's heart. some guys just assume girls are boys with boobs.

My birthday is the 20th of this month. just so's you knows.
