I forgot how much I love Cat Power. Go listen to some Cat Power RIGHT NOW.

[yes, that's right, I've decided to solve this "I never update" problem by treating this like Twitter/Facebook Status Update. Fun for you!!!]

completely off topic

Michelle Bachman is fucking insane. I know, duh, everyone knows that, but seriously--how did she get reelected? I mean, yeah, she represents the Stillwater area, so... that's probably all the answer you need, but still--she is just crazypants.

Related, barely--want to know a great way to get your coworkers to respect you? Refer to someone as "a liarface." Definitely proves that you are a very mature person with a totally impressive vocabulary.

where did the weekend go

How is it already Monday? I had an action-packed weekend, and really I would be fine with having another day to recover. Jason & Sarah were here Saturday for the Aeros-Admirals game. We walked around by the lake in the afternoon, got beers & food beforehand, and then got more beers after. We went to Klinger's, which was surprisingly pretty awesome. I woke up very... tired on Sunday and left almost immediately to go to the Brewers game with a shit ton of people. We tailgated before the game, watched the Brewers kick the Diamondbacks collective ass, and then went back to Jason's house and drank more. So, uh, when I say "action-packed," I guess I mean "beer-filled." Anyway. I had a pretty awesome time this weekend; sometimes it's nice to not spend all of my time alone.

I am exhausted

but I do not feel like I'm about to have a nervous breakdown. It's all about the small victories.

In other news you can use, Sarah Palin is a fucking moron. In case you hadn't heard. What else? Oh, apparently there are rumors Putin is going to marry a Russian rhythmic gymnast half his age, except he hasn't announced a separation (much less a divorce) from his current wife. Hilarious! Also, I bought a table and 4 matching chairs from Ikea for $129. Score! Nathan said he'd put them together for me today, after he goes grocery shopping, so I'll be eating dinner at a table tonight. Double score!

In conclusion, never ever rent a car from Budget car rental. Ever.
