I went to fax something and I was looking all over for a pen to fill out a cover sheet. I was starting to get annoyed, cause I'd been scrounging for a pen all over the fax room for 5 minutes, until I realized that I had one just behind my ear. I used to do that all the time when I was a grad student…

So wrong. So very, very wrong…

Also, since there seems to be a demand for cute kitty pictures, I give you Boris in all his splendor:

Swimeny Cheeps
*happy sigh*
Spent a lovely evening with the Katygirl. We cooked too much food (hmmm, bisto!) and ate ice-cream profiteroles slathered in melted chocolate. Katy got me a board game and the DVD of Mary Poppins (hence the Chim-Chim-Chimny theme of this post). I got her a silver bracelet† and two cute valentine cards I saw at Chapters. It was a lovely evening, and I get to end it sleeping next to the woman I love. There's nothing else to say, really.
† It's pissing me off to no extent that it's just a *bit* too small :( I'm going to pop by the shop tomorrow to see if they can add a link in it to make it less snug. She genuinely loves it, which is good, but I still feel bad that it's too small, poo. If they can't add a link, I'll take it to my silversmith to have it worked on.
I kill myself now
Ever since I read this article from XE, I can't get the friggin theme music from Super Mario Bros out out my head.
Valentine meme
If you woke up and I was in bed with you, what would be your first thought?

Are you talking to me maaaaaaan?

ASPEN, Colo. Feb 13, 2005 – Cheech and Chong may have joked about marijuana in their movies, but the comedians say they didn't touch the stuff when the cameras were rolling. “We tried one time and we wasted so much film,” said Tommy Chong, recalling a scene in “Up in Smoke.” “We were in the car waiting for the cue, you know. And the camera's rolling and we're sitting there, you know, and neither one of us heard the cue.”
Chong and former partner Cheech Marin appeared together for the first time in 20 years at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival. Chong said he isn't ashamed of introducing millions of Vietnam-era kids to marijuana. “When you think of how many kids died drinking alcohol, I feel I've saved millions of lives,” he said.
Marin said their humor was appreciated by an unexpected group: “Cops were our biggest fans. Because they dealt in what we were dealing with everyday, but in reality, they saw the essential humor and they laughed.” Marin and Chong, who recently completed a nine-month sentence for trying to sell marijuana pipes on the Internet, said they are writing two new films, “Grumpy Old Stoners” and “Lord of the Smoke.”
The scene where Tommy Chong smokes the cockroach that ate his pot still makes me giggle :)
Quiche, and other sundry details
Made quiche last night, and served it with meat pie and chicken pot pie. Hmmm, pie.
In other news, I'm jonesing for LJ comments. I miss the days of comment deluges that kept me entertained for hours. Have I become that bland and uninteresting?

My boobs are saggy. See? Even my boobs are depressed.
