You Make Beautiful Things

I'm catching up on my favorite soap. The LJ comm hasn't been posting the scenes in the past two weeks and I was surprised to find out how much I've missed watching people say the same thing over and over again.

It's funny because it helps to put things into perspective TR-wise. It's OK if people say the same thing over and over again. It's terribly annoying when you are playing catch up and Sonny says "She almost died!" every time he's on screen. But of course that's what he would say. He's playing emotions to his man to act.

Still "She almost died!" makes me roll my eyes.

Why is it already 2 pm?

I've been reading Bridget Jones's Diary (I bought it at the used bookstore--I also like the movie better) and I find myself wanting to blog in the same style as her diary. Especially since I've read several chapters tonight. I have November and December left to go.

We went out to eat with the in-laws after work. We had Buddy's BBQ. It was alright when I ate it, but I have had terrible indigestion since then. I think it might have something to do with the horrible over-cooked nature of the chicken.

I mentioned my recent General Hospital fan realization moment. And my mother-in-law revealed she used to watch the show some 20 years ago when she was in nursing school. That and Days of Our Lives. So ... you wonder ... what is her favorite couple? Lucky and Liz, of course! I didn't mention Liz and Jason.

Oh bumped into childhood BFF with her husband and kids. They've moved back to town suddenly. Apparently the oldest, my godson, wanted to go back to public schooling (he was being home schooled). So he's at our middle (junior high) school and the baby who is four is going to a private (pre)school. And they are living next door to the home she grew up in. Her stepmother still lives in the childhood home.

Lastly, Chakotay thought our home needed some decorating. So he ripped up one of my pillows and made it snow in the front entryway. That was on Monday. Since then, he's found pillows I didn't know where hidden in places and ripped those up too. I think he's upset that I've been working on my days off. German Shepherds. -_-

( I shouldn't like this GH ship )

I tried to find my Diablo 2 game so I could play it. I have no idea where it is. The most annoying part is that I had it somewhere in the house where I walked past it everyday and now I have no idea where it is. I have a feeling it was in a stack of things that were my brother's and I gave them back to him at the beginning of the year. I think he threw them out too. I tried to find a used copy to buy, but people are still selling the game for $40. Uh, the game has been out for coming up on five years. I do not understand paying that much for it.

We didn't go to Boomsday. I just needed a stay at home and do nothing day. Tomorrow we're going to Matt's parents for a cookout. And here in a bit, I'm going to go set the DVR to record it.

I am so addicted to GH now. Jason and Spinelli crack me up. What's worse is Steve and Bradford are even more funny. The reason that is worse is that I'm not only learning other character's names, but I'm also learning the cast members' names. XD
