Not the Academy Awards February 27, 2005 ~ 11:09 pm
Posted by Julie in : Daily Grind , trackbackNot even the WE Bathroom Break Show. Because I didn’t watch either. That’s right, people, gasp. Point. Shudder. I didn’t see any movies that were up for awards, I didn’t feel the need to watch movies I hadn’t seen compete for awards. You know what I watched tonight? Pocahontas. And I still know all the words. Bet you don’t know all the words to “Just Around the Riverbend,” do you?
Know what else I did today? I went and saw The Gates again because Jordana’s mom was in town for the day and wanted to see them. And just for Sloth, I made a point out of referring to Carol (Jordana’s mom) as “yer maaaaahm” to Jordana. And then we went to a flea market and I got funky yarn. And then I went to Circuit City and bought my new flat panel monitor. So now my old, bulky monitor is sitting outside. I feel bad for it. I put a sign on it that says “Free to good home” so that maybe someone will take it. It’s a decent monitor, just too bulky for me now. Am I the only one who feels bad about abandoning inanimate objects like that? I thought so.
I also felt bad this afternoon because I bought shearling gloves. I had no clue what a shearling was, but the gloves were the only pair that have kept my hands warm this year, so I bought them. And then I found out that shearling is a lamb. A little lamb died to keep my hands warm. I still feel kind of bad about that. I told Rick how bad I felt, and he said “Well, maybe the lamb died to be lambchops and the gloves were just a bonus?” That would make me feel a little better. A little less like Satan. This is how I look as Satan, by the way:
A handknit Satan, bathed in the light of the old monitor that is sitting outside. Yep, just checked, it’s still there.
Just call me Satan.
