I have been lazy. I think it has been about a month since I have posted. In all honesty, I couldn't think of anything that I particularly wanted to post about! So now you are forced to read a list of the general goings on:
- Clearly, I should explain the above photo first. It is snowing today and I caught a picture of Brian in the snow with a flabbergasted sort of look that I believe is fitting for how long it has been since I last posted.
- Christmas was great. I got lots of awesome presents including, but not limited to: books by Neil Gaiman, a book of pictures of LOL cats, Planet Earth Monopoly, chocolate, ear muffs, The Nine by Jeffery Toobin, a book by Sandra Day O'Connor, a new purse, orange and red dish set, Legos, a stainless steel waterbottle, a Mad Hatter pillbox, etc.
- My temporary position at Bloomberg came to an end and I am currently looking for a job again. Oddly enough, I'm not really upset about it. Brian actually says that I am happier than I have been in months. It is funny how relieving it is once the stress of just worrying about losing your job goes away.
- I have watched all of Season 1 of Star Trek, the original series. It was awesome. Brian and I now quote it at length and reference it every chance that we get. (Note: we still talk about The Wire every day. I still plead you to watch it if you have not.)
- Tropic Thunder was hilarious.
- Step Brothers was funnier than I expected.
- Eagle Eye was darned entertaining.
- We have been watching Mad Men Season 1 on DVD. I am not sure how I feel about it. I liked it at first but it is a little slow for my tastes (read: someone needs to be shot, poisoned, arrested, or die).
- Jay was kind enough to watch our cat while we went back to Minnesota for Christmas. Thanks to her the cat lived and did not destroy the apartment. We took her to Peter Luger's to thank her. I'll basically use any excuse to eat at Peter Luger's.
- While Jay was here she fell asleep on the couch and Livia tried to eat her hair! A part of me is glad that it is not just my hair that she eats (Sorry, Jay!). Another part of me was forced to go purchase a spray bottle to defend myself from her hair eating antics at 5am. I will let you know how that goes.
- Livia does not respond to the name Livia but she does respond to "Kitty." I think I call her "Kitty" too much. As of today, my pleas for her attention have turned into "Hey Kitty! Oops! I meant hey Livia!" I am not so good at training pets.
