Goodbye, anonymity
I just found out that if you type "syntax stacia" into Google you get my Linked In page with my full name, my MySpace, and this blog. Oh sweet Frida. And to think my fake email contains these words. I need one of those "qtiekitteh23423423@aol.com" type ones now.
I bought a domain name, but I won't disclose what it is, because worse yet the whois has my home address.
I am a total germ sponge. I catch any crap that goes around the office or the bus and smear it all over Seattle.
Reasons I love Seattle:
A chunky dude in a green cape on the bus.
A soccer mom in an SUV blasting indie music or something really loud.
A lovely man with purple and pink hair and beard in a ravishing velvet dress that came into Sureshot.
The guy who gave me a purple scarf he had knitted himself on the bus one day.
Finding a pamphlet called "Chicken with penis"
A Buddhism pamphlet which talks about the joys of "urinating and defecating"
I bought a plastic bowl from Daiso for 1.50 which somehow fits PERFECTLY in my toilet. I filled it with cat litter in hopes the cats would start using it and then start using the toilet, but all they do is fling it around and get it in their water. Which is ok, since they never use it, but annoying. One of these days I am going to accidentally not take the bowl out in the middle of the night for a bathroom run, and probably just think "to hell with it" and dump it like normal cat litter, along with a slight annoyed feeling because I treat that stuff like gold. It's that expensive.
I'm going to Teavana in Bellevue next week with a co-worker. I don't really like Quan Yin teaouse - well, it's a good atmosphere and convienent, but the tea itself is quite boring. Good, but boring. Remedy Teas is also good (it has Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron!), as was Sureshot when they used to have the crazy herbal teas for when you got sick.
After talking to another Co-worker, I found out that the pad of the month club with trix rabbit menstraul pads is no longer on Etsy. Booo. But hand crafted nose studs are?? Sign me up,
The Season finale of L Word is this Sunday, but I think I'll have to make it to the one on Monday instead. I guess Dollhouse is going to be my new TV series now, although me and my friend Krista are still a little unsure about it given the whole kind of prositution vibe.
For this weekend, I have to allow adverbial predicates, but only negated ones, not denoms, I have to add a causitive semantic predication that WORKS, I have to fix my copula, and some other crazy stuff. I wish I could bring Mr. Derbyshire back from the dead. I have a bone to pick with him about verbal coordination. And ADJECTIVES, for Frida's sake.
I told people at work that I'd translate lessons for them into Sanskrit. I might have made a mistake on that one.
I posted a Craigslist ad this evening and got some totally redonk responses. I love how people respond when they are blatantly the opposite of what you said you were looking for in all respects. Some of them are so humorous that I'd love to post bits of them, just like the person who posted all the responses to that anonymous sex ad (I still don't morally think he was wrong at all, even though I believe he got in legal trouble), but I don't quite want to elaborate on what types of ads I'm placing. Er, that sounds ominous. Nothing bizarre, I assure you.
I will probably have a movie night with Vicki sometime soon. I'm kind of appauled that I've only shown one Seattle friend Conspirators of Pleasure.
I really have to start DOING more things in Seattle. Like going to shows, movies, etc. I have not been to one movie theatre since moving here. I do want to see Coraline.
Ruby programmers are really snotty.
It's a dangerous thing when Trader Joe's candy cane oreos are on sale for 99 cents! I bought one case, but I think I'll have eaten the whole box shortly. Even with all this junk food, I don't think I could top the following non-vegan foods.
I am noting an alarming tendency for wanting to introduce drama into my life. I will (hopefully) proceed with caution.
This post is a bit of an amalgamation abomination, but it will have to do. 6 days late on my montly post...
