Consonants and vowels all together, equally

So in case you missed it:



I have a feeling this won't be taken down by Fox, since Ryan's already linked to it on his site.

Speaking of Ryan, I thought I'd like that his show is on Z100, but I don't know, actually. I don't remember him playing this much music and talking this little on his show in LA, and half the songs they play are weirdly old—I mean, "This Love"? Really? Come on, Clear Channel! I actually want to hear reasonably new pop music from Z100, not stuff that's already played out on HotAC. Meanwhile, I don't think we're getting Ryan's random conversations with Ellen, which is where the good stuff usually is. Alas, for I am too lazy to stream, and too often not home in the mornings. But I wanted to hear him say something about what happened last night, and he has not and now I'm irritated that I listened Pink and Flo Rida for nothing.

I'd say this was a GIP except there's a whole post here. However, regard the icon!

So on Tuesday I worked and then CC and I had mediocre sushi (good fish, too much rice, bit bland) and good bubble tea and then watched two eps of Veronica Mars. ( This is a little spoilery. )

Wednesday morning I took Veda to the vet and surprise, she was good as gold! She didn't want to go into her carrier, but at the vet she stood nicely on the table and let him look at her, and weigh her, and let the assistant hold her while the vet gave her some shots, and then put her back in her carrier. I didn't even recognize my own cat she was so good! Then I worked and saw my friend S for dinner, who is going to have another baby in November, somewhat unexpectedly. S: "If you have unprotected sex, you will get pregnant, even if you're nursing!" I think it also surprised her since it took them a while to get pregnant the first time, so I don't think she was thinking of herself as particularly fertile. Her son is crawling around like a demon and starting to remember me from my semimonthly visits which is exciting.

Thursday consisted of 16 hours of sucking, so let's not discuss that. However, at 5pm, about two hours after she'd given birth, Heidi pings me asking me to upload a picture to LJ for her as it's tough to do remotely. Then she says:
H: Wow, I'm hungry.
C: Heidi, YOU JUST HAD A BABY.
H: Well, yeah.

Yesterday was much better—I worked and then went to the bookstore to get Fruits Basket 8 and the market for a few things that I couldn't get via Fresh Direct. After dinner I ate a bowl of left over sponge cake, two containers of Cozy Shack chocolate pudding, a half pint of raspberries, and whipped cream. I'm sure you can tell many things from that.

I saw that copperbadge was doing that old unpopular opinions meme, so I had to dig up my stab at it from last November. I have to say, I pretty much am still in on all of it. I'm also happy to say that re #8, I've come a long way, baby.

Today has been an overcast day with a lot of indirect sunlight, and Jonathan Schwartz was playing a lot of late 50s-early 60s jazz on his show today and I just had this prickly feeling about winter coming and summer being over and a vision of my future that I hope is coming.
