Hello livejournal!

Today after work I got all the way to the subway platform before realizing that I'd left my keys on my desk (this, after getting all the way to the subway entrance yesterday morning before realizing that I'd left my August metropass on the kitchen table). So I went back to work. And my keys weren't on my desk. Because they were in my bag after all. *is very, very pretty*

Two Things Completely Unrelated to the One Above

1) It is officially too hot for cheese. I thought it was too hot for cheese last week, when the time between taking it out of the fridge and eating it was enough to make it go all weepy and *ew*. But today I took the cheese out of the fridge and could feel it melting in my hand. I don't think so.

2) I am reading Special Topics in Calamity Physics. I have been reading Special Topics in Calamity Physics for eons now. I have taken it out of the library, renewed it, renewed it again, returned it to the library, waited for it to be my turn, taken it out of the library, renewed it, re...I think you get the picture. This last time I got clever and left my bookmark in when I returned it to the library, although I immediately realized that with 99 branches there was bound to be more than one copy, reducing my chances of getting the same copy to 1 in a frog's life. However! When I picked my hold up yesterday, it fell open...to my bookmark.

A Multiple-Choice Quiz

Two people are off sick (or "sick") on the same day. The initial reaction of every person who is told this news is to make a joke about how they are having an affair. This means:

a) They are having an affair.
b) They are the two last people you could ever imagine having an affair.
d) Everyone at work is obsessed with sex and really needs to get laid.
e) Oh my god grow up.

I was thinking a lot about Sabra's hair last night. I really want to run my hands through it. (Or bury my face in it- it looks like it would smell really good.)

[listersgirl]

It's seriously fantastic.

Re: Your co-workers. I choose a)They are having an affair because I am e)Oh my god grow up.

I really need to start watching So You Think You Can Dance.

[listersgirl]

(I wonder what happened to c?)

By that standard everyone at work is having an affair, because this happened every time. :D

I so wish my hair were actually curly enough to be like Sabra's hair. Sadly for me, my sister and my brother are the ones that got that hair.

[listersgirl]

I know! I love it so much!

[orionnebula.livejournal.com]

Hee, I was going to say c just to throw you off.

As for Special Topics, I read the whole thing eventually. And if you think it's weird now, trust me, it just gets weirder.

[listersgirl]

I'm quite enjoying it, whenever I read it, I'm just having a hard time actually sitting myself down to read! And it's too big to carry around.

That bookmark thing sounds like something that calamity physics should be able to explain.

As for the sick/affair-having/sick AND affair-having coworkers, I'd say it's more f) Everyone always goes for the obvious joke. :D

[listersgirl]

It's so true. And the obvious joke is always the same one around here. :D

I know you've decided against purchasing a home (condo? can't remember the name you called it) right now, but what about moving somewhere with air conditioning?!? Seriously. Cheese melting in your hand indoors is just wrong on so many levels.

I adore So You Think You Can Dance. I want to watch Mia Michels routines all day long.

[listersgirl]

I have a window AC box, but the kitchen is basically a closet, and out of the path of the AC, so gets very hot. I'm thinking about finding a place with AC, though. :)

I'm all about the Wade Robson. Love him! Love his routines!

[sh1mm3r.livejournal.com]

Hee. I love to go on YouTube and watch old Wade Robson shows - did you ever see that? I think it was on MTV, but it was freaking amazing.

I adore him but sometimes feel he does a lot of the same stuff, particularly in group numbers. I still go back and watch the zombie dance from last year. And this year's hummingbird dance was pretty amazing (that was him, wasn't it?)

I wish I were outside still and reading Hungry Planet, instead of sitting here commenting on LJ and pretending to look at a book on MS Project.

[listersgirl]

Mmm, that sounds nice. Oh Friday!

[globetrotter1.livejournal.com]

Dude! I hope Calamity Physics improves! It's on my to read list. In fact, if I could only finish something, anything, then I could start with that one. I read the first few paragraphs and promptly fell in love with it. I wonder how long that will last.

[listersgirl]

I'm liking it, I'm just apparently really slooooooow. :D

[starfishchick]

The bookmark thing? That's AMAZING karma. Hooray for you!

[listersgirl]

It was very random.

[canirl.livejournal.com]

Ok, your third wonderful thing is by far the most wonderful thing of all. It is the state I have been seeking for three weeks and I still haven't gotten there. Any tips?

[listersgirl]

You could try putting whatever it is you're going to be doing onto your to-do list ("read"), so then you can be completely satisfied when you're doing it. :D

Really, though, it's pretty rare for me to feel that way, so I have no help for you.
