Inconveniently Sane
So I have been pressed into updating, finally.
The light fixture at work smelled like burning and burning and made me feel ill. Then it sort of exploded. Sparks were involved.
I made mini chocolate cheesecake-ish things with raspberry sauce and chocolate. There was no recipe, as usual. I just sort of made it up as I went along. The second batch was prettier than the first. I am used to there being more people at home though and so there are too many.
Someone at school who I have been getting to know a bit turns out to be the friend of a former twin boyfriend. Of course that doesn't narrow it down very much, but it does mean that there is a good chance I have seen him before(as he has been in my house) and never realized it. Very odd, considering.
We've been reading Poe in English class so I was finally in the mood for a horror novel. There was a lonely, sort of florid-looking book laid next to the bookshelves at the thrift store- so I bought it. I like it when I don't have to choose a book and it just presents itself. Although I don't think I will be worshiping the genre anytime soon, it was much better than I thought it would be. It started off rather slowly but quickly became interesting and, dare I say, sort of compelling.
I love Poe. Really. Not that I'm asking Voltaire to step down, just shove over a bit. Poe has been around longer. Ever since fifth grade or so. There were some strange books in that Elementary school library of ours. The Poe marathon was much better than the Nancy Drew competition.
I've always been pretty partial to Serendipity. However I wouldn't be too disappointed if she were to lay off a bit. Any more coincidences or kismet and I think I might have a heart attack. It made taking a stress test to-day in psychology rather amusing.
Tomorrow I am planning on making some kind of cookie. I'm not sure what though. I just picked up various things from Walmart as I thought of them, and also some yeast so that I can make pizza or pretzels in the near future.
Crystal, I think I have stopped spazzing for now. Consider me on the rebound. That is, until I have to make toast in the morning. I am pretty sure that the toaster is in league with the telephone and they are out to get me.
Also I have no idea what or where I'm going to be for Halloween. Usually I have some vague idea at this point. This year I have nothing. I'd like to go out and do something but I haven't a clue what there is to do. I could probably go out with the people from work if I wanted, but we will see. Most of them do not seem to be in the proper spirit. I don't think that they are dressing up and that is the best part. Any ideas for a costume? Anyone? I have plenty of clothes and a void of ideas. Here's hoping that something comes up. -- G 'Bye, Sonya -- . ( 21.10.05 ) .
