My Benji is gone. He has left me without a bedwarmer until Sunday night. Who is going to sit around and listen to me babble endlessly? Finally talked to Christian for a moment today. I call and leave messages. Sometimes I don’t leave messages. Doesn’t matter, because she has caller-id. She knows I have called. She never calls back. When she is upset over something, I am...

This is disturbing me. Lately, I don’t feel that I have had anything to surf the web for. I read everyone’s web logs, check my stock price, and I’m done. There has to be something else, but I can’t think of it.

For the sake of family and friends, I braved Wal-Mart the day after Thanksgiving. Not feeling that I had suffered enough, I went to the mall on Saturday. I now feel the suffering. In our house, I do all the shopping and wrapping of gifts, and Ben earns the money for them. He does also tell me that I am awesome. I think it’s just to make sure I won’t stick him with any shopping. I...

Thanksgiving Day. I baked for several hours last night to get ready. For some reason, I have not been having much luck with pies lately. Last year I made a pumpkin pie in such a hurry that I forgot to add sugar. Just in case you are wondering, it doesn’t look any different. There was no way of knowing until you took a bite. Pumpkin pie without sugar is pretty disgusting. I have never...

It’s the most amazing thing. Here I didn’t pay bills, and always felt as if we didn’t have any money, which didn’t make sense. I just couldn’t figure out where it went. So, for the month of November so far, I’ve been paying bills, and have money coming out the wazoo. Terribly odd how it works out.

Well, I had considered putting up the Christmas lights today, as the weather is so nice. I have serious issues with people who put up their decoration too early. It just seemed silly to worry about that when the weather is supposed to start getting wet and cold tomorrow. Ben might as well be on the roof when it is warm and dry. Unfortunately, Ben woke up sick today. I’ve been getting...

ok. Today I received my first issue of Martha Stewart Living. I am at risk of becoming dangerous. I’m getting all sorts of rediculous ideas for decorating for Christmas. Gift ideas, stocking ideas, jingle bell wreaths and pulled taffy. I had originally planned a long post about Harry Potter, due to its release tomorrow (or tody, actually), but was distracted by the magazine’s...

Plants again! For Christmas this year, I am giving as many co-workers as I can handle their own spider plant in a pot painted by moi. As many as I can handle means as many pots as I can purchase (you would be amazed at how quickly Lowe’s and Home Depot clear them out) and as many spider plant runners I can beg off of Melf. So there I was, at Lowe’s, trying to purchase potting soil...

Ben and I went to Jess and Allen’s for dinner tonight. This was our first official invite since they moved into their apartment. Actually, Allen moved into their apartment right away. Jess waited until she could find a replacement home for her dog, Reggie. So Jess hasn’t lived there for quite a full week. It’s always nice to go to someone’s home and steal their plants....

Since I’ve been requested to, I will go ahead and post a log. That says ‘post a log’ for those of you perverts. I got my hair cut on Wednesday, as has probably been seen on Ben’s site. I think it looks pretty decent myself. Doesn’t everyone have one of those people who just pushes your buttons? I was fortunate enough to spend the evening with one of mine. Almost...

ok. I’m having serious issues here. my problem is, I didn’t really want a log where I just rehashed everything I did each day. I wanted to spout off on my rants. The problem is, people who read my log tend to be people I associate with, therefore, generally the people I would rant about. It’s not as if I would be personally attacking them, but there are many times when I...
