6 year old HP laptop went south fast as of the last few days, started only intermittently turning on at all.

Decided it was a sign to get a new one. So I'm typing this from my brand new HP Pavilion. It's pretty slick!

Wow. It's rare that someone buys two HP laptops in a row. Must've had better experiences than most, QT. XD

Yeah. I mean they have their issues...but most laptops do. I was happy enough with the previous one (6 years of solid working), so I opted for another.

Original Veruca Salt got back together (Nina and Louise!) and have a new song out.

I asked for and recieved a new chair at work, (the one I'd been using since I started here 3 years ago was old, broken and horrible for my back)...so now maybe my TFL won't scream at me all the time.

The knowledge that, one day, my enemies will be nothing more than dust.

Take that inconsiderate lady that let her kid cough all over the other children at the park! Dust. DUST!

Also, The Goldbergs. Great show. Feels like home.

I'm getting married in 8 days. Bachelorparty tonight as it turns out. Not entirely sure whether I should be elated or terrified.

Mostly I'm just happy all the planning is done and that Sarah has yet to recognise her mistake.

I have dozens set out so that I can pick the appropriate style for every occasion. Ceremony scarf, dinner scarf, waltz scarf, wedding night scarf. They're all there.

I actually do have a white silk scarf for the coat and tails I'm wearing for the church ceremony. It is the result of a compromise after Sarah denied my wish for a top hat.

And you are still marrying her? What kind of unnatural hold does this witch(too far? Hope not!) have over you?

She's got a tight psycological grip on me, there's no denying it. That's why (well, one reason) Vengy and I got so well along. We both know what it's like wearing the figurative skirt in our respective relationships.

How intriguing. Something something mothers relationship something something Freud?

Friend is about to read the end of Deadhouse Gates for the first time. It's crazy just how much waiting for his reaction excites me. It's the closest I can get to reliving the experience for the first time, and damn, it's good.

uhm, that should be 'stuff.' My stiff is never nihilistic.
