The worst thing about television: I can’t pause it when people are yelling at the bus stop outside my window.
I’m sure they’re saying lovely, fascinating, drunk things! But….TV!!! Dilemma!

I was confused because William Shatner is in this episode of The Twilight Zone, but it is clearly not “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet.”
It’s this episode, which I don’t think I’ve seen before. EEEK!
OMG William Shatner.

I watched the last five minutes of an episode of the Twilight Zone.
This is my review:
That dead guy was a whiny bastard.
That would totally require a spoiler alert if that show were less than 50 years old, or if I had any idea what episode it was.

I forget about the Twilight Zone marathon every damn year.
Beavis and Butthead is on, too.
Actually, I often forget that TV is something constantly running, and not something I just look up on the internet or download.

Someone’s post just reminded me of another 2011 accomplishment: I lost a lot of cell phones.
I have managed to hold on to the 8-year-old Blackberry a friend gave me. My obnoxious yuppie friend makes fun of me every time he sees me use it.
Last year I said I wished I had spent less time “avoiding people.”
I avoided even more people in 2011.
I took an unexpected nap and I’m still tired. I could go to bed for the night, really.
I thought about doing a retrospective post, but my main accomplishments were taking 10.5 months to get two weeks of health insurance and taking a writing class.
I also had a surprise party for my birthday, which was lovely.
I lost one friend to unexplained jerkiness, and a few more to me being a...

in honor of 2011 i have wasted the final day of 2011 just like how i wasted every other day in 2011
I think that there needs to be a brand of fancy-ass cat food that has a picture on the bag of me and Fuzzybutt snuggling.
It should be for elderly cats and offer supreme hairball control.

I resolve to never feed this crap to my cat.

Why “Yes, But” Is the Wrong Response to Misogyny →
I should have given my landlord my updated income information yesterday so I can get charged the appropriate amount of rent. Then, for some reason, I couldn’t find it. I had it in a good place, but then I had to put it in my bag to show my case manager, and it got lost in the shuffle.
I’m not worried because
it’s replaceable.
I didn’t look very hard.
I also tend to...

What is Pinterest and why am I on it? It seems like Tumblr for mainstream people.
I’m on Medicare in two days.
Too many FEELINGS.
Also, I’m getting sick again — not in an “I have a cold” way, but in a more chronic way. I suppose I’ll be sent around to more and more doctors who acknowledge that something is wrong but don’t know what it is. Yippie!

Romantic Comedies?

More like Romantic Vomidies, amiright?
Truer words have never been written.
I'm ruined.
I just saw a picture of mint-chocolate fudge and my first thought was “What nasty bodily fluid is in this?”
The answer is none. It was just fudge.

see? crazy right?
I am going to (figuratively) put my fingers in my ears and sing “LA LA LA LA LA” and just tell myself it’s fake. Which I’m sure it is because ew and why?
Dammit, I thought I was safe.
I saw the cookie picture. Seriously. Do NOT ruin cookies for me.
Tonight I learned that people who follow me are more likely to care about cats and pie than an old-timey detective agency run by an old-timey mustachioed fellow. I’m not sure why that surprises me, but it kind of does.

ladywhalersofthemoon asked: Tag, you’re it! Here are the rules: Each tagged person must post ten things about themselves. You have to choose and tag ten people. Go to their blogs and tell them you tagged them.

Finally! I feel like I belong!

I guess I wasn’t too lazy to Google it. Gift certificates in WA can expire if they have been donated to a “charitable organization” or if they were part of a rewards program and nothing was actually paid for them. I won them, so that makes sense.

WORD. I had some stuff worked out by high school. Junior high was abysmal.
A friend of mine once said “I liked high school because the kids all figured out that they could make fun of me behind my back instead of to my face.”
Yes, this exactly. I got harassed regularly instead of frequently. I had...
Many of the gift certificates I won expire on 12/31/11, which is bullshit. I thought gift certificates in WA didn’t expire because of some law that passed (I had a customer service job once upon a time, and such a law passed and it was A Thing). I’m too lazy to Google it or argue, so today I’m gonna get a loaf of bread, some pie, and and a sandwich.
There’s a gift...
Nice thing about high school:
It wasn’t junior high.

Finally watching Inception. I have had this DVD for months. I don’t know why I still have DVDs on my Netflix plan, but I do. Anyway, every time I try to watch it, I get bored or fall asleep. I did my best to power through it and it’s almost over. I took a lot of breaks.
I’m so damn bored you guys. So damn bored.
I know I’m weird about movies, but I expected to at least...

I just realized that I have needed new shoes since September 2010, and I never got around to buying any. More than a year has passed since they first got giant holes in them!
I’m still walking around in these, and it’s a pain in the ass when I step in puddles. I also have a pair of rain boots from Target, but they aren’t really suitable for everyday wear.

I continued to play Words With Friends with the guy I knew in high school who made a snide comment about me beating him. I continued partly out of boredom, but mostly out of spite.
I beat him a few more times.
He did NOT like getting his ass handed to him. Like, at all.
During our last game, he quit in the middle of things and did not request a rematch. Poor sucker. He never beat me once.

I just intentionally unfollowed nine people.
Then I accidentally unfollowed someone else.
Chances are that no one reading this is any of those people.
I’m still following too many people.

I don’t know if you need to keep them for legal reasons or something, but a few years ago I deleted all the emails I would re-read obsessively and get depressed over. It was one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself.

Because I hate myself, apparently, I just read the last proper e-mail exchange I ever had with Jerkface. He e-mailed me in 2005 as he always does, and I responded rather angrily. I’d been ignoring him for a while at that point and I had told him to leave me alone, but he refused to respect my wishes. We went back and forth a few times, and there are so many fucked up things in that exchange....
