Jan. 13th, 2006 06:43 pmWoah. I actually just e-mailed The Boy to see if he'd like to get lunch when I'm in town this weekend. Totally innocuous, but hugely difficult for some reason... He might not get the e-mail in time, but that's almost easier, because then it's not because of *me*, it's because of my *timing*. Which everyone already knows sucks, anyway...
I do need to remember to get the oil changed on Sputnik before I drive down to NoHo. Stop shaking your head at me, Doug, I'd consider doing it myself but the street is dangerous and the parking area for our apartment is a lake. I'm not crawling around in that. So there. I'm also oddly low on wiper fluid- I put a gallon in just two months ago, and didn't use the car at all for two weeks of that! There must be a slow leak; there aren't puddles under the car, but I don't use the washer fluid that much, I swear. Poor car.
I'm looking forward to getting gas in MA, though, let me tell you. Even on the Masspike, prices are 10 cents a gallon lower than the lowest price in Albany. The 7-11 in NoHo'll be closer to 25 cents a gallon less.
Carolyn seemed a little down on Wednesday about uncertainty about the next year (I know exactly how she feels), so I made her a mix cd. It's called LoveCarolyn (the cover resembles the cover to Love Actually): boys&girls. It seems weird, but it made sense for some reason, I swear. I'd been wanting to make her a mix with Regina Spektor on it anyway, since I knew Carolyn would like her, and just got the new Sirsy CD's so I had a cut of "Waiting for Rain." The songs alternate between one being sung by a girl and the next being sung by a boy, and I wanted something kinda poppy but also soothing. The track list ( follows )
If anyone wants a copy, let me know.
My RT reaction is RT-ing away happily in its thermocycler, and will be for the next hour or so, so I'm going to go home and come back before heading out for the 9:35 showing of Bareback Mountain. I mean Brokeback. Yeah. Carolyn and I are going to grab a beer with Crystal at 8ish, then Carolyn and I will continue on to the Spectrum, where we will meet Mya. Perfectly orchestrated, I tells ya.
Oh, and Mya's had the brilliant realization that our next door neighbors (tell the nice kids about their NYE party, Mya) are just like Ebenezer and Snooch from Two Lumps. The analogy is perfect like woah.
the hedge abides.
