Why The Annoying Quizno's Ad Makes for Great Deconstruction
They are not rats. They're called 'spongmonkeys'.
I am not making this up.

Interim
In the interim, if you need any Liz-news, visit the Walker's Blog.
I'm going through a rather introspective time in my life right now and need to spend the thoughts elsewhere.
*EDIT* I had a think and a look-see at the condition of my scalp, and shaving my head is not a healthful option. So I'm just going to volunteer for the event. When I really thought about it, I was going into it for impulsive and wrong reasons. . . it makes me queasy thinking about it. But, if you want more info for what the event is, click here.

There is nothing good and there is nothing bad, but thinking makes it so.

Daylight
I got home before it was dark today.
This was a FANTASTIC feeling. =)
Let's see if I can do that on Wednesday, shall we?

Mexico
Matt went to Mexico today. I got his text message while on the train home from my training walk. . . "Arriba!"
When he gets back to AZ, he's gonna call me. And I might actually be awake enough to talk! =)

I'm Hysterical. . . And I'm Wet. . . And I'm Still Hysterical. . .
No, I am NOT Leo Blum. I promise.
But today I was cold and wet because it's too warm for snow. . . brrr.
Fortunately, I remembered to bring my umbrella. =)
Of course, the mopey weather means that I'm more than a little jealous of Matt this weekend. He's in Arizona, where, although it's 60, it's warmer and drier. . . and the air is cleaner and clearer. And you can see the stars at night. And the sun feels warm.
He'll be relaxed and well-rested when he gets back, I'm sure of that. This was good for him. . . sun, clean air, fresh food, driving a Mustang (!). . . he feels free. =)
All the same, I can't wait to hug him when he gets back.

Swiped Fair and Square
I saw this on Fuzzy's blog and also on Moe's blog and felt that, since the cool kids were all doing it, I'd do it too:
create your own visited country map
or write about it on the open travel guide
Of course, I can also do the one I saw on Amy's blog:
Please keep in mind that I didn't count states I've driven through on my way to destinations such as VA or FL. . . though it would make my list longer and my explored states light up more red.
NOTES/CAVEATS:
(1) I have driven to business and personal meetings in VA (the company has an office in Charlottesville and I have friends in Manassas, not to mention the fact that my godmother lives in Fredericksburg) and, although I received a speeding ticket in MD, I don't feel I've ever really "visited" in the strictest sense of the word.
(2) I took the Greyhound to FL about 5 years ago, over Thanksgiving weekend, and it was a trip I don't wish on even my worst enemies or most psychotic ex-boyfriends, so let's leave it at that.
Moral of the story? I need to get out of NJ more.

STOP BITCHING
I think I've been doing a good job achieving my goal to stop bitching about every little thing. . . of course, I've left myself very little time and energy to do it, but I'm overall happier and healthier because of it.
My next thing to do is to find my "sexy" . . . I lost it and want it back, dammit!
Matt will be away this weekend, so it allows me some no-pressure time to do it.
NO MORE EXCUSES!!!! I will do this.
