Leigh's #1 Rule in Life:
Always check for toilet paper before doing your business.

Anyone have any words of wisdom they'd like to share? I need some new things to tape around my monitor at work. =)

I just had the nummiest lunch in a long time. My mom went to Cecil's Deli in St. Paul yesterday and bought me some things. You should really never get bagels or pastrami anywhere but a kosher deli. YUM!!!! My tummy is happy.

I should post a photo of my new cross-stitch project here tonight. I was looking at it last night and was a little amazed at how far I've gotten in 9 days, especially since I didn't work on it two of those days. It's going well & I really like it.

I seem to have gained a few new lj friends lately. Some I know in real life (chateaudyquem and lovika27), some are friends of friends (bdkellmer and rhyotgrrl), one is someone I know from being out and about on the road (vanillachick78) and one is a frisky ME (garretmacymce). Anyhow, welcome everyone! I make no guarantees about things being entertaining around here, but I do try to post on a mostly regular basis.

This weekend was pretty quiet. Went out to dinner & then saw Brokeback Mountain for the fifth time on Fri night. It was a lovely time! That might be enough times in the theater for me now though, especially since I can watch it at home now. I worked on Sat and Sun night I had dinner with my folks and my sister. I got a few things done around the house, but mostly sat and enjoyed the quiet. This was my first free weekend in like 2 months, so it was nice to do nothing.

Tonight - CJ screencaps.

It never fails: the longer you spend on a project, the more likely it is that it will never see the light of day.

*is bitter today*

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm. I seem to think that "the longer you spend on something, the more fucked up it will get" is more for me. But yours is good too.

Sorry your group project is not going well though.

The trick is to put it down at the end of a part

Otherwise, you'll have to count the stitches again.

Imagine doing this in short sessions:
Motivated Medic Uses Cross-Stitch as Relaxation (http://newsblaze.com/story/20060130133421nnnn.nb/newsblaze/TOPSTORY/Top-Story.html)

I figured. It's fine. ;)

What about, "The less you want to get up, the further away the remote"? Or "You hit the most red lights when you really have to pee"?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeeeeah. Those are both good!

[amazonqueenkate.livejournal.com]

And both SO TRUE. (I hate red lights. In this town, you either hit ALL of them, or NONE of them. The former? SUCKS.)

Frisky? I haven't been called that in a while, I'll have to see what I can do about living up to it. *waggles eyebrow*

Words of wisdom...hmmm. Nigel used to have on on his desk.
'Perfect Love and Perfect Trust through superior fire power.'

A favorite of mine came from a friend in college:
'Some days you eat the bear, some days the bear eats you. But it is strictly up to the bear.'

Thanks, darlin! I love both of those!

*pinches cheek*

*grins and rubs cheek*

You know I usually charge at least a kiss for words of wisdom and I did give you two quotes.

*suggestive wink*

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

But you deal out wisdom all the time. Just how many women are you macking on, you big flirt?

[garretmacycme.livejournal.com]

Only you, lady of my heart.

Besides Jordan, Lily and Renee would slap me if I flirted like this with them.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmmm. I'm not sure if I entirely believe that.

Although I do believe that the women around the morgue would slap you.

[garretmacycme.livejournal.com]

No it's true. Why are there other ladies you'd rather I flirt with?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Oh no. Of course, I want to be the one and only. ;)

[garretmacycme.livejournal.com]

*mimes heart shot*

I'm all yours, my love.

Always check for toilet paper before doing your business.
O.O I'm reminded of that one time where I was going to the bathroom and while unwinding the toilet paper there was this massive spider crawling on it.

Word of wisdom. Hrm. Don't speek to the Socialist lady downtown, on the corner. She'll talk to you for so long, you won't get to go get your lunch and have to go back to school hungry.

Uuugggh. I wish I could go see BBM again.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Well. At least there was toilet paper there, I guess.

I never really meant to see BBM this many times. It's just so touching and beautiful that I had to see it again. Then more friends wanted to see it, so I tagged along. And again. And again. =)

[static-rain.livejournal.com]

Lol. True. But yeah. Specially when your at a store or something, and there's nothing you can do.

Not that many people may age seem at all interested in seeing it. And if they are, I don't know them. I've seen it twice and I'm grateful that I got to see it at least once. It'd be nice to see again though. Lol
