Random thoughts not about cold weather:
~I put facebook in pirate. It's so much cooler now, it makes me giggle. I really only use facebook for like, farmville though. I almost never see a new message when it comes until I realize something's been sitting in my inbox for a week. Um, oops?
~No news yet on when Kylie's album is coming out. I'm pretty desperate for new Kylie. I'm still disappointed she didn't come to Florida (but then, she's such a non-entity here the US is lucky we got her at all. And she did release a digital download of the show, so.)
~Simon's leaving Idol to do an American X Factor. I have a feeling it'll fail pretty hard, but eh. I'll watch it.
~It's insane how realistic sims (in sims 2... sims 3 are just uncanny valley fat and weird and kind of look like there's something wrong with them... which is the uncanny valley principle, after all; we fear things that are almost human, and sims 3 definitely gives me the creeps) can be. I have a Britney Spears and a Drew Barrymore that are insanely like the real things, but somehow without that weird creepy factor that sims 3 has for me. Which is also why I'm glad they speak Simlish and not English, that would just be too weird.
~I want your love and I want your revenge, you and me could write a bad romance.
~Possible severe weather this weekend... and the temperature will be climbing back up by then, too. Florida is insane. But this winter is definitely going on record as one of our worst ever. They said in Tampa it had been below 60 for 9 consecutive days; the last record was 7 days in like the 50s. Insane.
~Facebook is strangely insistant that I talk to one person, but I have no idea why they picked her out of all of my friends. It's weird.

Mk... 25 degrees. Bleh. I miss not having to wear so many layers, and I miss slushies and ice cream :( I've had SUCH a slushie craving. I haven't had one since sometime in December.

I don't like changing seasons. My sleep cycle has been bizarre lately (is it possible to complain about getting too much sleep?) and I feel weird and anxious and constantly like I want to run from something, and I'm blaming the changing seasons because hell if I know that there's any other cause, besides my novel (SO CLOSE TO yet SO FAR AWAY FROM completion) giving me hell. I know I'm just avoiding it and if I sit down and put my brainz to it it won't be nearly as hard as I think it will be, but the more I don't write the less I want to, which is so very, very bad. But I'll work through it. I CAN DO THIS. With the help of caps, because I sure do loves me some capslock, apparently.

Went to the mall two days in a row, once with my mother and once with my boyfriend. The perfume counter ALMOST had a Kylie perfume, but found out that it's actually in the Countryside mall, which is so far away it's ridiculous. So that was a massive let-down, especially since I didn't even go to the mall looking for Kylie, then they said she was there and then she wasn't, which was more of a disappointment than it would have been if I had asked and they'd just said no.
I also met some of his nerdfriends and man, they are... not my kind of nerd. There's no nice way to say that. I'm not that kind of a gamer. I mean, I watch Star Trek (the original, I mean) and I have SNES and DOS emulators on my harddrive and know how to use them (speaking of dosbox, I keep playing SuperMunchers like I did in like, first grade, and I still suck at it, and it's soooooo 90s, it even references Michael and Janet Jackson and OJ Simpson from before it became taboo to talk about him), and I know what "abandonware" means, and I love LotR, and there's even an xbox (not mine) sitting in my house (that I don't know how to use and don't care about since it's my boyfriend's and not mine and he's just keeping it here so his brother doesn't touch it) and I still have my Pokemon cards, and I'm still not enough of a nerd.
They were nice, but it was definitely one of those "huge fake smile can we go now please please please" moments. We only stayed a few minutes because he needed some paints from the nerdstore. Which, thank God, because I would have died. My boyfriend freely admits that they're so stereotypical it hurts, which means he's not one of them because if he was I would cry so hard.

Huh. That's an odd note to end on, but I've suddenly run into a wall here. I could probably ramble some more (because I have so very many thoughts) but it's probably time to go.
