I hate Xoom. It's been down forever and no one got to write me cool stuff on my new discussion board. Plus I had to thin out this site a bit...who knew I was over 2megs of stuff? There aren't THAT many pictures!!

WWWAAAAAHHHHH!!!

And I'm horny, dammit. It's not fair.

I went up to Oswego yesterday to hang with Jos, 'cause Brian went home and I was really bored. I met her in Syracuse at the Carosel Mall....which is a nice mall and has a 19 screen theater.

19 screens. Think about it. The popcorn was $5.99.

But I hung with Joslyn. It was really fun...but a little odd. You see, Joslyn has a 'single' now, as in her dorm room has no roomie. So she has lots of space. So I spent the night.

So did Kevin, her honeypie.

Let me tell you about Joslyn and Kevin. They're a cute couple. A really cute couple.

Really really cute couple.

I nearly retched.

I'm so envious.

But all three of us slept in the big king sized bed. Jos in the middle and Kevin and I on either side. I did my darnedest to sleep in the corner of the bed so I didn't bother them. And they slept all the way over on the other side.

It was still really bizarre. They both grind their teeth so I got a giggle. ;)

The next morning Jos and I got lunch at this groovy little place. And I got a loaf of bread to bring home with me. You may not think this very special...but it is. It was homemade oatmeal bread. Yummy.

And when I got home I made carrot soup.

This is more difficult than you would expect. I had to peel and chop carrots, but I didn't cut myself. I had to buy a medium sized turnip. I have never purchased a turnip before...how am I supposed to tell what a medium sized turnip is? At the turnip bin I would have classified at least six different size ranges. Many of them could have been medium. So I bought a big turnip and two little turnips.

One of them would serve my purpose. I was sure of it.

Do you know it is very difficult to peel a turnip? It is. It is very very difficult to peel a turnip.

I broke a wooden spatula-thingy crushing garlic with it. Snap...bu-bye spatula-thingy!!!

Line Break.

But I made GOOD carrot soup. It was all thick and tasty...and perfect for dipping the bread in. And I chatted with Ray whilst I ate it.

Then along came a spider, and sat down beside her...

Actually, it hung about three inches from my face. I emitted the copyrighted "Girlie Shriek", as Ray can confirm, and stared at it in panic.

"Just kill it!" says Ray.

I stuttered out the beginnings of the "Are you MAD!!!" speech and managed to squeek that I had lost my appetite. So I put all the carrot soup that was left in TupperWare (A Semel Requirement more vital than the secret handshake!!) and stuffed it in the fridge.

Damned bugs. I hate them. I really hate spiders. Yuck. And to have it dangling so close to my face...that's just wrong.

But I'm going now. I'm tired and Brian's gonna call me. ;)
