19: I have a habit of walking up to my friends, pressing their nose like a button, and saying “doot!” as a greeting. Or even randomly sometimes.. I think I doot Jeff’s nose at least 5 times a day.

As if the layout isn’t pink enough to begin with.. in October it will be completely pink. Why?

Well, October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I will be participating in Pink for October, so I’ll be pinkifying the site on October 1st.

And with a months notice, you should do it too

18: I have a love/hate relationship with eggs. Right now, I’ll only eat them hardboiled.

Hahaha. This one is for Rob.

Gangsta is dead. Grime is a bore. There’s a new beat on the street and it’s called Nerdcore. This geeky hip hop subgenre, also dubbed CS rap (that’s computer science, yo!), is finally booting up with the release of Rhyme Torrents, a compilation featuring the work of more than 50 men – and even a few ladies – who bust rhymes (and C++ code). The collection is free online, so none of the artists make bank. Like all true playa MCs, they did it for the street cred. Of course, in the CS rap arena that means a Wikipedia entry, and you can’t get one of those without an official album release. Here are a few of the overclocked hustlas you can find at nerdcorehiphop.org.

17: I love garlic. I use LOTS of it. I’m pretty sure I’m immune to vampires for the rest of my life.

Ack. So I forgot to pay my registration last month for my car. Got a letter today.

$40 registration fee
$8 liscence fee
$35 late fee.

Just found out the smog test that I have to have done is gonna be fifty some odd dollars. GAH.

I swear if the car doesn’t pass I’m getting rid of it.

16: I am a cereal maniac! I could eat the stuff for every meal hehe. Some favorites are Life, Captain Crunch (w/ crunch berries of course!), Lucky Charms, Honey Bunches of Oats, and Smacks.

Today’s breakfast was Raisin Bran Crunch (and 600mg of ibuprofen).

15: In high school, I was marching band, concert band, 2 auditioned choirs, and colorguard. I didn’t spend a whole lot of time in real classes hehe.

We went and played football today. Let the records show that I, Katie.. SUCK at football. I can’t run, I can barely catch, I definetly can’t throw.. though to my credit, I can cover pretty well (as long as they don’t get a running start hah)

No wait. I rock!

I ran a whole 12 yards with the ball, woot!! (then the fast guy came out of nowhere and next thing I know I’m flat on the floor). Then I missed the next ball by half an inch and jammed my finger. It still hurts.

Oh and I had a charlie horse at 6 in the morning. I had to bite my pillow to keep from screaming. So now my leg is crazy sore, rawr :(

That is all. I must now go shower and visit my Grandma. She’s in the hospital, so if you guys could keep her in your thoughts and/or prayers, it’d mean a lot to me

14: “The Usual” at the coffee shop by work is a medium hazelnut au lait, whole milk, 3 sugars, 1 equal.

Join me in Friday’s Feast!

Appetizer: If you could have a free subscription to any magazine, which one would you like to have?
Hmmm. Would you believe I’m so out of touch with “The Real World Out There” that I don’t even know any magazines? The only ones I know, I don’t like. I think a good photography or tech magazine would be nice.

Soup: Describe your living room (furnishings, colors, etc.).
My living room is under construction. It’s a huge mess. I have a white-ish couch, a bookcase full of doll parts, a TV sitting on a big plastic box, Jeff’s Love Sac, a sewing table, and Vinz has his playpen set up out there.

Salad: What does the shape of a circle make you think of?
Uhhhm. Nothing really. I see a circle and think “Oh, a circle”.

Main Course: Name 3 things in your life that you consider to be absolute necessities.
My computer - I’d have like, no friends without the internet haha.
My friends and family - fairly self explanitory.
Pepsi - I couldn’t function without it.

Dessert: What was the last really funny movie you watched?
Uuuuuhhhhhhhmmm… I don’t remember. I’ve been watching House MD and dramas on Netflix lately, haven’t seen any funny ones in a while.

It’s my momma’s birthday today We took her to Olive Garden.

For some reason, comments keep showing up on the moblog version of this entry. Weird.

13: My night job is selling high quality kitchen cutlery (of all things, look at me selling knives I wouldn’t even begin to know how to use haha).

11: My musical taste is very fickle. I adamantly dislike many things until they become familiar, then I’m like, OMG LOVE

<333 haha.

12: I’ve met my future Pretentious Art Snob self. It freaked me out. I was an an art exibit with a friend and I was looking around to see if I could spot the artist.. there was a lady there who looked scarily like me. Her hair was in the perfect little black bob that my hair was *supposed* to be and she had the weirdest/coolest dress on ever and red lipstick. I swear, if in 10 years I turn into a real artist, I’ll be her.

Last night was fun. Me and Jeff went and had dinner at Chadaka which is a Thai place I found online and it was yummy. We had coconut soup with chicken, and I had Drunken Noodles w/ beef and Jeff had Crab Noodles and mmmm it was good food. And I really wanted either a pomegranite martini or a mango one,  but then I decided I didn’t want to pay $9 for it so I had Coke instead.

Anyway after dinner we went to play pool. I suck at pool. Srsly. I won the game of 8 ball on a technicality (basically the only way I win haha, Jeff scratched while he was aiming for the 8). Then I won the first game of 9 ball fair and square, then proceeded to lose the next two, because I kept missing the really painfully EASY shots. Cest la vie. At least I managed to play 4 games. Usually I get frustrated after 2. Pool takes too much concentration.

Then we watched House, and I read a book, and tried to sleep. But I couldn’t. I’m still sick, it came back out of nowhere because I was feeling fine all day yesterday until about 1 in the morning. Now I’m really sleepy and my chest hurts. Blargh.

You know. I’m really not much better at bowling either.

10: I tend to fall victim to routine at restaraunts. The majority of the time, I will order the same thing, just because I *know* I like it. I’m picky enough about what I eat to know that if I order something new, there’s a good chance I won’t like it. Which is why I enjoy going with lots of people.. then I can take a bite of their food, with no risk to me not eating if I don’t like it.

9: I used to get really bad headaches, all the time. Not quite migraine status thank goodness, or I’d never have been able to funtion, but still pretty painful headaches. Now I don’t get them quite as often, but when I do, they last me a couple of days.

8: My first car was a 1987 Oldsmobile Delta. Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl, she was awesome. She was cream on the outside and dark red on the inside. I miss her lots.

Participate in Friday’s Feast!

Appetizer: What color is your car?
It’s supposed to be white with a tiny blue stripe.. right now it’s kind of grey.

Soup: If you could wake up tomorrow with full training in another occupation and a job in that field, what would it be?
I’d kind of like to work for the CIA. I don’t know what specifically though. Something computer-y.

Salad: How many times in your life have you had the flu (or something similar)?
Way too many. I’m chronically ill.

Main Course: What is something that has happened to you this week that you didn’t expect?
I got to stay home yesterday. Though it wasn’t that exciting because I was crazy sick and slept all day, except for when I was awake sweating because my fever was killing me. And Jeff made me drink water. I hate water. Today I don’t really feel better, but I am better medicated I suppose.

Dessert: How old were you when you had your first kiss?
15. Out in the rain. It was quite lovely actually. 

7: I’m allergic to cats. I happen to think it’s the stupidest thing EVER since I’ve had cats my whole life, but I guess the allergist knows what he’s talking about. Especially since I’ve been able to generally breathe better since I’ve stopped being around cats.

6: I have no tonsils, no adenoids, and no wisdom teeth. All I need is to have my appendix removed and I’ve had all the common surgeries.

Me ‘n Jeff went to the grocery store and I got the new Honey Bunches of Oats, with cinammon! I look forward to that for breakfast.

We also got steak, and steak sauce, and green beans, and garlic bread and we are making dinner, and blueberry-loaf (they were supposed to be muffins but I seem to not have a muffin pan) for dessert. Then we shall go bowling, then watch House MD.

There is no terror-puppy around tonight, he is at the vet recovering from being nuetered. I must call the office tomorrow for they have charged us $30 more than I was quoted when I called.

My phone is broken again and my throat still hurts.

Saturday I broke my cellphone. The display went all wonky on it. So yesterday I went to the dealer and he arranged for T-Mobile to send me a new phone under warranty. So all I have to do is send this one back. Well, of course, today the phone is working PERFECTLY. Both displays are just fine. Since Saturday the inner one would blink on and off and the outer one was either inverted (upside down and backwards) or black. Today I see my clock, I see my image, the logos are the right way.. so they’re gonna be like, “uh there’s nothing wrong with this phone besides the teethmarks on it”. Blah. I hear they can charge the cost of the phone if they think you’re trying to cheat the warranty :| DIE PHONE, PLEASE!!!

Oh yeah, lets test the blockquote CSS. La la la!

In other news I think my bathroom cleaner tried to kill me. I bought this tile spray stuff and omg. It felt like sandpaper in my lungs just being in the bathroom. I had to leave for an hour and couldn’t breathe right half of that time. This morning, my throat is KILLING me. I can’t swallow well and the soft squishy sinus-thing on the top of my mouth is crazy swollen. I’m thoroughly miserable and I want to go back home and sleep.

5: When I get an idea in my head, I don’t even stop to breathe until I’m done.
This is why I did THREE websites in 2 days hahaha.

This is something Jeff came up with the other day, and it was extremely yummy and extremely inexpensive.

I don’t know exactly what he did so I’ll just explain it as best I can, and you can figure it out :D

First, he took some chicken and cooked it with some oil. Then he took a package of chicken flavored Top Ramen and cooked the noodles for about a minute (the water was already boiling) just to let it absorb some water. Then he stir-fried (so he described it to me) the noodles with a little more oil with the chicken and mixed in about half the package of ramen flavoring.

And it was quite tasty. The texture of the noodles was really awesome because they were kind of hard without being like.. crispy. If that makes sense. So you guys will have to try it and let me know how it comes out :D
