I am really starting to get annoyed with wordpress reverting to the default theme. Stop doing that! stop!

nothing much else to say.

Umm…the other day, after shopping with Ry, loaded with bags and giant balloons, I realized I locked my keys in the car. That was a real adventure in hell, let me tell you.

A tip: When slamming the car door on your boyfriend’s mother’s fingers, after she’s driven 35 minutes to come help you retrieve the car keys you’ve foolishly locked in the car, don’t laugh. Really. Don’t laugh, no matter how funny it may be.

After a email discussion with my friend, I decided to check out the sex offender registry.

This was a mistake, a bad idea. I feel sick to my stomach. And I actually started crying.

Every single person the list for my area was a man, of course. Fucking men and their fucking dicks.

One of the guys, near our new place, had convictions as recent as April of this year. How is it possible he’s not in jail still? Two months jail time for indecent assault and battery on a child under 14 years of age and three counts of rape of a child with force? He gets convicted in April and by June he’s back at home?

This is so fucked up, I don’t even know what to think.

I just want to throw up.

I found out, from a little blurb on a friend’s site, that a movie based on the book Atlas Shrugged is maybe in production, for 2008, with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie “in talks” to play John Galt and Dagny Taggart, respectively.

Absolutely in no way can we allow this. Please, hollywood. Please. First off, not everything under the sun needs to be a movie. This book does not need to be made into a film, it does not, no no no. 2nd, if you insist, as I know you will, then don’t make it into a laughable circus show. I am begging you.

How odd that those two would even be interested in playing those two characters. Actually…not so odd, when you really think about it.

Sandals are practically the only shoe I ever wear, all year long, even in winter. I don’t care if it looks stupid to wear socks with sandals, I do it anyway. Yes, in winter, I’m a sock & sandal wearing dork.

My last pair was a superstar of the sandal world. They weren’t birkenstocks, surprisingly (I’m not allowed to buy birks anymore, because apparently they make me look too lesbian). They were Merrell, red ones, and I loved them so much. I still love them. After three years, I continue to wear them, constantly. But three years is a long time for a pair of shoes, especially as much as I’ve worn them, and they are getting kinda ratty.

Time for a new pair! Woo! I love getting new sandals. I was going to get another pair of Merrells, same style that I have now, but then I spotted these at REI and I had to have them. The website for Keen is top-notch annoying, but I don’t plan on wearing the site, so it’s okay I guess.

I got them earlier this week. Last night we noticed that the right shoe and the left shoe, while both green, were totally different shades. All week long I was wearing two different colored shoes, and hadn’t even realized it. Now I look at them and I think “how did I miss that?” it’s so obvious. I called the store and they told me to bring them in and we’ll get it straightened out.

It’s strange, they only have one shade of green in that style, so I don’t know why one is more minty and the other more olive, but it looks stupid. I hope they don’t say it’s just the way the shoe is made and tell me to live with it.

I don’t know why I think anyone is interested in my new sandals, I’m just bored at work. Oh!! The best thing about these shoes? No, the two best things about these shoes? a) they are totally waterproof–not only can I get them wet, I can actually throw them in the washing machine to get clean. And b) the strap is this sort of bungee cord deal and it’s fricking awesome.

Also, I’ve been having a good time lately with puns and play on words, be patient as I work through it.
