I Make Power

OMGJeremy: so where have you been?

Amanda: at the new house

OMGJeremy: how's that going?

Amanda: pretty ok
: except that a fucking mouse DIED OF STARVATION sometime last week
: we couldnt find the corpse
: but jesus god could we smell it

OMGJeremy: hahahahaha

Amanda: it actually made me want to die
: because the first night, when it was at its most horrid
: there was an awful storm
: and the electricity was out for over 2 hours
: so we had to have the windows shut AND since there werent any fans or AC on, it was as stuffy as fuck
: so i had to choose between the foul stench of death
: and a room full of hot ferrets and their terrible litter pans of horror
: i chose the stench of death
: and tears.

OMGJeremy: :/

Amanda: well, i didnt actually cry
: BUT I THOUGHT ABOUT IT


Haha. Yes, I decided to take the Easy Route with my blog entry this time around and just paste a story from earlier rather than write it all out again. It must be noted, however, that previously I had believed my Most Hated Odor to be the smell of putrid rotting flesh. It really does make me gag and feel bad when I am around it. But recently, we had to switch the ferrets over to a kind of food called Zupreem since we couldn't find their other food anywhere and we desperately needed to feed them and everything. And this new food... God almighty. They stink so badly. It brings to mind what I suspect fouled baby diapers might smell like, only that I have never actually smelled a human infant's waste. Suffice it to say that it is my new least-favorite smell, and I literally chose death over it. What awful times!

In other news, this iPod thing seems terribly strange. I have heard of complaints from people saying that we should only put up terribly obscure songs, in order to make certain that no one has ever heard of them before. But I prefer the idea of just slapping up songs that we generally enjoy, no matter how obscure. I don't think we'll put up very popular things anyway, since that's not how we seem to roll. And I know that I, myself, seem to have an eclectic taste in music. But I am also mostly oblivious, so I rarely know how popular a song is. You'll just have to take it! At least, you will as long as it remains up. And that remains to be seen.

In other other news, for some reason I wrote an email to Atom of Atom and His Package tonight. As far as I know, I was completely snubbed by Scott "Too Fancy for Amanda" Ian, so maybe I'll have better luck with Atom. As is the custom, I babbled and sounded somewhat frightening. But I guarantee to you all that it was a FRIENDLY kind of frightening. As usual. I will keep you all updated as to how nice of a guy he is.

Not Quite Certain

Well, it appears that I might be moving today. Yes, that's right, moving in with my boyfriend to a little podunk town here in Ohio. But I am not sure if I am today or not. I got the call like an hour ago to tell me to start packing, that we have quite a deal right in the center of this town. And really, $250/mo is really very nice. Especially for a 4 bedroom house. (Naturally, this is a house deal set up by caring relatives - so don't be too shocked or jealous).

So yeah, like an hour ago, the boyfriend calls and is like "Want to move into this place?" And I am all "sure!" And then he goes "But we won't have a refrigerator or stove yet." And I am like "I see.." But I am not too discouraged because I can exist on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and fruit, I guess. And then I ask "Well when will we get Internet?" And his answer mostly seemed to involve something about bills, and the fact that we should get appliances first and how much money he currently has. I think I was only silent. Probably because my mind was racing.

So, either I am moving in today for real and this will be my last blog entry until only god knows when. Well, until we get Internet, but I'm not sure if that would be in one week or in a month or.. I can't even consider anything later than that.

OR - I will move in about half of my stuff today, stay there until Tuesday or so, when he leaves for work which takes a few days, and I will come back here, where I am now, where my computer is. And where my computer shall remain until it is time to get the Internet connection.

I really have no idea what will happen. So, just in case, I say GOODBYE to all of you, and I miss you all already. And if I am back again on Tuesday, then that's even nicer. Because who likes to say goodbyes? Even if they are short-term goodbyes until another day soon.

Be seeing you.

Hummus Is Really Yummy

I am very hungry and wish I had food to eat. That is, food besides leftover White Castles, the scourge of my tummy.

Yesterday, actually, I ate White Castles over the course of an entire day. A few at a time. For those of you who don't have them, I think they can also be called Crystal Burgers, or something. For those of you who don't even have those, just imagine tiny little hamburgers cooked with lots of onions and lots of.. I don't even know what it is. It is grey sludge though. And I believe that is what destroys us all.

The worst part is how I, and everyone I know, KNOWS that eating them will cause us to be ill and yet we eat them anyway. And everytime, we go "Ugh... Never again will I eat these beef bombs." But then, weeks or months pass, and the memories have faded. AND WE EAT AGAIN.

It's so stupid. But so strangely tasty. It is a curse, too.

Oh, fuck it. I'll jut eat them anyway. There are only a couple left and they are so small and cute. I only have myself to blame. Although I can probably blame the voodoo powers that are cooked directly into each White Castle hamburger.

That's probably what the grey sludge is... Voodoo.
