the weekend (my brain is tired)

ugh, google reader seems more like a chore than a hobby at times. i think i need to un-add egl again (116 new entries in that comm in 4 days. not funny). i have 205 new entries. i'm so glad i got to check my Lj on (whatever day it was - 24th oh wait that was sunday - not so bad then). i had a page of entries since then. not too bad at all, actually. twitter was another matter. i stopped reading after 3 pages of random replies.

ok. enough of complaining about getting home after a weekend. the weekend was really good. very domestic - relaxing at home, not really doing anything major, cooking together in the kitchen, but it was good. i got to play psychonauts. it's a very strange game, but fun. i didn't get very far with it (about half way through the second mind-area).

i went looking for boots in dublin and i found a pair with a nice shape (chunky: boots must be chunky) but they were black (boring) and they didn't come in my size (which was 3.5 for this particular company). so that was a little disappointing.

i've been awake since 6:30 this morning and up since 7:11. way too early, but i did it to myself. i wanted to see what lordkilljoy would be like getting up on a work morning. he made it sound like the biggest struggle ever, but i think most of that is just messing. once he made the decision to get up things seemed to go very well. unfortunately it takes 4 alarms to get him up, where it takes me half an alarm, so i was eight times awake and there was no way i was getting back to sleep. but that's ok. it's not like i had to do anything productive. now, if i'd had work, things would probably have been disastrous. i was totally falling asleep on the bus on the way down. i never fall asleep in transit (unless i've been awake for over 20 hours). so it will be bed early for me tonight.

tomorrow i think i'll go into town and look for boots in cork. hopefully i'll find something nice. meh - i'll see. i'm guessing the whole half-size feet thing is going to depress me, so i'll just psyche myself up for depression and rack my brain to figure out where boys' boots hang out.

i'm sure i'm forgetting something. oh well. there are infinite more entries, and i can make one if i feel the need to divest my brain of more stories and random bits of info.

ooh - i got to see a bit of flight of the conchords. it is very random, but funny. we also finished watching avatar. great series. i think i liked the fact that it ended, and didn't just turn into a sprawling 7 season epic where everything falls apart around season 4 and just drags after that. i like that they had a story to tell and they told it well.
