Throw a blue ball

I'm having one of those days/nights where everything is really shitty, but for no apparent reason. Well, for a few reasons, actually, but smallish ones. Like feeling completely uninspired about tackling the rewrite for my Kimi piece, which is due tomorrow. And I can't even seem to write a straight sentence lately. I feel tired and stupid and bored. Not a lot of the whole productivity thing, happening. Not so much with the capable.

My weekend went like this: Walking Happy in the park leads to her not coming when I call her. Ordering Chinese food means feeling gross afterwards. Watching Carnivale with Marc leads to spending too much time inside and then running out of dvds. Watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer by myself = the same, but with lower self-esteem. Reading In Cold Blood means that I think too much about being shot in my bed. Playing Nintendogs leads to me irritating a virtual beagle puppy until it bites my virtual hand, and wasting time. Sleeping results in sleeping all morning and dreaming that I've fought with Marian over bootleg TMNT figurines. Calling people = me being an idiot. Talking = me being pissed off/being an idiot. Blogging = this.

I'm going to go out and get some Japanese food now, and then I'm going to work for a while. That's the plan.

POOR NERNIE! Life is tough, man. LET ME TELL YOU.

I will bring you Buffies tomorrow, as promised. And I will stay and chat if allowed, because that's the way I likes it.

What's a nernie?

Sachi - The official site is creepy. The game is fun. Unless you're feeling depressed. Then the game is depressing.

Mercedes - Marian is better at explaining this than I am, but a nernie is something or somebody that is beloved, or dear, or cute. I used to call Marian Marnie, which became Narnie, or Narns, and so she started calling me Nernie. But nernie can be applied to all things nernie, whereas Narnie is only Narns. Right?

And thanks for the add. My lj is empty and lonely. It do need friends.
