The germs in Spokane must be some strange variety I have never been around, because I'm sick AGAIN. I haven't been sick in a couple of years and I've been here a month and sick TWICE. WTF.

I have no more Downton Abbey to watch. *dramatically sighs*

At least The Almighty Johnsons second season starts Feb. 29! Hooray!

Really, that's about all I have to say. My life currently involves moving boxes and packing things and throwing things away.

And that's about it.

49 DAYS UNTIL MOVING DAY.

The Shabby Apple dress didn't fit me at all. It was the right size but it fit all weird and it looked like I was wearing a paper bag. So I sent it back and they are sending me a different dress. Yay for free exchanges.

But the shoes....I am in love with these shoes. They are cheap and cute and have heels and I could actually walk in them immediately without feeling like I needed to practice. Hooray! Hooray!

I miss 9, 10, Rose and Donna.

and also Captain Jack.

Never put your phone number on the letter/package you are shipping overnight mail. A crazy person who works at the post office just called me. Well, he may not have been crazy, he was probably perfectly nice, but I am horrible at understanding accents. I think this guy just arrived from India. The conversation went something like this:

ME: Hello?
GUY: asdflkjadsl;fja;sldjf;lsdjf
ME: What?
GUY: asdfklasjf;lajs;ldfkj;alsdkjf;aslf CCain.
ME: WHO?
GUY: Jen-asldfjasl;dkjfasd McCain.
ME: Yes. That is me. Where are you from?
GUY: asdlf;ajs;lfkja;sldkjf;alsdkjf;l
ME: What?
GUY: asdlfkja;lsdjkf;lasdjkf;asd;klas
ME: Where?
GUY: Vally Ranch asdlfkja;sldkjf;lasjfdas $18.00.
ME: $18.00? Oh, are you talking about my letter I am mailing to New York?
GUY: Yes. asdfjklasdjf;lsa envelope.
ME: What?
GUY: asdjfk;lasj;lfkjsl;adjf;lasdj;la
A Voice From Behind The Guy: Tell her we can just put it in a different envelope for her.
GUY: asdl;fja;lsdjkf;alsjd;lasjkd
ME: Yes, put it in the envelope for me.
GUY: asdkflajs;lfjkal;sdjf;lasjd;lj
ME; Put it in the envelope for me.

ME: Put it in the envelope for me. Thank you so much! Bye!

*facepalms*

(I know a few people on my flist are reading through a lot of Sherlock stuff right now so if you are one of those people and don't want to be spoiled for this very weird book stop reading now.)

SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE GIANT RAT OF SUMATRA or as I like to call it: LOL, WHAT???

So I am over half way finished with this book, but it's gotten so strange I have to review it now. lol. It started off normal and then turned into an episode of the X-files with Holmes believing in some crazy rat people. I'm not even kidding, there are these rats that are like the rats in the Secret of NIMH and they carry around little knifes and try to kill Watson. Except for some reason they are called monkey boys. I have no idea why they are called monkeys when they look like rats. Also they like to draw pictures of people that they want to kill. LOL! And then Watson is randomly having sex with people and talking about it. WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU DOING WATSON? WHAT? So obviously the characterizations of Watson and Sherlock are a little off. It's still entertaining though if a little bit goofy.

I only picked this one up at the library because the ones I wanted the library didn't have so now I'm just reading whatever Sherlock Holmes books I can find there.

CUPPY's new favorite thing is running through puddles of water after it rains.

She still loves her shelf.
