Important stuff, go to Million4Roe this weekend to see what you can do about the urgent abortion rights crisis. We're only one vote away from losing our rights. The Never Go Back fund is matching donations until 8 pm this Saturday night so please check it out right away.

Other stuff I need to get out of my head before I go to sleep...

We've been fighting fleas the last few weeks. I was so dense I didn't realize we had them till the cat started really itching, I thought I was getting hives. I still haven't seen one fo the little bastards yet, but I feel them and Phoebe and I have the scars to prove it. They've barely touched Sparky, as usual. We've gone through one round of spraying and Advantage, going to have to do another round this weekend I think, should have put that on my list below. My sinuses are just recovering from the last spraying, though.

Been watching lots of TV lately, which is weird for me. Somehow this week I've managed to sit through three complete episodes of Queer Eye (which I always seem to miss) and I finally caught the complete first episode of Mad Mad House tonight along with the second episode. I stumbled into the end of the first episode last week, and then the last 20 minutes, and then decided to actually look at the TV guide and made myself sit through two tonight. I'm so out of it, and haven't watched the Sci Fi Channel regularly since MST3K went off the air (too many commercials!!) so this show caught me by surprise. I thought it was going to be a spoof, and then I recognized Fiona Horne. I rarely watch reality TV, but a show with a Wiccan, Voudon and an actual blood drinking vampire seemed to at least merit a chance. Lots of born again Christians and Republicans being tortured, what's not to like?

Went to a post card show last weekend and blew all my money, but found some great stuff. We only get like two postcard shows a year here, so I figured it was worth the investment. I had meant to buy more for resale, but ended up getting like 3 for me, 1 to sell... The show has moved to a new location that's actually near my house, in the brand new Stafford Centre, and it was having it's grand opening the first night I went, which I didn't know. I drove up and there were spotlights outside and people in black tie and was very confused. After the ceremony some of the well-to-do wandered into the room where the show was, champagne in hand, which really freaked out the dealers. And of course, they didn't pay admission.

I lost a hubcap on the way home the first night, but found it intact on the grass the next day waiting for me, so I still have three at least. Lost the other one on the freeway sitting in rush hour traffic in Baton Rouge a year or so ago, usually I jump out and fetch them when they roll off but I didn't realize what that strange noise was until I got to New Orleans.

Didn't do last week's questions, too busy and too old, I don't remember my teacher's names, way too many years ago. But I'll give this week a shot.

1. What was the last song you heard? I was listening to Pretty Girls Make Graves latest CD The New Romance earlier when I turned my stereo off to watch Conan O'Brien earlier (a nightly ritual if it's not a rerun). I think I was up to "The Teeth Collector". I haven't been able to get that one out of my CD player since I bought it, very addictive.

2. What were the last two movies you saw? Haven't been to the movies in a few months, been meaning to see "Monster" and I have a video of "Thirteen" that's been staring at me for a month. I watched "Lost in Translation" on DVD (loved it, thought Bill Murray should have won). Before that I think the last movie I actually sat and watched all the way through is "Message From Space" because Sparky was showing it on 16mm at the house for some friends, trippy 70's Japanese sci-fi, very weird.

3. What were the last three things you purchased? Nothing interesting, I went to the grocery store this afternoon. Got more Starbucks Vanilla Latte, some Diet Mountain Dew for Sparky and an issue of Cooking Light, which I haven't bought in ages, but the dish on the cover is pasta with bacon & cheese, yummm...

4. What four things do you need to do this weekend? Move more of my eBay pictures to my new webhosting service, work on my main website, call my parents, get St. Patrick's Day cards and mail thm.

5. Who are the last five people you talked to? The hubbie, of course, my cat, my dad, the clerk at the grocery store, and Pam at the post office.
