Since work's been really slow, I've been spending more and more time poking around the Internet and spending literally hours on Flickr. So much so, that this weekend I had a dream that I was using Flickr and having a cup of coffee and conversation with Jason Kottke. I woke up not only feeling weird, but like a total geek. Aaron didn't know whether to laugh or drive me to therapy.
This weekend was quite eventful (or not). Friday night Aaron and I watched my favorite Sci-fi movie, Forbidden Planet. It's been my favorite since I was maybe 8 years old. It's wonderful and the effects are amazing for 1956. It features a super-young Leslie Nielsen and a babe-a-licious Anne Francis. Forbidden Planet was also the debut of Robby the Robot of Lost in Space fame.
Saturday, we went to Tysons Corner. Aaron and I both needed dress-clothes for work. Clothes are so expensive. But hey, if they want me to dress in business clothing everyday, so be it. Not that I like looking forty. (Disclaimer: There's nothing wrong with being forty, it's just that I'm 22 and wear suits to work almost everyday.) Saturday night we got burgers at Red Robin, I got a new 5.8ghz cordless phone that won't mess up my wireless internet at home, and watched the new SNL.
Sunday I went home to see my family. My cat, Whiskers is going back to the vet; he's lost another pound in the past week. In six weeks he's gone from weighing 14lbs to roughly 7. My parents got him tested and the vet said it was a thyroid problem, but even with the drugs for that and an appetite starter?initiator? he's still not eating. Oh, and 14lbs wasn't fat-- he's a bigger cat and was really muscly. Our other cat, Dizzy is wigging out a bit because she knows something's up with Whisker-doo.
