Vortexia's Secret

grrr. i was all set to get stuff done today and it had to start raining like crazy. my motivation isn't great enough to want to go get groceries and carry them to the car and all that jazz in pouring rain. so i will stay inside and lie low until it all dies down. which means i will read for a few hours and get nothing done. i could work on a paper, but i don't want the computer to die from a power outage and i lose a) my computer and/or b) my paper. so i better play it safe. unless the laptop has word on it still. they wiped everything out on it, so i don't really know, but i could check. ok, enough rambling.

yesterday i watched many movies on TV. it was most enjoyable, and i think i even did some work. mopped the kitchen and did dishes and laundry. not too productive, but nothing to beat myself up about either. i also watched the highly addictive desperate housewives. i may have to stay home on sundays to watch it regularly, or add it to my tape (unless somebody wants to mail me a tivo with lifetime subscription. last time i checked it was "just" $500.) i have noticed something odd. for sunday being the big church day and day to prepare before you have to go back to the evil drudgery of the 9-5 for another week, there are a surprising number of shows revolving around sex. it's like the sunday night sex-a-thon on TV. very surprising to me since i can remember a time when they weren't allowed to have that kind of theme on sunday shows. i think i remember a controversy about that show with corky and it had the word "life" in the title (anyone? anyone? bueller?)... anyway, whatever that show was, i seem to remember there being a controversy when corky's sister ended up having sex. it was on sundays and sex shouldn't exist on sundays. or some crap like that. anyway... just thought i'd share. and now the rain has eased up. so maybe i'll wait it out a little bit to see if it truly will stop (or just sprinkle) for the afternoon and then head out. and you probably don't care about that. this is just random crap if you haven't picked up on that yet. ok, well i'm off. lata!

UPDATE: i just googled corky and got the name of the tv show. life goes on. now you have it in case you ever cared.
