let's go crazy

zaz! i think i'm not such a heartless bitch after all! this video actually made me laugh.

whew. that was a close one, i thought i was moving toward the dark side. i found it at boingboing and wasn't drawn to the post because of the baby in the video but because of the scientific nature of the question: what ten sounds are most likely to make you react? it made me wonder, "what WOULD make me react?" i do have reaction issues. like when i was mugged, i didnt really do anything except walk away. or when i saw this man in a restaurant collapse once, i just stared at him. or when i was in high school caught in a horrible snow storm in the middle of a parking lot (i know, i know, it sounds really uneventful, but the 4 people i was with were FREAKING OUT), i just kind of sat there. it worries me that my fight or flight reflexes are not really in tact. in all cases, i reacted hours later AFTER the chaos had subsided. it kind of makes me look like a freak, honestly. (the fact that i don't really react right away) hmmm...

anyway, quick post today because i have a lot of things to do. i'm in town (fargo, that is) until sunday. and between now and then i have to...
  • ... pick up grandma. spend time with her. take her shopping so i can find gifts for people and buy some homemade cards for friends. then take her home then...
  • ... head to homie's house to hang out with him and the soon-to-be finacee. err, she IS the finacee... soon-to-be-sister-in-law... maybe help them with their taxes (? they dont know this) or do wedding budgeting and...
  • ... watch big love from this season. thats all just tonight.
  • ... find a storage unit for all my belongingingings. speaking of which, do you think i should get a temperature-controlled storage unit? it seems important, but they dont seem to be climate controlled around here. and why is storage so much more expensive here than it was in boston? isn't that the opposite? people have SPACE here, they dont on the east coast. i'm confused.
  • ... then rent a uhaul and move my stuff BUT first...
  • ... i have to REPACK it all (its kind of everywhere)
  • ... then i would like to clean my parents basement and organize it
  • ... at some point, i need to find time to do my taxes since i'll be gone until april 16th...
  • ... i'm also hoping to hang out with my cousins, left-half, older k, and younger k.
  • ... at least another hang-out time with gma and maybe some cards...?
  • ... some more blogging...
  • ... oh yeah, that damn resume...
  • ... read a ton of articles...
  • ... send some cards so i dont have to bring them back to sacramento with me...
  • ... catch a flick at safari (the cheap theater for $1.5!)
  • ... something else...
  • ... again something else...
oh! and this is all the while going to my brothers game in minnesota/almost wisconsin (read: 6.5 hrs from here). that takes two days out of commission.

i bet bust a move on...
