(no subject)

i finally got a raise. tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of my employment here. it's about time. about a dollar. not bad. plus i have more hours than usual, so my next check will be FAT. i can actually afford xmas presents this year! i know that is sad but this is seriously the first year i've ever been able to even think of affording presents.

i was supposed to go to g'boro this past weekend for a concert, and to celebrate with diane her completion of the praxis exam that morning, but she called and said she was tired and i was also tired and cranky because it happened to be the one day per month where i am bloated and nauseous and irritable. worked out well, i guess. we rescheduled for a couple weeks from now.

so instead we sat at home and ordered the UFC matt hughes/GSP fight on pay-per-view. unfortunately i only made it halfway through the sylvia/monson fight before i was falling asleep on ashley's shoulder. bah. apparently sylvia kept the belt, but fuckin' st. pierre beat the crap out of matt hughes! ashley woke me up to tell me. ha! hughes is a dick anyway. and so now GSP is the new title holder. i cannot fucking believe it. i keep waiting for them to show it on spike, like they usually do after the fact, but no dice so far.

jeebus, i can't believe i'm as into this shit as i am. normally i balk at any overt display of testosterone, but ashley's got me watching it and i'm ashamed to admit i'm hooked. not to mention i've watched enough that i can pretty much narrate what's going on.

heh. lame.
