• 23:34 At a bar playing pool with @familyjules727 and friends for our second anniversary. This is the drunkest I've been all year. #fb #

• 16:11 Your new watch broke? #

• 07:33 Spending pretty much all day looking at possible wedding venues. I'll be honest: I'd rather spend that time under an electric blanket. #fb #
• 12:37 Kelly, if you see this, call mom so she'll stop worrying. #Fb #

• 06:48 Yesterday a certain troublesome kitten got out the door without me realizing it. She spent the rainy night on our porch. She's okay now. #fb #

• 14:49 Awesome. On the way to the doctor, my mysterious spider bite started oozing a mysterious beige substance. #

• 22:01 Went to the local showing of Wicked with the family and Julie. I need to read that book. #fb #

• 19:45 At an anniversary party, where my personal agenda is to disprove Julie's theory that I'm a lightweight. #Fb #
• 21:06 Please disregard any slander being spread by @familyjules727 - one can lose coordination without necessarily being drunk. #Fb #

• 20:58 Two hours and change until Season 4 Part 1 Episode 1 of THE VENTURE BROS. appears on television. We might try to tape it. I'm psyched! #FB #

• 15:50 It's a shame I felt too yucky to enjoy missing work. #Fb #

• 16:37 This cough is tenacious. I must be coming down with something. Awesome. #Fb #

• 07:01 I'd really enjoy a week off from work. Hope you're having fun in Michigan, Julie. #
• 20:20 Julie got her wedding dress. This is happening! #Fb #

• 19:05 Shrödinger's Rapist: tinyurl.com/ya2fd8v #
• 19:06 (Honestly, I just like the idea that the hypothetical rapist in this scenario is simultaneously living and dead.) #

• 07:14 Julie had me scared I'd left my car door open yesterday. No: the one day this week I left it unlocked, and today my CDs are gone. Heh. #fb #

• 21:09 Kind of terrified that Julie doesn't just identify with the cat lady on "I'm Obsessed With My Pets", she's SPEECHLESS WITH GLEE. #FB #

• 15:45 The kitten's my shadow today. Skulking under the covers in bed this morning; sleeping at my feet in the office; pawing into my shower. #FB #

• 18:32 I find Subway's 5 dollar footlong commercials insulting and infuriating. #Fb #

• 17:11 Don't let the adds fool you. Insuring an automobile is a joyless slog. #Fb #

• 18:50 The Kansas State Fair has some of the most alarming depictions of milk cows I've seen. #Fb #

• 06:49 How does this cat ALWAYS knock my contact lens cap into the trash so that I can't find it? I turn away for TWO SECONDS and it's gone. #fb #

• 15:47 Whether this job is 'kind of cool' or 'kind of stupid' is entirely a question of which computer systems aren't working. #Fb #

• 22:36 Dan Brown's 20 worst sentences: tinyurl.com/r6tye2 #
• 23:20 The fibula is totally my theme bone. #FB #

• 11:03 First day of actual calls. Only one coworker has quit so far! #Fb #
• 17:07 @daphaknee That's a relief! I met Julie over pho. #

• 22:15 Discussing wedding plans, and my feelings on the subject have been summarized by a cartoon cat: tinyurl.com/p4f4x7 #

• 23:53 I'm engaged to @familyjules727 now. #
• 00:01 Yeah, this is pretty awesome. It's taking a bit to really sink in! Glad everything came together more or less like I'd planned. #

• 18:02 I'll be amazed if less than half my training class fails their job evaluation tomorrow. #fb #

• 22:07 Police tape at the dillons gas station at harry & webb. That's unusual. #Fb #

• 22:10 @familyjules727 Yes, you are! But I have enough addictions of my own, so I'm not about to complain. LOOOOO~OOOOVE YOOOOOOU. #

• 22:28 This is the most climactic game of Twilight Imperium i've played. I nearly won! #Fb #

• 14:50 Sailing with dad. @familyjules727 is supposed to be here by now, but her phone must be off. #
• 23:17 Julie just drooled on me. Niiiiiice. #fb #

• 02:56 Just convinced myself that my alarm was about to go off, so I need to get up for work. That's true, but not for another three hours. #fb #

• 00:53 I feel bad about wasting Julie's evening. #

• 23:40 @dailymtg You decided! is not updating correctly today. Also, date's been listed as "14th" for a week, now. #

• 17:19 First day of training finished. Four weeks to go. #FB #

Julie said she only wanted three things for her birthday: a lap-desk, a carrier for her iPod she could wear while exercising, and a kitty. She got the first of these around two weeks ago--she found a stray kitten at Jiffy Lube and brought her home with her. This little cat is quite the troublemaker; anything she encounters is either going to be climbed on, climbed under, attacked, or eaten. We named her Koopa after one of the drivers in Mario Kart Wii. Anyway, I also gave Julie the lap-desk she'd wanted shortly afterward, and last night at my parents' house she got the iPod carrier... as well as the Pets expansion for the Sims, since we've been playing it more lately.

I've been unemployed for about two weeks. I can't say it came as a surprise, since Convergys was basically paying me to sit and read every day; the client finally decided there was no reason to maintain that much personnel on a project that's not getting any calls. They said they might be able to hire me back halfway through August, but I'd really like for one of these banks to schedule an interview with me before that's necessary.

What else has been going on... we went sailing a couple times, although Julie has yet to be able to go with us this summer. Went to the usual Fourth of July party at the house of some friends of my parents. Julie and I kind of marveled at some kids claiming to be "pyromaniacs". Over at the Worst Forums Ever, fried_octopus has gotten everybody on a "Let's Play" kick, and he just finished Let's Play Exquisite Knorpse, which I was involved in making. (It's probably not worth watching if you aren't familiar with Exquisite Knorpse or Knytt Stories, though. Or unless you just really enjoy schadenfreude.)

• 00:15 @lzbtheiae No, I'M a prettier princess. #

• 12:00 @familyjules727 You are going to stop having a pissy day and start having a good one. Right now! #
• 13:04 And i love you! #

• 21:39 Final Friday: we've been abducted by an incompetent trolley operator and our evening is being wasted. So awesome! #

• 14:28 The weather is unpleasantly hot and my new schedule actually makes me get up early. What a great month. #fb #
