Drug-fuzzed hazes are not fun. Especially when combined with an entire weekend of FamilyCrap (tm). Yay! I don't think I'll dwell on that.

On a positive note, we discovered that there's a marina, a gas station, and a restaurant four miles from our house. Not the swankiest of places, but it's better than a whole lot of nothing.

And, apparently, we're buying half a cow. To be more precise, we're paying half the costs to have a cow "processed", and we're going to be getting about half the meat from it. About 450-500 pounds worth. I think I need to buy a deep freezer...Also, I'm getting several bales of wool from Marshall (he's been throwing the stuff away), so I can start experimenting with spinning and dyeing. It's not alpaca wool, but it's something.

All the shows I like get cancelled - Carnivale has apparently been cancelled at the end of its second season. Carnivale was so good that I suppose it was inevitable - the battle between good and evil set against the backdrop of a depression-era carnival isn't exactly mainstream fare, I suppose. Bitter. Makes me feel better about not subscribing to HBO just to get the second season, though.

I thought I was feeling more coherent than this today. I guess it wore off.

Heh. So what's today's drug of choice? :D

Benadryl. I break down, go to the doctor for relief from allergy sypmtoms (a rare event that usually requires me to crawl off my deathbed), and he tells me to take Benadryl. Fucker. I hate doctors - all of them.

Heh. It's rather ironic that your comment icon was slightly blurred - feeling exceptionally fuzzy, I take it? ;)

Did Dead Like Me get cancelled too?
