1. I dropped my phone on my foot last night and now I’m limping around on a really sore toe. I plug in my phone to a power strip that’s next to the bed, and the phone generally sits somewhere on the the desk next to the bed. When I climb out of bed to say… go to the bathroom or shut the monitor off on the computer when it’s time to go to sleep, it’s a pretty common occurance for my foot to get caught on the cord and the phone to fall off, and last night it came crashing down on the toe next to my pinkie. It’s surprisingly not visibly bruised, but I can feel a little bump from the impact.
2. I’m pretty sure two people unfollowed me on Twitter for saying “Hmm… I wonder if that smell coming in the window is an actual skunk or just some really skunky weed. I’m leaning toward the latter…” last night. Or at least, their decision to unfollow me was time similarly to that tweet. I’m more surprised I actually noticed a loss of followers… but then again, I may be paying extra attention because I seem to be hovering fairly close to the 1000th follower mark. (I’m at 953 currently, provided no one else unfollows me.)
3. I’m actually reading The Hunger Games books. I generally one of those people who sticks their nose up at whatever the currently popular book series is, but my friend Anna had a copy lying around so I didn’t have to buy it to sate my random curiosity about what all the fuss was about… and I have to say… I actually was impressed, but then again… I’ve always had a weak spot for young adult fiction about dystopian societies. I’ve about 92 pages left on the first book, so I expect I’ll be done with it today or tomorrow.
4. Whenever I’m having a bad day and need a little pick me up, I end up watching this little outtake from Supernatural. Warning: Hot man alert.
EYE OF THE TIGER!
5. Whenever the cat starts meowing at me to be fed hours before it’s time for him to be fed, I hassle him for not being born with opposable thumbs. I’ll be all like, “Dude, if you had opposable thumbs, I wouldn’t have to be feeding you out of a can right now.” Also, apparently Firefox’s spell check doesn’t think opposable is a word and it TOTALLY IS.
DUDE. My cat totally has opposable thumbs. It’s awesome. Although when he gets into food, it’s usually into chips or cat treats, not the food he’s SUPPOSED to be eating.
And I love young adult fiction – it’s probably my favorite.
Thanks for linking up!!
Hope your toe feels better – I swear that sore toes are the worst.

Naughty kitty!
We had to install child safety locks on our cabinets because he figured out how to open them… and then would do something like claw up a bag of bread and eat it.
Question… why is there laughing in the background of that video? Was that part of the show or was that an outtake?

It’s an outtake. The laughing is coming from everyone who’s not in the shot.
I still haven’t read Hunger Games. I guess I am the only person on the planet.
Katrin recently posted..Sunday Confessions! Stupid pictures, scary movies and a song.
I’d recommend it, unless you don’t really like books with dark themes because it is pretty dark…
YES! i was cynical of the hunger games too – and then i picked it up. i finished book 1 and 2, i need to read book 3 soon!
molly recently posted..Fear not, for I am with you
I’m definitely going to have to run out and pick up 2 and 3 soon seeing as I’m nearly done with 1… I can’t bear to not know what happens next. LOL.
I JUST dropped my iPhone and while my foot is unscathed my beloved cell didn’t survive the fall, I’m beyond bummed… people looking at me would think I just lost my grandma or something… severe pouty face going on.
I totally boycott trendy books and televisions series… I seriously JUST started watching Season One of Dexter (7 years later) which means Mad Men won’t be on my radar for another decade
Loved your confessions – so witty you are
I your read number two confession and may have developed a slight girl crush on you. Then I rushed to follow you on Twitter.
If you like cats with opposable thumbs, you need to watch this advert that was on British tv a while back.

Oh man! I have dropped my phone on my foot several times – it hurts way more than you would think – doesn’t it? Hope you have a good week!

Hah! That clip from Supernatural makes my life better. I freaking LOVE that show and 100% agree – it’s a damn good cure for what ails you.
Kim recently posted..Movie Review: The Avengers
The Hunger Games books in my opinion were as follows:
First Book : Ok that was better then the movie, inner monologues help character development, but still pretty predictable
Second Book : Holy shit this book freaking rocks, swerves everytime it feels like it is going to get predictable
Third Book: This is ok, I know all these characters, why don’t I care. Oh well that happened, I wish this was book two again.
