are you sure it's not monday?

So my aunt has just been diagnosed with cancer and she's going to see a specialist at UAB tomorrow. Mom is not taking it well and it makes me upset when she's upset so we're all upset together.

also, about 3 hours ago I stubbed my little toe on a book truck and tore my toenail almost completely off. I'm going to the doctor in the morning. I'm scared it will get infected after so much air has roamed around under the nailbed. Sorry, that's gross I know. It hurt(s).

Last night I went over to KT's house, her sister came over also, and we watched El Orfanato. I cannot begin to explain how good this movie was. The perfect blend of scary and sophistication that I've come to associate with everything Guillermo del Toro touches. He was not the director on this one, but he helped. And you'll never BeLiEvE what went down at KT's house last night! It was a ressurection of this! Bring on the Wal-Mart vacuum cleaners! Neither KT nor her DH fell for it although the estimated "30 to 45 minutes" they claimed it would take to clean the rug drug on from 6:30 until after 9pm. We finally just went in the room where they were, turned off the lights, turned on El Orfanato, and pretended they didn't exist (despite the fact that she was still trying to start up a conversation with KT while we were watching the movie!).

A word of advice to budding D2D salesmen (or women) out there. Don't knock on my door with your schpiel in hand while gas is $4 a gallon. Pedal that on up the street.
