Uh, okay. Slight over-exaggeration, but it is MORE complete now that I got my tea perculator! Actually, it arrived on friday LAST week, and they called me to say that, but I figured it was my mother that had left a message on my answering service. Oooh well. It's here now, installed, and run through once to clean it, and then again, making a pot of Earl Grey to use as a baseline.
*sips* ...Hmmm... Not bad. Needs 3 spoons of leaves though, or maybe my Earl Grey's losing the edge (it's only about 1 cm left at the bottom of the tin). Tastes nice though!
It looks good too, I'll snap a pic of it with my cell cam when I get it back. It is in for service to get a firmware update (the resident software programs running the phone's functions), because it was behaving kinda quirky at times. It has shut down on its own, not powering off fully because the clock was still running, but forcing me despite that to entering the PIN code anyway when I touch a button to use it.
OH. Seems my new teamaker doesn't keep the tea hot after it's done brewing. Bummer! I either need to make smaller pots more often, or get myself a thermos. Well, actually, I have one, but it's HUGE... I'd need a smaller one.
HAAA HAAA!
Carson's taking this week's fasion victim to H&M! That's a Swedish chain of stores!!! ;-D
Anyway... The firmware is improved in the version my phone did NOT have. The camera makes smaller pics (file size wise), and I can use buttons 1-4 to activate/disaable different functions, and the joystick adjusts contrast and such. It also runs java code faster. That's cool! Can't wait to try these things out... (Yeah, I am a total geekazoid, sorry.)
I messed around on the trams today because I had to go from A to B after passing C trying to get two parcels mailed (one containing seven Babylon 5 DVDs that were messed up in the mail from Ireland), and getting to B to pick up my percolator involved me passing R and V because despite living in this city for ten years, I mis-looked (is that a word?) on the tram chart and had to take a different line than the one I intended.
Oh well, no harm done, and the place where I switched lines let me look at a dude in his late teens or maybe early 20s who wore reeeeally low-slung dark blue baggy jeans. He was sitting down at the tram stop, and the station is designed with glass waiting booths back-to-back, tram booths facing each other (for travel in either direction), and bus stop booths behind the tram booths. Dude sat in the tram booth leaning forwards, showing a GENEROUS amount of backside covered by a white T-shirt nestling down his butt. I was hoping to see some skin, but his T-shirt was very long and covered things completely, but that's OK too, I could still see the shape of things underneath anyway.
On the bus back home we were packed like sardines and I struck gold. A pretty hot guy got on just before me, and as we were squeezed tight, I had a hand on his butt. *blush* Well, he was wearing a long jacket, so it was on top of the jacket where his butt was, but still... It felt awesome, OMG. I'm not the LEAST sorry I felt him up, hehehe! 
Day's been pretty OK overall I have to say. I luuuuv my new tea-maker. I can't wait to try it again. It's got these really nice soft-touch buttons to turn power on and off, and it is this kinda indigo-blue color too, and the pot is round and looks cool.
And, I had a sexy wet dream around 4AM too. Was earthshakingly good! Wowie, hehehe! So yeah, day WAS pretty good overall I have to say... 
Nice tight hugs for everyone:

yay for the perculator, and the guy-scoping, AND the dream! ehehehe! sounds like you've had a good day, indeed.
i will see your good day and add to it that my QUEER AS FOLK SEASON TWO got here today, shoved in between the screen and storm door. hurray! now i have something to occupy 3 of my 5 vacation days next week (watching 9 am to 4pm)!!!
and it also means no hassle with amazon marketplace, though i probably will never buy "used" (Though this is still in shrink wrap and all) merchandise from their marketplace ever again.
well, i'm thread invading now, hahaha! i'm glad you're doing good!

Oh... ummm... a thermos for your teapot. [e blushes and tries to think of something else} ;-D ;-D ;-D Good to hear about THAT, umm teapot. The groping and the dream too.
In class last night the super-cutie Brandon was accusing someone of being mean to him (just kidding around). Anyway, I told him that he was such a little puppydog that no one could possibly be mean to him. He turned so red he was almost purple and everybody laughed. After that, the next couple of times he looked at me, he just turned red and smiled. It was so cute. ::-) ::-) ::-)

It's good to be happy & feel good about things together, isn't it? I haven't used my thermos for ten friggin years or more, it still looks brand new though. I'll get it out in just a lil while and dust it off and rinse it out, then fire up the percolator with a pot of...umm, I don't know! I have so many varieties now that taste great...
Rooibos, probably. Wanna try that too in my new tea maker.
Ohh agh btw, Blackstar mailed me yesterday btw, they sent off a replacement set of season 3 discs yesterday even before I sent the old ones back, and they even offered to reimburse me for my expense. I'll forgive them for this little incident because of the nice way they handled the damage control effort. 
Take care!

I used to get some great deals at H & M !! Though I always thought of it as the European K-Mart. (A store to get cheap stuff for those of you in the majority (non-US)).
And .... nothing better in the hand than a nice butt (to heck with the birds)
God , I am silly today.

That's a mortal insult, hehe!
H&M isn't exactly upscale, sure, but it's not cheap-ass either. It's very trendy stuff actually.
(Says L, trying to pretend he knows a darn about fashion! *giggles*)
I agree on the hand thingy though! What is it about butts that makes them so nice to hold?

I tried it yesterday evening, and it keeps stuff warm almost forever. Very convenient! It's of the pump variety, so it's easy to get stuff out; I don't have to unscrew the top and let heat out along with my tea. It's Japanese, and of very high quality, and black in color with a modern, neutral design. There's this little stylised elephant silk-screened onto the outside along with the manufacturer's name down at the bottom of the bottle... 
The thermos holds more than the pot, but that's alright. It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the thermos bottle much, if any really. I made a pot of my 'thunder' blend earlier this afternoon, and it tasted great. 
Guess I won't have to buy a new one after all... Would be a bit silly I guess! This one was a christmas present along with the coffee maker that died, but it hasn't been used more than a few times many many years ago, so it's still like in a brand-new state. Guess it'll see some use from now on!

Thanks, e! Yeah, I better use my big THERMOS to keep the tea hot, because it IS HOT when it is done! ;-D OMG, I think it get even hotter than my coffee maker made it. It's instant third degree burns if it was to touch any part of me, hehee!
