No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

I just read a paperback romance in which the hero mocked the heroine for having a pink hammer. She pointed out that at least she had one, and knew how to use it. The fact that it was stylish just added to its pizzaz.

What book was it? For some reason, that's sounding vaguely familiar.

(And then I really am going to be asleep. Because my eyelids are getting veeeeeeeery heeeeeeeaaaaaavy...)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I note that if a girl has a pink hammer, it's unlikely the boys will borrow it, so bonus points.

Timelies! It's 6F here, but it's supposed to get up to 20F here today. t pauses for cheering

Ann, that's a ferret.

Timelies!

We're supposed to get snow in DC today -- up to 2".

On the bright side, office is closing at 3 because of the inauguration. And tomorrow is a holiday, for the same reason.

Yes, I'm at work today. (Long story short for those who remember my last post in Beep Me -- Hubs' tests were canceled, so I spent yesterday finishing catching up -- gotta get over the allergy to "Mark As Read.")

Lucky you. Hope Hubs is doing well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had an iTunes transition from Spandau Ballet's True to PM Dawn's "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss" that geeked me out so much I must have rewound three or four times.

Too. Much. Sneezing.

I am not at a meeting I am probably supposed to be at. Oops. But I will go to it later, I think. The stuff in the early part is mostly not useful to me. Stuff later is more important. I really hope they weren't expecting me to attend.

Trust my rage

In my class right now, we are talking about whether people who murder their spouses should then inherit from the spouse. We are using the word slayer for the person who does the killing. I miss Buffy.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I am very very very dumb. My boss needed something done yesterday, and I had the template at home. I'd been working on it there, so it's usually easier for me to print it up from home and bring it in. Normally not an issue, so I told him I'd bring it in this morning.

I forgot I got a new computer for Christmas. I'm going to have to make a whole new template and print everything out before work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Morning, y'all. So, Enrique Murciano is on Ellen today, and I am freaked out by now NOT Hot Danny Taylor he is. It's like he's acting or something.
