Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

'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"

Wow. You people really got silly last night.

It's supposed to get up to a blazing 35F today. Which considering that it's 10 right now, is a welcome break.

I spent my evening at a tiny Hah-vahd SF con talking to Patrick and Teresa Neilsen Hayden, Jacqueline Carey, James Morrow, and more. Nice guest list for such a little con. And they have a nice small amphitheatre-type hall for the panel track, which looks like a set for a law school movie -- the seats are maroon velvet. And the acoustics are perfect.

Timelies to ya.

Trust my rage

Timelies! I just got back from walking three miles in the cold with the dogs. I had hoped they would be tired after this.

Instead, Toby is wagging his tail loudly against the door and barking at me while looking in the general direction of where his bones are stored. I've explained that the bones for treats for evenings, but he doesn't seem to accept that.

ETA: I put him in his kennel, with the door closed, but not locked, just to distract him from the bones for a minute. When I went in there just now, he had opened the door, but was still sitting inside with his paws just barely sticking out. I'm convinced this is his way of saying "I could leave if I wanted to, but I really *want* to be in here."

All is well that ends in pizza.

CHRIST ON A FUCKING STICK

Much different than a pogo stick.

Also? P-C is RIPPING OFF RIO!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

P-C is RIPPING OFF RIO!

Heh. I had the same thought, that anyone who skimmed would think Rio had paid a visit. But I wasn't ripping off Rio, really. I was actually SCREAMING IN ASSCAPS.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Both KristinT and Hec owe me royalties for their LJ icons.

My car is demonstrably non-snowbound!

Not being a fool, I immediately put it back in the space. There's nothing like a car to hold your car space on the street, I find.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Tom! I will pay you royalties only if I get to see you on the 14th. You're coming out with us, right?

Edit: Also, I'm with Theo on the "Yay, balmy!" It is 34 degrees today! Things are MELTING! And yes, that utterly deserves ASSCAPS.

Edit#2: Tom, are you on LJ? I would love to friend you if so. Send me your LJ nickname.

Nope, not on LJ.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Are there super model animals too? Or would that just be silly?

Click and Clack are talking about the east coast snowstorm on Car Talk.

Ray's wife (on phone): Ray, you're an idiot!

ETA: oops, thought I was in bitches. Oh well.
