Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
but I've also got a mod one for the comic book artist who does Blue Monday
Hec, the next time you talk to her, could you please let her know that I adore her work and am goggle-eyed with envy that you know her well enough to make video compilations for her?
I am having a blah day. I was hoping to rest this weekend, finally get over the bug I've been fighting off, maybe wander around some thrift stores. Instead, I get to take care of a poor sickly artist, because Pete came down with the flu.
Non-intellectual, non-shallow things that one might find attractive: devotion to family, reliability, work ethic, determination, religious faith, optimism, zest for life, courage...
I'd say sense of humor and general kindness should probably be on the list as well.
Today I went out for a very tasty bowl of crawfish chowder at the too-pricey lunch place. The hostess introduced me to Hottie!Bartender, whereupon he looked at her like she was crazy and said "we know each other!" Apparently tipping more than 20% will get you noticed.
After that I went to see Hide and Seek (nicely creepy!) and out book shopping. I ended up doing the latter at two stores, since I felt like employees at the first were constantly trying to step into the space I was occupying. Note to manager: regular bookstore customers are often people who like quiet and solitude, hence the reading rather than, say, dancing in a mosh pit for recreation. That means that yelling to employees on the other side of the store and restocking the shelves browsing customers are looking at while brushing shoulders with them will not create a comfortable environment.
I have had an odd day that leads me to feel that it must be the middle of the night already -- I went to the movies, and then met friends at a bar, but the movie was a matinee, and the thing at the bar started at 5. In between, I also got a dress and a jacket at 75% off, which ROCKS.
So now I feel I should go to bed.
I have just now discovered The Kumars at No. 42. I am officially dead.
If a person is not very smart but also not shallow, what do they fall in love with in another person? How someone thinks and expresses themself has always been the big attraction for me, and if that's not important to me, what would I go by?
t insert standard never fallen disclaimer here If someone is strong, sweet, kind, funny, gentle, fierce, has morals that don't clash in a world ending way with mine, brave, protective, and unbinding, I'd see that as tremendously attractive. I wouldn't fall in love with someone merely for not being annoying, but I have been attracted to at least one pretty dumb guy -- he wasn't annoying with it in the least, not in the short term. He was just simple.
I got a "I hope you left the bastard," from a stranger today. It was entrapment, because I did first tell him a guy hit me, but still. It's something.
Hey, not to bust in on the love-talk, but anybody in the Boston area interested in Red Sox tickets? I am looking at the schedule of games on sale as of today, and a lot of the series are available. (Including the interleague home games, which are Atlanta, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh this year.) I am thinking about Minnesota at the end of July, or Oakland in May, or "the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" (officially now LAA rather than ANA) in June. MFY tickets are not on sale right now.
Night games are just as convenient for me, although I know day games are a lot easier for out-of-towners. All those interested, drop me an email, OK?
Perkins the cat just sat on a postit note, which got stuck on his tail, which led to several minutes of trying to figure out what was chasing him, followed by running away from me as I tried to pull it off his tail.
Proving that cats are for mocking?

As opposed to stacking?
