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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I just caught up on several days of Natter. And I intend to comment on almost none of it. Day-um, we got debatey. However...

I want to work where ChiKat works.

‘Trophy wives in training’? Huh.

I am not getting into the PPV/buy/rent/monthly debate as I only have personal prefs and no cites at all, but I have Blockbuster's version of NetFlix as they give me a couple of free in-store rentals per month (that expire at the end of said period so you can't store up) for the same cost. Of which, in three months, I have used one. But I like knowing I have it.

Alton Brown makes me interested in foods that I know I don't like. The pickle show being pretty much a crowning moment. Except for pickled ginger, but that likely is mostly me liking the ginger.

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.
I am thinking of starting krav or something hematoma-ish just so I can have an excuse for the bruising. Currently it is almost always self-inflicted and while I might have an unhealthy relationship with myself, I am almost certain that it really was my fault.

My tv is trying to give me seizures. Wickedly bad flickering. I'm tempted to toss a chenille throw over it as I am only listening to music through it. It seems to only be on the music channels, but on all of the ones I like. Huh.

Anyone still up?
Yes, but I feel this is a mistake. Natter should be skipped and skimmed when gone for more than a few hours.

I'm up working. I'm not sure that's much better.

Well your reason is better than the futless version of awake I am doing. Not better though than either of us actually sleepying right now. (And, to hell with it, I am leaving that typo.)

The tv seems to be telling me that we are making new Tasmanian devils to bring back after extinction. The crucial word is SEEMS because I have't paid any attention. I've replaced the actual show with Lost World. Let's see if anyone notices.

'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"

Uh-oh. There's a megatherium in my backyard. At least I know who to blame, Cass! t glares

Blame the scientist, I was only being a journalist...

Everything is my fault. Even when I'm not really here.

Sail, I'm sorry.

Nilly! Cass! Theo!

I am awake. I have been awake since 4:30. My brain, she is a strange creature. I still hit the snooze button when my alarm went off at 5:45. Why?

I am also now at work in my plan period, aka OMGWTF I Don't Have Lessons for Today Yet and Kids Will Be Here Soon.

A slight exaggeration, but only slight.

Wrong like a cute-headed wrong.

Kristin, I hope you get your lessons planned and have snuck out for coffee already if you are up this early. Hazelllllllnutt....

I am unwound which leans toward the idea of sleep. Just that I was looking for this about six hours ago.

Cass, where is your tagline from?

I think I fall in love with people and give them pieces. I don't know if I am going to end up a whole person, with bits of me in different places, owned by different people.

(Also, not here. Trying to finish checking the exercises I had to grade last week. And, well, grading needs taking breaks. Ask Burrell or Kat or anybody. Not Kristin, though - she seems to have her hands full this morning).
