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

We would complement each other perfectly!

You could also compliment each other perfectly. I think you'd be good at it.

I'm in a green velvet giant-houndstooth boat-necked top, and narrow-legged (as most of my pants are) light grey trousers with a single pleat, and a break as they fall to my (Aerosoles) boots. Silver thread earrings with black Svarovski crystals at the end.

And reading glasses.

I'm wearing knee-high shiny black boots what click when I walk. Everything else I'm wearing is otherwise boring.

I am very excited because the BF and I are going to go see the play "Anna in the Tropics" for V-day.

I am very envious. I heard a short selection from it somewhere after getting a copy of the play for my mom. She hasn't shared it with me yet!!

Art Crawl!!!

I just got the 05 Office Max catalog -- and not only are there highlighters with Post-it Flags -- there are also ballpoint pens with Post-it Flags!

I'm wearing black jeans, my new favorite burgundy Keen sneakers, and a forest green polo shirt. Which I just noticed has a hole in it. Ah well, the sartorial disaster that is me.

See, I like a lot of those outfits.

I've liked a lot of his stuff in the past, even if I couldn't ever see myself wearing it, but these weren't well constructed and didn't even fit the size zero models properly. Which is why I think his heart just wasn't into this collection because he knew he'd lost.

Also, I think that Nina Whatsherface is also cursing Nancy O'Dell. A number of reports characterized Wendy's collection as looking "unfinished." One article even mentioned how you could see a zipper hanging as the model walked the runway.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I occasionally get songs in iTunes that I don't remember. A Kind Of Loving by the Police had me checking to see what it was. It's even more disturbing when you know the title.

Did anyone talk about this classic Bush moment?

On Feb. 4, 2005, President Bush was in Omaha, Nebraska participating in "a conversation on strengthening social security," during which there was an amazing exchange:

THE PRESIDENT: Good. Okay, Mary, tell us about yourself.

MS. MORNIN: Okay, I'm a divorced, single mother with three grown, adult children. I have one child, Robbie, who is mentally challenged, and I have two daughters.

THE PRESIDENT: Fantastic. First of all, you've got the hardest job in America, being a single mom.

MS. MORNIN: Thank you. (Applause.)

THE PRESIDENT: You and I are baby boomers.

MS. MORNIN: Yes, and I am concerned about -- that the system stays the same for me.

[Interlude of President airily trying to explain that SS will stay the same after he dismantles it.]

THE PRESIDENT: And so thank you for asking that. You don't have to worry.

MS. MORNIN: That's good, because I work three jobs and I feel like I contribute.

THE PRESIDENT: You work three jobs?

MS. MORNIN: Three jobs, yes.

THE PRESIDENT: Uniquely American, isn't it? I mean, that is fantastic that you're doing that. (Applause.) Get any sleep? (Laughter.)

MS. MORNIN: Not much. Not much.

THE PRESIDENT: Well, hopefully, this will help you get you sleep to know that when we talk about Social Security, nothing changes.

MS. MORNIN: Okay, thank you.

THE PRESIDENT: That's great.

Does anyone have any recommendations of hot chocolate mixes I can use at work? The just-add-water types. We have Nestle here, and it's got way more sugar than cocoa. I like less sweet, more dark.
