This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Up with the sun

I suspect that some of the name changers got mixed up--maybe you and Lyra Jane, as you both changed to L names, and Lyra got married in the last couple of years?

I bet that's it, though I would not have made the connection -- I just assumed Lysana had a graduate degree I didn't know about.

I don't even like the name Cynthia.

It's my mom's name. Which is not pro- or con- Cynthia --I think it's a pretty name but a bit too frilly for me to use -- but merely a data point.

ION, WHY am I up at 8:30 on a Saturday?

Trust my rage

I'm eating pancakes and watching Shakespeare in Love. Not the most productive use of my time, but a nice break for me.

What is even happening?

I'm sitting here, watching my name being dissed. I've had worse mornings.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

ION, WHY am I up at 8:30 on a Saturday?

I asked my self the same question. I am giving myself until noon to be a self-indulgent slug. Then, back to work on the house.

'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 rise with the sun. Generally, I don't have a choice. Especially with the cats around for sunrise backup duty.

Reasons to proofread your tattoo.

(Though in her journal, she says the typo is on purpose, and OMIGOD why are people so MEEEEEN. So maybe the link should really say, "reasons dumb people shouldn't get tattoos.")

Not only is it spelled wrong, it's a fug-ugly tattoo, and it seems to be on an unattractive part of the body.

Those who are paying attention may notice I've not left the house. I'm going to correct this now, really.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Why would anyone get a deliberately misspelled tattoo? "Wrod" makes me giggle when I type it, but I wouldn't want it on my ASS forever.

I'm up so early (hell yes, it's early for me on a Saturday) because I have to go to a friend's grandmother's funeral. I only vaguely remember the grandmother, though I did meet her at some point or another. I'm really just going to be all supportive of my friend, but -- damn, baby. A Saturday morning?

I just finished my cereal, and I need to get a move on.

Our wings are not tired.

Yuck, I didn't need to see that tattoo before breakfast.

JCPenney is using a cover of "99 Red Balloons" in a Valentine's Day commercial.

Not only did they use the song but they elevatorized it shamefully. I was not pleased.

Woo Hoo and
Happiest Birthdays to Kristin and Maria!

Welcome to the world Abraham! Congrats to the Hayden parental units.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Timelies!

I wish I had a fancy and yummy breakfast food right now like pancakes or waffles or bacon or something. But there is just coffee, and if I want anything else, it's cereal.

Also, while she's adorable, Cat is driving me batshit. She won't not be on me, and she won't stop picking me or the couch. I need to find a way to curb the kneading thing.
