Ooh, I forgot to mention, I have a new TV.

My dad, who is doing much better after a couple of really scary days by the way, went out and bought himself a big ass tv in anticipation of the next month or two of sitting on his ass at home 24-7. So I made off with the 27" instead of my current 14.

Now I need some new furniture, though. The shelf my tv is currently on won't work for the bigger one. Because I need the shelving, and like things higher rather than lower, I don't really want one of the low stands that are all over (though I'm in love with this if only it were bigger and/or cheaper). So something more like an entertainment center, except not fugly, is what I'm hoping to find. Suggestions? My living room furniture is mostly dark wood, accented with red, so something that at least wouldn't totally clash would be good.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

SoCal should totally stop having our weather. Come summer, we're all going to be so screwed, you with the new growth turning to fires, and us with the lack of water.

Yup. They can't handle water; we can't handle not-water.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So ironic, the slayer of duckies being nibbled to death herself...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I went to Quiznos to get lunch. A customer took exception to Quiznos removing corn bread from the menu. He said, "The government is ripping us off, and now you too."

Um, huh?

Give me corn bread, or give me death!

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

I don't like today. It's not right.

I'd like a do-over....can you make it be so?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Knudsen's Tropical Punch is clear. This is a nice thing to learn as you are spilling it all over yourself.

For all that is holy, please don't make me do over February. I'm barely sure I'm going to make it out of the month alive.

What is even happening?

Give me corn bread, or give me death!
There's something to that philosophy.

eta...

Yeah, sarameg. I never get wanting a do-over. I want skip-overs.
