Did you ever hear the story about the dude who sold aerogel on eBay?
Um... I think so. He got a big spanking, right?
What'd you all order a dead guy for?

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 can't even.
Why did I read this "Fatboy Jesus," and why does that take my brain into places I don't want it to go?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I mean, aerogel IS SO COOL! And I would like to have some and wonder if I can rent some, but stealing is bad.

Can't see the latte art, but it reminds me of a story that's been around forever about astronomers. Mornings of a conference, a couple of famous astronomers who study galaxy morphology are found consuming copious amounts of coffee. As they pour cream in, they call out the morphological types: Spiral A! Peanut! Spiral B! Elliptical!
And yeah, back when I studied galaxies, I'd idly find the types in my morning coffee....
Sugar cat is off being boarded. The staff was excited to see him and arguing over who got to carry him to the back. He's known as the cat that hugs. He also gets let out by the bookkeeper in the evenings so he can keep her company after close. Mainly, sit on her lap and be adoring.
I'm packed, wondering if I should toss in a skirt and hose in case the country club thing sunday is one of those picky ones. And what if the dinner tomorrow is more formal than jeans? Then I have to pack a skirt because ...oy.
Dinner is a frozen pizza. Which I'm having now because I MUST go to bed early. I need to get up by four am at the latest. Uhg.

About a decade ago, a friend of mine interned a LLNL and got to play with the stuff. I think I need to play with some, because I can't quite wrap my head around it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's always worth tossing in a skirt, sara -- they don't take up much space, right? Unless you want an excuse to go shopping, which I bet you don't.

Yeah, no shopping. It's all complicated because what would go with tomorrow's clothes won't go with sunday's. I could have planned better but...eh.

I am done with the database nightmare for today. I got it all into 3 files. I could probably work a full week on this and almost have it to where I think it is workable. Of course no one here woudl even get how much work it is and why it is important, but there you go. It's hard to care a lot.
I need to go take some advil for my arms are killing me after typing all day.
I think my dinner will be BBQ chicken and some sauted zucchini and a COKE FLOAT!!!
