Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

The cynical part of me thinks that urine would be about the easiest thing evah to fake for lawsuit documentation if one were running a scam. They could have a beer bust and then go to the construction site in the middle of the night.

'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"
Yesterday, the hotel maid who was making up the room for me asked if I'd heard about Terry Schiavo. I said yes cautiously, because I didn't know if it was a hot button issue for her, but she said that she was happy the poor girl was at rest now, and said that her parents were wrong in trying to keep clinging to her like that. "And fifteen years... you'd think if there was going to be a miracle, there would have been one," she added. So my un-scientific survey of African-American Mid-Atlantic church-going working moms shows that they're more sensible than CNN....

Personally, one thing about the uninvolved uninformed political harping over this that I really like is that the current administration's obstinacy and tendency to ignore information they don't like is for once blowing up in their faces. The Bushes seem curiously unaware that 89% of the populace believes they should have butted the hell out from the beginning. To get more than 89% of the people in this country to agree on anything you'd need a Nazi saluting the swastika and talking about breathing room.

Disconcerting sign of faith of the day: I was crossing the street this morning, and a semi was pulled up at the crosswalk to wait for the light. On the front bumper, either on the biggest bumper sticker I've ever seen or custom painted was "Believe in the Lord Jesus your Savior and be saved."
I thought, "That's a mildly disturbing thing to see coming up in your rearview mirror (assuming you could read it reversed). I wonder if there's an 'or else' implicit in that?" After all, a couple of hundred tons of metal coming up on your tailpipe, advising you that it's time to be saved? I saw "Duel."

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

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not really drunk at 6am on a Friday, no.
But severely creeped out by the toddlerpedes. Thank god I'm not in the office today.
Speaking of creep, when I went into work e-mail to inform my boss I'd probably have to take the morning's conference calls from home, I answered a couple e-mails (some twice, because the dizziness makes typing difficult, and I tried to send them to people who don't exist), and got replies at 6am from the west coast. Some people.
Okay, really want to lie down now. My apartment is designed for reclining. This is annoying.
