Random tangent:
I'm watching one of the worst movies ever made...that I happen to be in...at a distance anyway. (in 1984)
Good lawd. How did we ever survive the 80s?
I hate to admit it, but I'm an extra in Dreamscape. Did I mention worstEVER? yes, I am wearing a maroon skirt and vest set with navy blue knee socksforgive me!
Still, Eddie Albert was really nice. And one of the principal extras, Gene Scott, was the coolest guy. He'd been a POW in Korea and had harrowing stories to tell. He financed his 'extra habit' with a shmancy women's boutique in the Bonaventure hotel in LA. WOW. How can I remember that stuff so clearly 20 years later?
Nope, the movie isn't getting any better...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think that a) I'm an idiot, and b) I need Lori. I left my cell phone charger in Belmont, so I went and bought a travel one this morning, and I can't figure out how the effing thing is supposed to work.

That's just it. I know I am supposed to somehow fit together the charger and the phone's charging element. I just don't know how the hell that is supposed to happen.

Also? A 17 lb cat stumbling around on the out tray of a printer sounds very similar to a 7 lb cat standing on the ON button.
Freaky.

Perkins, I am not mocking. I am wallowing with you in confusion.
I am a physics BS who was trained by a tinkerer and I swore madly when I bought a car cd player converter/adaptor and it came with all these weird plugs. WTF. I fix my own stereo and rewire parts of my apartment. But the Tech sometimes confounds me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Stupid state tax question that might be CA only:
- Nowhere did I see it say I have to e-file before the 15th. But TurboTax won't give me my paperwork to mail in the cheque until the state okays my efile (24 to 48 hours). Yet, I need to mail in the cheque today.
I don't see how that works. I'm going to mail in the whopping $32 with my "reference" paperwork, and cross my fingers.

That should do. I vaguely recall reports of post office craziness as people try to get their stuff in with the 4/15 postmark.
( On the assumption that state and federal craziness is all equal. I'm too paranoid and freak if I do it less than 2 weeks in advance.)

So, uh, anybody here watching Numb3rs? Cause I'd like to geek-kibbitz a little, but if I'm the only one watching, it's self-geeking, which is just embarrassing.
