So I'm poking around online to find synopses of shows I've missed and on the JoA site there is Joan's Diary. The interesting thing is that it includes weeks when the show didn't air and the diary entries touch on current events. My favorite so far:

I've been sneezing a lot lately. Does that mean I have bird-flu?

So I'm watching Inside the Actor's Studio and you want to know who the guest was? J. Lo. J.Lo?! What's she ever done? She's such a great actor now that students should study and learn from her? I mean, come on. It's ridiculous, right? But I do like that questionnaire they have at the end. I'd tell you what J. Lo's favorite word is, but I couldn't suffer through the whole thing. So I'll tell you my favorite word instead: codswallop.
Just watched Alias. I think on
Buffy, I bought why magic was crack more than I buy why Rambaldi is crack. That leadup was better.

Sloane is having the desired effect on me.

So, today's high was 87. Tomorrow's is expected to be 55. This is making it really hard to plan my week.

Warning - this puzzle may drive you insane:
But speaking of the Video of the Day, today it's a simple animated gif. It takes a few seconds to move, so be patient. While you wait, count the number of figures, there should be 12. After it moves, count them again and there are 13. Where did the extra one come from?
I had to stare at the thing for a long time to figure it out....

55 in Boston tomorrow? Hmm. Is that what the weather's supposed to be like there for the rest of the weekend?
Nah, not really.
Maybe I shouldn't have tried to solve it at 3 in the morning....
That's really interesting, tommyrot.
I have had a computer miracle! As I was going to bed last night, my cat got caught in my computer cords, and pulled the whole shebang off the coffee table. So I went and looked, and my jump drive was all askew sticking out of the USB port. I pulled it out, it was fucked up. So I went to bed, figuring I'd deal with it in the morning. This morning, I just bent the USB part of the drive back into shape, plugged it back in, and all is well! PHEW.
