I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'd want "findyourspot.com" if I were researching a move, which I'm not. At the moment. I'm looking for a more academic bent on things.

I can't even remember the damn name of what I'm looking for. Arrrgh. I'm going to have to call my dad and ask for help on my homework.

Now tagless for your comfort.

A cute little house down the street from us looks like it was foreclosed on by the state. No "For Sale" sign, but there is a placard in the window, the house is padlocked and is empty.

The county auditor's website says it's owned by HUD. It's totally affordable for a rental if it's for sale. But how do I find out if the house is going to be sold? Or auctioned off? Will a call to HUD give me the information I need?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Dana, is this what you're thinking of?

Hmm. I'm not sure, but it looks fascinating regardless. I'll definitely check it out. Thanks.

Yay! Jacob Carter on Jordan's Crossing! Playing the Dominican counsel, which is a little weird.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I think I use Scola's method of determining how to write plural possessives: if you actually say the extra s, write it down.

Hey Jesse! I was in your old 'hood this weekend. (Sorry, NYistas, for not telling you I was in town, but between family and friends and the wedding, I was totally booked.) Anyway, I had written down the address of the church where the wedding was held, and then when I printed out the information I had gathered last summer for NillyfestNYC (directions to the train station I was using, etc.), it also had the directions to Jesse's old apartment, and I realized it was literally around the corner from the church. I felt all cool and New York-savvy when I got there, 'cause I knew where the good bagel place was, and the cute little park and everything.

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

Djimon Hounsou is 41. Not sure why that makes me happy, but it sure does.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Djimon Hounsou is 41.

Damn, he is a SEXY bitch. And the fact that he's holding a book just amps up the sexy big time.
