Never watched GG, so this is purely tangential, but in certain online romance reader circles the kind of hero who sleeps with everything that moves but we're somehow supposed to believe reforms for the pure, virginal heroine is known as the Duke of Slut, and it's meant as an insult. I'm never going to write them and can rarely stand to read them.

Heh. No, the tatt was part of the dream. Trust me, when I get a new real one, you won't have to ask.

Dang.

Stay tuned this summer.

Pictures of Raquel's baby are SO CUTE! Especially the first one, he's precious!!

Also cute: Erin drunk.

Digital camera does sound the way to go, and I *have* been meaning to buy one, but I suspect this means not only buying the camera ($$$) but also extra memory ($). And I'm a little scared I'll lose or break it and then not only be out the money but not have the pictures anymore. That would be scary!! But, yeah. Gratification, iPhoto, and lack-of-scary-xray-machine-issues sound good.

Also? I have a cool-ass Egyptian visa in my passport now! It has neato stamps! (That look like little postage stamps, not just stamps-like-rubber-stamps)

I once slept in a hotel to the National Spelling Bee on ESPN.

Hee. I think I would find that way too stressful to go to sleep to. I'd be all testing myself and shit.

Am v. unhappy with Ratzinger. Boo.

Hell, The Gap is The Gap with fewer jeans.

Oddly, the other day while waiting for passport photos to be developed, I wandered into a Gap and found jeans that were $16 and fit me really nicely. It was strange.

Health-ma to anyone who needs it.

Last night was apparently the night for weird dreams--I had a long involved strange dream too.

OMG! I've just realized why pictures of UN nominee Bolton make me feel so weird! Dye that moustache blond and remove some lines--and he's my boyfriend from college! Ahhh!

I knew Joe was going to go weird.

Oh, connie, I don't mean to ignore the trauma of the ex's resemblance to Bolton, but lordy, that article makes my heart go pitter-pat:

... a Republican-controlled Senate committee scrapped plans for a vote in favor of a fresh look at allegations of unbecoming conduct.

"A fresh look at allegations of unbecoming conduct" -- I don't think I've ever heard prettier words attached to a Bush nominee.

I don't think I've ever heard prettier words attached to a Bush nominee.

If what that staffer said in her letter is true, then the man is a raving loon.

But, dude, typing that? Major buzzkill.

I am eating See's chocolates sent to us for National Library Week. It is a good week to be a librarian.

We got m&m's from Lexis. It was the best gift they've sent in ages. I could have scored two, if I hadn't been so honest. They came in video containers, and a friend thought that it was really some video on Lexis. No See's, though.
