Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, two things from the Daily Show commercial break: There was an ad for a show with a guy who said, "The problem with the world is there are too many stupid people.... and not enough people to eat them!" Sounds like something people here might like.

Also, who's the guy doing the voiceover in the Budweiser ad? He's so familiar, and I can't figure it out.

I'll agree with that.

msbelle better have taped the Inside. I'd mentioned it to mom & there was a review in the paper (that was pretty good) and she didn't sound too interested (mind, they haven't seen series tv in um....years.) So we cooked instead.

Took the parents to Druid Hill Park, Hampden, I was bought a real pottery bowl (as opposed to ziploc disposable) and then I took them to Dickeyville which is utterly darling and does not feel like it is in the city. We walked and admired gardens and then came home and made dinner and perused real estate stuff. She tells me she realizes now it is a totally different ballgame than at home. Possibly not even the same language. So she understands my daunt.

Uh, I think my dad's phone just beeped at me. Or there is some piece of electronics invading my house. Kinda creepy.

Um, how often do cellphones bloop when they have low battery? Because if it is frequent, I may have to flush it.


JenP - Jun 08, 2005 6:30:23 pm PDT #623 of 10001

It's pretty frequent. If mine does that, I have to turn it off (if I'm not able to plug it into the charger, that is). Can't stand the repeat-o bleep.

Jon Stewart hearts Colin Powell. Aw.

OK, now must figure out how the hell to turn it off. Dad's asleep and...well, I don't know if HE knows how without swearing a lot.

edit: I think I did it! Woohoo go me! (I've never really dealth with cellphones. I think I might have left a voicemail in the process, but NO BLOOPING.)

Art Crawl!!!

sarameg, I just saw msbelle in Minearverse mentioning that she had watched on tape delay.

Your tag here.

Who created the Buffistas logo? It's really well done.

I think it was DX. But I could be wrong, it was a while ago.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I watched, but I SUCK, cause I forgot and deleted. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone else say they can get it on tape for me and sara. I need a tape for another friend. I SUCK.

Also, I measured myself for a skirt tonight and I totally was wrong about my differential - it may have been like 14" in college, but it is about 12" now.

I know you all have been wondering...I have decided to wear a suit to quit tomorrow. actually a new suit but with vintage cut. it is pale green.

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

it is pale green.

Does it match the green-with-envy shade they'll be when they realized you won't be around anymore?
