Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Lazy and like any other day, but with better food! So about right. Now, if my apartment had miraculously cleaned itself, that would have been nice.

move out and draw fire

Yes. But what day isn't that true of?

It's almost 11:00 here, so I'm off to bed. No concert at the park tonight! It's disturbingly quiet. And next week the theater has Dom Juan... how loud can Moliere be?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like I heard somewhere that Saddam Hussein started the first-name thing himself because it sounds like a king or etc. I would guess other people keep doing it because of the possible King Hussein confusion.

Edit: This guy [link] says it's Just How Things Are Done, but that doesn't make a ton of sense to me wrt the other local leaders we call by their family names.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Hey Tom, we ended up seeing the 1 pm penguin movie. I looked for you in the lobby, but we must have just missed each other.

Penguins, I now know, are adorable, but lead incredibly boring lives. (They walk to the breeding grounds, they walk back. Lather, rinse, repeat. And that they're lucky to have so few predators, because their survival instincts are not all that good. Attempted chicknapping by another female penguin? Noooooooo!!! Scary predator bird attacking the chicks? Eh, whatever. But then, I knew that from Winged Migration.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Grumph

I spent an hour and a half on the road to get to the bookstore, because I-95 sucked like a giant sucking thing that sucks.(Stupid BW parkway and its sinkhole)I get to the store only to find they don't even have most of the books I'm looking for. we're talking about books that have come out within the last 6 months, so they should be there. Now I need to e-mail the owner of the store(who was not the person at the store today) to see if they even have these books in stock.(The store needs to be better organized. Much better organized)

Everything is clean!

Now I'm baking chicken and you just KNOW I will manage to slop something on my nice clean floor.

ION, it looks like my paper's tvguide didn't get the memo that Welcome to the Neighborhood was pulled.

Ah well, it's often wrong. And disturbing, as it has this kinda frightening picture of a dude on the cover (Dave Nacarro?)

But Sheryl! You can tell everyone all about being inconvenienced by the sinkhole that ate Baltimore! Or Washington, depending on your local new's spin.

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

You know what's trouble? Opening up your Launch song ratings in one window, and the iTunes store in the other.

Take it from me.

Still, iTunes needs more Aaliyah, for starters.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm having a very 1989 day, apparently -- I just got the 100 Top Billboard Hits of 1989 (so ridiculous!), and now it's 89 on I Love The Eighties. I cannot get enough Milli Vanilli today!

What is even happening?

Gotta blame it on something...
