Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Okay...Better Electrician Guy has been poking around for almost half an hour, and he has succeeded in somehow disconnecting the power to my refrigerator. Which is on a separate circuit from the outlet that he was supposed to be fixing.

I just need him for the iDVD issue. Maybe I can sell him, slightly used, on ebay after.

Um. I think he might need a new name.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
UPS.com tells me my TiVo is sitting on the front porch. Now I get to worry all afternoon about whether it will still be there when I get back.
UPS says that my Harry Potter book has left the UPS center that's, say, 10 miles away from here, and is "In Route to Final Destination."
Now, that's different from "Out for Delivery," which is what it usually says at this point. But I read that UPS is delivering the HP books to the USPS, and they (the USPS) will deliver books to people's homes tomorrow. (Because UPS's weekend delivery charges are too high.)
Thag want book now.

It is turning out to be a more ironic nickname than I'd hoped.
I'm supposed to get my HP delivered tomorrow by Amazon, but since DH ordered it (on his account), and is at ComicCon all weekend, I can't check on the shipping status.

HP is at our local B&N not sure if we will get it at midnight or wait 'til tomorrow morning. Depends on the awakeness. midnight might actually be fun. If I have my sense of humor back then.

Oh my god I'm going to die of hunger if I don't eat soon. Maybe I'll just leave these guys to keep working while I run out to Zaytoon's. It's not like I'm supervising them as it is.

I'm a little scared of being at my local Borders at midnight with a bunch of hyperactive kids. I think I'll wait until 1 or so.

Because I was driving past one of those high end furniture stores on Melrose and, featured in their window display, was a very large ceramic rabbit. Like an Easter Bunny looking ceramic rabbbit. It's probably 2-3 feet tall. And I suddenly thought, "Oh god. I wish I had a camera so I could show all my friends. Right. Now."
This right there is what makes a camera phone worth every penny. Love.
