I swear there have been many fewer trucks than usual driving down my street. What is up with that?
Also, the humidity is killing me. I'm just sitting here and the sweat is pouring down my face.
Numfar! Do the dance of joy.

Perkins, how many of Lily's toes are you going to eat?
Cindy's mean!
Yep.
Hey, where are the good Harry Potter spoilers on the interbunny? I can't find anything. I want to know what P-C got spoiled for, as the chance that I'll read the book in the near future is actually zero (I have at least two, maybe 3 others to read before I get there).

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Big delivery truck accident. Cases of Harry Potter strewn all over the freeway.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
it was odd - we went to the cafe today and people seemed to think we were crazy for going last night to get HP. although at least one person was reaching out with cluching hands. Sadly, I also reliezed that one of my friends is just too cynical. He just seems baffled by anoyone's enthusiasim for anything. I love when people are enthusiatic about something, even if I think they are crazy.
eta: DH read me the first chapter last night. He gets to read it first, because he does read it faster. I am just going to tell kids at the library that they can't tell me the end.

well it's either clean the garage or clean the closet.

DH and I have come to a tentative agreement- i won't tell him to clean - and he won't tell me. I do most of it - because I am home more. It doesn't mean I don't have a list of things to get done- which we both work off of, or that he doesn't try and convince me to help him with the dishes - but the right to refuse is there. I think if we had kids things would have to be more formal. Ihave friends with a daughter - she is twelAt this point in her life she can't do any type of domestic chore. I think it is bad to make a kid sort of helpless in the basic things like cleaning and cooking. they could end up like Sean and eat moldy rice out of a tube.

Those aren't happy choices. Unless you were being funny about closet, in which case, I laugh, but with you, not at you, because you should get to read your book. I never laugh when people don't get to read their books, unless it's my kids, because they've had a huge, negative impact on my reading life.
