It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Will they do that for free still?
Yeah, they'll troubleshoot it and fix it or replace it. I've been with Verizon for eight or nine years and if I don't get my phone upgrade, my umpteenth contract with them is over. And they know that it came busted, just that I haven't quite gone into a store yet.

The internet lured me with the ordering and activating and never dealing with an actual person. It lied.

What's Danger Mouse?

Cass, exactly. But, I also know that kids ruin literal things. Like books, chairs, markers, desks, sweaters.... you know. STUFF. Sometimes they mean to, often they don't. But it still happens.

They're little waves of mutilation.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ozzie just came in and lay on top of the crate box.

Definitely no crate yet.

Ah, see you're helping me revise my thought. People ruin everything.

crates = overrated.

OH! we cleaned our house. Which was clean for like 3 minutes.

Now tagless for your comfort.

What's Danger Mouse?

He's the greatest secret agent in the world.

Yes. The smaller ones are just less sneaky about it.

I have notes to write and I'm not looking forward to it.

This is my last obligationless weekend for a while and I am so glad I got to enjoy it with friends.

'If only Emily Flake was named queen of the universe, then we could all take pride in our spiteful thoughts and revel in our faux-pas, spend all our nights drinkin' and smokin' and all our days recovering from hang overs and sitting around, squeezing our flab. And we'd be late for work a lot. It would be heaven. I guess I'll have to take Emily's awesome comic book instead, and dream of what could be.' -Laura R. Weinstein, INSIDE VINEYLAND

I would totally vote her in trade for that happy life.

The monkey cake is so cute. I hope it was chocolate. I'd have just grabbed an arm or something. Chomp.

AH! Thanks Cashmere!

Other thing I should have done? Hem the 8654 pairs of pants in house that need hemming.
