I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Maybe it's the cutie pie Beetles that are the problem.

This is true. I concede this point. Just out of curiosity, was yours made in Mexico?

I bet I can get you a deal.

Whoo hoo! I love the internet. And my internet buds. I've got Perkins offering me mothership discounts and I have someone on LJ who it seems knows someone at VW corporate and is gonna hook me up with some customer service people.

Guess I don't need to buy that www.VWbrokemyheart.com URL now.

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

Bradley Cooper who I love in spite of myself!

There's no in spite!

Which reminds me -- you haven't seen Wedding Crashers yet, have you?

Just out of curiosity, was yours made in Mexico?

I do not know. I wonder if Google will tell me...

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

Hell, I can get you a t-shirt that says "I visited the mother ship".

Not that I have one or anything.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Virgil was the Octavian-publicist version of Homer. He's all about the "Well, okay, the Greeks were wicked cool, but we're, you know, we ARE Greeks, only way more evolved and cooler and god-ordained. Like, we even have more to the story that the Greeks thought ended with Odysseus in Ithaka."

Basically, Virgil was Karl Rove, and the Aeneid was his campaign commercial.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I think Wedding Crashers might be on my list for this week some time, like if I need to chill and remind myself that my life isn't entirely broken yet.

Also, the strassbourg sock? NOT WORKING. I think I need to buy a night splint. (not related, clearly).

So I guess it's just the Beetle then.

You know, I wondered why the new convertibles didn't have the flap. The flap makes the lines of the car much prettier.

Now I think I know why they did away with them.

I can get you a t-shirt that says "I visited the mother ship".

hee. I SO need one of those. I've become a craxxy mac cult-ish person. In a really short amount of time.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

That's an interesting sock, there, missy.

I have an intermittent sharp pain at the big knuckle of the big toe of my right foot which is exacerbated by any shoes at all. It's quite annoying.
