I got to the party late, so I was taking care of two hyperactive dogs and six drunk people... which didn't suck all that much, actually, because the dogs are ridonkulously cute, and most of the drunk people were family, and thus adorkable.

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.
no shrift seems very very wrong.
I am feeling very nappy, but I have 2 more hours to wait for cable. hrm. perhaps I should start a movie. I am sure he'd get here as soon I got into it a bit. Really i9f I want him to show up I should jump in the shower, that is a surefire way.
It is very wrong, but the break room is full of doughnuts, and I only have to be here for two more hours.
And I have iTunes cranked.
If you have to be at work, that's the way to do it.
Right now I'm barefoot, devouring a doughnut with chocolate frosting and listening to MISTER POSTMAN, DO YOU HAVE A LETTER FOR MEEEEE?, and it's fucking great!
That does sound awesome.
I'm waiting for people to call so I can go meet them for breakfast/lunch and then maybe a movie. We may go see Serenity again, or maybe Wallace and Grommit.
I have a new first cousin once removed, and isn't her big sister a doll? She's cuter than my kid! [link]
She's cuter than my kid!
Unpossible!
I don't understand how people trip and fall into such things, unable to get out.
I personally think it's that people just want to belive things. I think we're most of us hardwired that way. It doesn't seem to matter what the belief structure is. Though it seems to me that the more the belief structure takes away the burden of thinking for yourself and the more it blames a specific group of easily hated people for all the problems and evils in the world, the easier it is to believe.
Having been in pretty damned cult-like church for, oh, 4-5 years, let me just say: What Sean Said.
Cults work by convincing people that they are smarter than the average person, and that by joining [insert cult here], they can become even moreso. They feed off of pride and paranoia, both of which are in ample supply.
And also What Jess Said.
Do people in cults think that they are in a cult?
Eventually, some do. And then they become Buffistas. (I am, of course, referring to me, in case anyone missed the innuendo.)
Oh, I meant to say, Perkins, it's always time for popcorn.
No, it's actually PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!!!
It's damp, warm and humid here. What happened to fall?
If Boston gets Cincinnati's weather when we're done with it, fall is definitely on its way. And in that spirit, I am going to go bake pumpkin bread.
