Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Are you replacing LaGuardia or JFK?

Weekend Good: Cleaning out massive amounts of crap from bedroom closet and hallway cupboards. Hanging out with Kristin and Debet. Finding a second carseat on sooper sale at Target. New slipcovers!

Weekend Bad: Getting sick.

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

You're a doll!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Weekend good: Went to a fundraiser with Smonster and Amyth. Bid on and won a nifty owl print. Got a whole bunch of stuff I've been meaning to do (in some cases for years) done.

Weekend bad: Started this month's book group book and realized I would probably spend most of the book hating one of the two leads. Good thing it's a quick read. Tried on potential dress for the fundraiser mentioned above and realized I'm still 5-10 pounds from looking good in it. Had minor "OMG I'll never get another good job in my entire life" meltdown Saturday. (Got over it, mostly.)

Huh, it looks like the White House altered the transcript of one of McClellan's press briefings and is standing behind it.

It's just pathetic.

I should weigh myself. Or not. I feel way too skinny, I swear the mirror tells me I'm way too skinny, but the nutritionist reported my weight at 138. That's my fuck-I-should-stop-running weight. It's annoying, but it's not unhealthy.

It's not like they have him ON VIDEOTAPE saying, "That's accurate."...oh...wait a minute....

Kinsey's Institute for Sex Research sign for sale on eBay:

This is the original outdoor sign used by Kinsey's Institute for Sex Research when they moved to Indiana University's Jordan Hall in 1955. This is a one of a kind item and I have no idea where this auction will go so I have started with a low opening bid and no reserve. The sign is metal with plenty of surface rust and dirt. I have not tried to clean it and will leave any restoration effort up to the winning bidder. The sign weighs 15 lbs. and measures 20" high and 30" wide

I've decided to make a viking style shield to go with the toy swords I made for my kids. My jig saw skills aren't great though, so it may be exactly a circular shield. Also, I'm not going to do a real boss, but use a small piece of wood painted metallic. I think I'll paint it half orange and half blue.
