Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Em turns a year in a week and a half.

Holy crap.

Hey Rio! How's the bod? (Was it your hip, with the moving machine and the whatnot?) Did you answer that already and I skimmed by?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Since TV Guide changed their format I haven't seen them in checkout lines. Have other people noticed this, or is it just where I shop?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

So, each different lottery ticket is like an entry in a totally different lottery?

Well, enough like it to treat it that way. If you have 40,000,000 tickets and 1,000,000 winners, then whether or not ticket A is a winner does almost nothing to the probability that ticket B is a winner.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I am tired for no good reason, stressed out about school, and hate my job. But actually, I'm great!

I went and saw Colbert tape tonight, which was very funny.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH is reading his copy of Contingencies. Why, yes, actuaries have their own magazine. It's filled with some interesting tidbits he shared.

1. An Association for Insurance Commissioners was set to have a conference in September. In New Orleans. They opted to cancel it.

2. The Microsoft ad with the Crime Fighting Actuary Who Always Gets the Girl was mentioned.

3. There's a math puzzle at the back.

What's funny is that without seeing Alias yet, and being unspoiled, and only starting to watch this year, I could still guess what was in sumi's whitefont.

Ooh, I have a medical question, kinda -- I have what I guess is a small stye on the bottom edge of my eye. Is that a hot washcloth situation?

In Australia it's called Actuary Australia. And people say actuaries have no imagination! My favourite quote from said magazine: "A special mention must go to Dermot Balson for his completely inappropriate contribution about nuns."
