Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

I think the wishlist is too computerific for my mom. No, really.

Today is not starting well. The alarm got unplugged (feeling twitchy, ita?) so I was massively late, had to park elsewhere and I can only park there for 2 hours so have to move it, the walk to the car involves iced over sidewalks which means treacherous baby steps and just BLARG. I'm surprised the city doesn't get sued over the condition of the sidewalks in public areas. I'm surprised more people don't slip and get hit by cars. It's scary.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I know it's partly the lack of sleep, but Bones is making me cry and cry. Like a SUCKER.

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

That was a really really cry-worthy Bones.

As long as it's not just me.

It's definitely too computerific for my family. Trying to get them to the wishlist would be, to use a phrase from an old David Steinberg routine, like explaining alternate side of the street parking to a cranberry.

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

I canna deal with the Wishlist. I tried it before, but, I don't shop regularly at Amazon, so I never update it. And, except for books and DVDs, I think in broad types of what I would like for Christmas, rather than in specific tokens. (OMG that is info-studies jargon: type and token.)

So, like, I said, "Some kind of slipper with a bottom that is not fabric, that will keep my feet warm. Elmo pelt OK."

Not only did I not have to find several tokens of this type to show variety, it took me less time to type up the phrase than it did to search something out on Amazon.

(I now have alpaca slippers with leather bottoms.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Trashy vintage novels as iPod cases

Cool idea.

But they're destroying books! In my cosmology, taking apart books gets you sent to the special hell.
