- blinks at JZ's explanation* Huh. My mom always refers to the fact that her heart occaisionally skips a beat as a murmur, which is apparently a different thing entirely.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I could murder a tea latte right now.
Did the tea latte offend you in some manner?
Also, I am completely earwormed with "Love is All Around" because of Allyson. To the point that I had to find an MP3 of the Joan Jett version.

That is like Very Special ER Christmas news.
Snork. Does it come bundled with George Clooney? Not that I really want George Clooney. No, he can keep romping with Brad Pitt and Matt Damon.
Now I'm listening to the Buzzcocks.

The database is down, the sysadmins are all drinking and I've got a frog in my throat and wish I could go home.

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

Cars are getting thoroughly stuck on my street. I think some of them were cutting down the one-way the wrong way in order to avoid a traffic jam, so they're even more screwed up than if they'd gone the right way.

Also, first day of vacation is not going as planned. I woke up this morning to a sign!copy!emergency! That phone call was followed by a call from my dentist. It seems that one of the impressions they took yesterday didn't come out properly so I need to go back this afternoon to do it again.
In happy news, I just got two voicemails. One is from the warehouse telling me my new coffee table has finally made its way here from France. The second is from Disney confirming my appointment on Tuesday! Whoo hooo!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
My mom always refers to the fact that her heart occaisionally skips a beat as a murmur, which is apparently a different thing entirely.
Yup. A skipped beat is, well, a skipped beat. It's a rhythm issue, about which my knowledge is way less than half-assed, probably more like quarter-assed. But, nope, it's not a murmur. A murmur's an extra little sound slipping in somewhere around the regular beat.
At least, those are the rough, general, layperson working definitions for kid-murmurs. For all I know, it could be same vocabulary, totally different definitions for grown-ups. Cardiology is wacky that way.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Oh noes! The scary thunder, which I guess means "You are about to get the crap snowed out of you" has reached Beverly, Mass.
Well if it's the same as in Boston you sure are. I walked into an impromptu meeting after 1 and it looked like it was raining out. Came out an hour plus later and thought it was foggy. Nope, just a white-out blizzard with thunder/lightening chaser. Yikes! Hope this blows through quickly. I also hope Deb and whoever she's with are where they were going and not en route. Also wondering if this will frell up her appearence at Kate's (and Vortex's flight).
