Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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

I have a Lush bath in my near future.

I have been mocked into going for dinner tonight. It's stunning how lame I am.

American Dialect Society has picked "truthiness" as its word of the year. Read the PDF in the entry--pretty fucking hysterical. They even have a Most Unnecessary category (K Fed).

I have 2.5 sheets of $0.37 stamps. I guess this means I'll have to go to a real post office (I normally buy online) and buy a couple three sheets of $0.02 ones in order to mail my bills out next week. Great.

I think my dear old dad may have given me a cold. Not his cold, because this isn't a cough thing like he had. This is ice-pick-in-sinus-cold-threat. Sigh.

And hey! Cute kidlets!

Now I may go lie down.

I got a great haircut from my hairdresser today. It was exactly how I wanted to turn out. I was planning to clean this afternoon, but I decided I should go out and about while my hair looked good.

I have to run to the grocery store to pick up two things, so I have spent the last 1/2 hour updating my iPod before I leave. And I wonder why it takes me a long time to do anything.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have reason to believe that the next episode of House, which I may or may not have seen (I can't say due to confidentiality agreements), is AWESOME. Freaking awesome.

You're a family of plague-carriers, sarameg.

I refuse to buy stamps online because they charge postage to deliver them. That bothers me irrationally. But I will need some 2¢ stamps, I guess. Which aren't handy to carry in my money clip.

Curses!

I have to say, the SoCal post office is FAST. I mailed my sister something on NYE, and she got it this Wednesday. In London. Pretty sweet. I don't care where I was mailing to from Michigan--it never got to its destination that fast.

Ya know...My brother's family was all plaguey at christmas. But no one caught that.

I think I need to do something to boost my immune system (oh, like exercise) because I used to have one in which a cold was something I got only every couple of years, and then not full blown. I had three last year. All following air travel, so maybe I just need a damned space suit. I'm over it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

sara, you can get 2 cent stamps online (I just bought 2 sheets myself). I have at least 3-4 sheets of 37 cent ones.

I just straighted up a hall closet and am pleased to find out that I am down to 2 shopping bags full of things to ebay (I started at 5). I also discovered a broken wardrobe hanger thingy and tossed it out, so YAY more room. The decorations and tree are coming down today. Not that I did much, but enough to fill a couple of boxes.

The to-do list I made for myself last night before bed did not get done today. Not one thing on it. I am hoping to swing by a drug store or grocery after dinner and take care of a couple of item, but that will still leave 4-5 things I'll need to do tomorrow. darn me.
