You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I swept and raked the back yard. Swept the garage. Moved a bunch of stuff so it won't get rained on . flattend and tossed cardboard and put in the recycle bin. srubbed the bathroom top top bottom - leaner than it has been in a month. Put the xmas decoratation ( with Dh's help ) in the garage. picked up the billions of empty water bottles in the house. Installed new window blocks for all the windows. put in a load of laundry. soon I will hang up clothes.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The injury of your QB at the beginning of the game was quite a blow.

Oh, Palmer was injured? I didn't start watching until halfway through the 3rd quarter, b/c I was at the movies.

hip deep in pie

Well I only saw half of it, but it showed the essential soapy plot points of each episode, without any addition narration or scenes. Except for maybe a few vistas of Seattle.

There's nothing at all spoilery in that whitefont, unless you consider the format of the clip show to be spoilery.

There was a clip show? Huh.

I got to see my dad again today. Took him to lunch and then to the train station to go down to DC. Even though it was only a couple of hours, we got in some conversations we haven't before , like the fact he could have retired 10 years ago under the University's plan. But he isn't planning to. It's something that concerns me because I can't imagine what he'd do retired, other than drive my mom nuts and join all sorts of death-defying volunteer organizations. More than he already does those things, anyway. Well, apparently he can't imagine either (other than get OFF of the management of various projects.) I think he's sort of planning on keeping up the teaching and research as long as possible and hoping that he'll avoid being forced to make a decision by instead falling off a cliff during rescue or training! Gee, dad, thanks for that thought!

Then he told me that the wife of an acquaintance of his is still in and out of the hospital a year after falling off Winu Picchu (sp?) and breaking just about every bone in her body. 4 days before he climbed it. And then ended up helping evac a british tourist who had a bad fall.

So now I don't have to worry about my dad's retirement, I have to worry about his cliff clinging!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm drunk. I'm about to start dialing. Someone needs to stop me.

Our wings are not tired.

Dial me! Dial me!

STEP AWAY FROM THE PHONE. PUT IT IN THE FREEZER.

Ok, so that works best with credit cards, but still....

Or, y'know, call Laura.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Tom, put down the phone.

Stay here and play with us, instead
