Natter 41: Why Do I Click on ita's Links?!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Do we think that ... in last night's Waking the Dead? Was it the season finale?
*I* think so. Mostly because the BBCA stuff tends to be grittier and less fantastical and
none of his different injuries looked particularly survivable, certainly not all together
.
I test drove the TSX, and it turned like a bus
This is sad. There are so few cars I think are interesting and attractive already, having one taken away for boggling performance issues is just mean. I mean, Acuras that I have driven in the past have been delightful, nimble and spunky.
IMO, bringing wine gives a message of "I'm nice!" with subtle overtones of "Let's get schnookered and make out!"
You should
definitely
bring wine.
is it bad if you put coffee grounds down a kitchen sink with a disposal?
I am told... Usually by my friends when I put their coffee grounds down the disposal. I have none, *and* I rent, what I do I know from disposal care?

Also there is a bug on the wall and no cat to chase and eat it. It's got wings and isn't within reach. I don't think I have the mad pouncing skillz to stop it. Where are my damn cats?
Cass--shoe. Shoes always work well as bug-killing instruments of death.
My cat found the Semi-Annual Big Honking Bug that shows up in my apartment a couple of times a year (always in the living room, and always as big as my thumb, if not bigger) a few days ago, and was having fun playing with it until I crushed it with a paper bag. I hated to stop her enjoyment, but all I could think about was what if it got away from her under the couch, and then reappeared on my head. Eww!
The BF suggested the Honda Accord EX V6 and the Altima.
The new car I find interesting is the Honda Fit. Inexpensive for a new car, very practical, good fuel economy, available with a stick, and I believe comes with all around airbags and anti-lock brakes standard. Not lots of power for a modern car, but enough for a stick.

But a very poor replacement for a V6 Jetta.
I'm hungry. I think someone should bring me sushi.
Shoes always work well as bug-killing instruments of death.
It got away. It was likely killable with just a tissue but I felt faster whacking the wall with my shoe. Not fast enough, cause it flew away, but still... Now I need to get the shoe scuff off of my wall. Or, you know, ignore it for a while.
Puppycat mourns everytime I kill a spider she wants to "catch" but they bite and her enjoyment isn't worth that much to me. I let her keep the gnats and she eventually eats them or loses them. Usually when they land on her nose.
Foxcast: The OC. (For people who have given up watching the show, but are too busy to read TWOP recaps! And the narrator they've got is so perfect for this job.)
Thanks, Robin. I didn't really like my Accord, though it wasn't a V6. Never even thought about the Altima..
Can I just say "Yipee!" for good days at work? Even though I've been with this company for 13 (!) years now, and in this position for more than four years, really good days are few and far between. But, due to a co-worker being out on maternity leave, they decided to teach me her tasks and let me help out, starting this afternoon. Due to being paranoid about screwing up, I got only a small fraction of the documents reviewed and entered, but the other co-worker who was training me said that I only missed one of-interest item, and caught another really important one that she probably would have missed herself.
So, for a first day, not a bad showing--yay!!
Congrats, Kathy!
Finally they said something in computerese on Waking The Dead that made sense. It's weird--so far this season they've
revisited cases from each of last season's regulars, and casting them in dubious lights.
I don't mind the premise--it just sticks out as a pattern.
