Pamela has us watching What Not To Wear. I would like to strangle these people. I kinda like the soon-to-be-teacher girl though. I'm hoping she sporks the hosts.

Why does CSI always bring the EWwwww?

Why is it sooo hard to keep my eyes open, and why am I still fighting it?

and why am I still fighting it?

I cannot believe they've made another getting a scary call from inside the house movie.

I think that's a remake of the original one, from the late 1970s/early 80s, IIRC.

Someone is sitting in a car, honking the horn every 10 or 20 seconds. For the last ten minutes. This has happened before (once it went on for half an hour).

tommyrot, a few weeks ago, we had some unbelievably drunk idiot pass out in his car at 3am with the car alarm engaged. Every minute to three minutes, when he would move around inside the car, the car alarm would go off. Loudly. This went on for an hour before we called the cops on him.

Oy. The guy who runs the instructor program hasn't had a chance to call my GP yet. "We're wasting valuable training time here!" I squealed.

Double oy. One of the uber-senior instructors came over to me and shook my hand. Which, you know, social occasion, so okay. "I heard your doctor..."
"Physical therapist."
"Whatever came to the centre and said you couldn't train and then you cancelled all your appointments."
"Well..."
"I have two things to say to you. One, you're an idiot." t wince "Two, I respect you greatly." t unwince? "I just had to say both."

Definitely an unwince.

Nilly, your questions a couple of weeks ago made me realize what I should talk about tomorrow at my grandma's memorial. Thank you.

I cannot believe they've made another getting a scary call from inside the house movie.

It's a remake, so it's not so much another one as the same one again, if that helps. I love that they put the "The calls are coming from inside the house" line in the freaking ad, though. Because I can believe there are people who haven't heard of it, but... if you go in knowing that, isn't the movie going to be a bore?

Around 9, I realized I was too tired to stay up and watch Galactica, so I set the DVR and went to bed. And I guess I really was tired, because when I woke up I was completely disoriented. I sorta realized I was awake, and then I couldn't figure out if the alarm had gone off and I'd hit "doze," or if I'd woken up before the alarm went off. Then I tried to figure out what day it was, and decided it must be Friday, so I tried to decide what I should wear to work. And finally I remembered, "Wait, I set the thing to record Galactica, so it must be Saturday! Yay! Except that means it's probably only 3 AM and now I'm awake." Which was in fact the case.

If I can stay awake till 9, I can go run errands and take a nap later today. I'm not sure how likely that is. This pointless story has been brought to you by sleep deprivation.

"I have two things to say to you. One, you're an idiot." "Two, I respect you greatly." "I just had to say both."

Yay! Good to see some understanding.
