Skipping-sigh-and-poking-head to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Raq's birthday (and only, what, three days after Mal's first birthday?), so lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year are coming her way.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Near death? There have certainly been situations that had the potential to be much worse, but I've been mostly unscathed. Car story—In the car I did a spectacular spinning backwards leap over the curb landing directly between a utility pole and a streetlight with about 2' clearance on either side. Since I was going backward, I was thrown back into the seat and was fine. The car had a blown tire and a very neat 90°corner dent in one rim. Gun story—While watching tv at my last apartment there was a shootout directly outside my window. At least two guys were running away while shooting behind them. Aim was not a factor. (I'd just like to note that I did not go to the window at the sound of gunfire. I was already sitting inches from the window and saw a bit of the action as I moved away.)
I have 4 W-2s and 6 1099s. I think that makes three fewer than last year with the allowance that not all my employers are required to send me a form. Just thinking about doing my taxes makes me weary.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Happy Birthday, Raq!
I've spent the last hour submitting info about my gig to various online calendars, having to reformat several times. Bleagh. Me no want to work tomorrow.

Somebody tell the damn birds that. And my cats, who seemed particularly frantic this morning....

Cereal -- or rather Kashi Instant Oatmeal:
I may be a bit sleepy this morning. I tried to make oatmeal by pouring hot water into a bowl. Minus the actual oatmeal in the bowl.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Seriously.
And my cats, who seemed particularly frantic this morning...
This too.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Happy Birthday, Raq!
And my cats, who seemed particularly frantic this morning....
I spent my shaving-and-dressing time this morning surrounded by cats. On the bright side, I think it means that Teddy is accepting Max and Marie, and more important, vice versa.
