It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Messier and messier! Where can I file the South African ones that are attacking humans? That's the most pressing issue.

In researching this issue (they're probably Chacma baboons, or Papio ursinus, or bearboons, as I've decided to call them), I discovered that during the Napoleonic Wars, a monkey from a French warship washed up at Hartlepool and was hanged. The article states "It is unclear if the people of Hartlepool knew that it was a monkey or were merely confused as to what Frenchmen looked like." The mascot of the local football club is a monkey named H'Angus.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I think that all of McCrane's characters should be killed by vengeful helicopters.

I can't believe no one mentioned being beheaded by an ambulance.

The Alias finale cause a shuffle in my taping and I failed to get 24. Is there one more week, or was that it?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The 24 on Monday night was the finale... sorry, aurelia!

I somehow missed recording the House finale last night, but I know I'll be able to get an ahemed file from a friendly source in a day or two.

House: What else did we learn? Being House's imaginary patient is much, MUCH worse than being his real patient. Yecch!!!! I'm amazed they didn't throw in some spinal menengitis symptoms or rapidly atrophying limbs while they were throwing every squicky ailment in the book at Harpo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My dvr is rapidly filling up with Miami Vices. Thanks a lot, ita. At least there won't be new things for a while, so I'll have a chance to watch them.

It's gross, but it makes me laugh how much it grosses you out.

I forsee msbelle wearing closed toe shoes for a while.

There were a lot of stupid bags of flesh on the road today. A mom jogging with her kid in a stroller IN THE STREET when there was perfectly decent sidewalk nearby. A busy street. Guy, helmetless riding a bike in traffic, against flow, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE. Student crossing the street at a not crosswalk WITHOUT LOOKING and requiring evasive maneuvers by not one, but 3 cars.

In other stupid news, fucking hell, they are insecticiding the apartment complex friday. They do not tell me if they are using fumigants, in which case, I need to vacate the cats as well because NO ONE POISONS MY CATS. In any case, I have to fucking empty my fucking kitchen. Completely. Fuck.

I should not have left my bed this morning, I think.

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

I'm disappointed in how many things "battery" covers. Misdemeanor battery is what the krav instructor who beat up a guy in self defense was charged with, and it's the same term for licking a stranger's toes? Doesn't seem right.

I have a specific pair of shoes I want to wear today, and I can't seem to put together the right outfit for them. My black skirts don't fit when I'm at the top of my weight bracket.
