Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely start keeping a work-journal, but hopefully it won't be an issue for my future shifts. What a great experience.
JZ, you sound really cute today.
Wait. People? She eats people? 'To Serve Man.' It's 'To Serve Man' all over again.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

JZ will be happy to know that I just pinged Kim and she said there will be a gothy tinge to her wedding proceedings, and suggested Jacqueline might need a parasol. Also the wedding will take place surrounded by boxes of carniverous plants.

What is even happening?
I can do that here.
With air conditioning. For New England vacations, it goes like this:
Winter:
- White Mountains of New Hampshire (and some of the range reaches into Maine)
- Green Mountains of Vermont
Spring:
- Anywhere, but bring an umbrella (stay out of the way northern areas until June)
Summer:
- Coastal Maine
- Coastal New Hampshire
- Coastal Massachusetts (particularly Cape Cod & the Islands)
- Rhode Island
- I don't want to leave CT out, but I don't generally go there, so I'll say Coastal CT
Fall
- Anywhere, but particularly the NH and VT mountains, and the Berkshires (western MA). Stay out of the more northern and mountainous areas after Halloween.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Have you the brain worms?!?
::checks Tricorder::
Now wait....Zim brain worms or Futurama brain worms?
Duh, Zim.

Duh, Zim.
The brain worms say, No, they are not in my brain. Not at all.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Sigh. Futurama has brainslugs and Zim has brainworms. Get with the program.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Huh. In running excitedly all over the 'net looking for a replica of an incredibly cool square silk parasol I saw in a vintage fashion newsreel, I came across this auction.
Somebody who's more designer-knowing than me, please explain? I mean, I know that Louis Vuitton is a very schmancy, high-tone designer and la la la and all that, but still. It's an umbrella. No matter how I try, no matter how many analogies to 17th-century Shakespeare octavos and mint condition Stradivarius violins I make, my brain still hits a speed bump on Umbrella and Opening Bid: $1,350. And then my brain falls into a ditch and lies there spinning its wheels helplessly.
Does this actually make sense, or does it just get filed under Rich People Are Totally Fucking Loony?

Compassionately intolerant
Sweet weeping Moses. An umbrella? Yes, the rich are different.
Hey JZ, I'm in the market for some new, interesting parasols myself. Do you have any favorite outlets? All I can get around here are the laquered paper jobbies...the colors of which don't always suit me.
