I mised the Tonys, due to unscheduled toddler faceplant off a chair and associated trauma, including tooth worries (seems okay, though), but let me belatedly say that my old college friend Sarah Jones won a special Tony for her one-woman show and I am so proud! I hope she wore something nice. And I won't see her this summer because I can't go to the wedding we're both invited to because I have to have a damned baby instead. Pout.
Ooh, there she is (apparently in character...): [link]
They announced Sarah's Tony, but I don't think they showed her acceptance. (eta: or maybe they did because now I remember she talked about Meryl Streep)They did show some scenes from her show that I remember more clearly. Yay! (I was so tired but had to stay away and watch)

Not fun. Now Trudy's weekend sounded like fun. I worked. We shall not speak of it again.
ION, they just showed another update on Spirit and Opportunity. Still finding those Rovers amazingly rocking cool. Smarty pants teams did real good there.
It's supposed to be partly cloudy and low 70s here today. I'm really tempted to play hooky but I shall attempt to be Strong.
My cat-bitten finger is a bit ouchy, but doesn't look threatening. The nail is particularly sensitive -- I've probably got some swelling under the nailbed. I can type OK, though....

Tommy - I feel the same way about the name. Makes me wonder if people were all eyerolly about the "Statue of Liberty" at the time.
It's even more eyeroll-y than that: its Official Name is Liberty Enlightening the World.
I am trying to determine an itinerary to my brother's wedding that doesn't include random 20-hour layovers in Beijing or Canton. It's difficult, especially since Sidestep.com doesn't appear to handle multi-stop trips. WTF?
Consuela: if you use Expedia and select "Mutiple destinations" under Flight Type, you can specify up to five intermediate stops, if that helps.
Okay, so I made little gift bags for first day of shooting for Tim and John.
Awesome. I need an Allyson.
sara, what on earth is this??
Seriously. Quilted eelgrass (third to last paragraph.)
Mrph.
Cool beans (or grass), sarameg! (My house has real horsehair plaster in the walls, c. 1900) Ya learn something every day!
I'm still waiting to hear if they have anything for me to do in QA this morning. Waitwaitwait.

Heh, I know they have something for me to do, but I'm waiting for the code. Waitwaitwait.
I'm waiting for the code.
Psst: Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene.
I'm waiting for a very irritating woman to contact me. After months of me saying, "I need to have someone look over this, I'm not an expert, I need to have a trainer tell me if this is realistic," she sent me a snooty e-mail in which she informed me that "we are pretty far apart" in terms of her expectations and my results.
Also, she talks in cliches and buzzwords.
