You know, the shoes is a good guess. I run on a treadmill and haven't increased by *that* much week-to-week, but the shoes are getting a little old.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Earth Surrounded by Giant Fizzy Bubbles
The article fails to mention if they're the effervescent or scrubbing varieties.....
The space above you is fizzing with activity as bubbles of superhot gas constantly grow and pop around Earth, scientists announced today.
Astronomers found the activity up where Earth's magnetic field meets a constant stream of particles flowing out from the Sun.
While space is commonly called a vacuum, in fact there is gas everywhere, albeit not as dense as the air you breathe.
The newfound bubbles are technically called density holes. In them, gas density is 10 times lower. The gas in the bubbles is 18,000,000 Fahrenheit (10,000,000 Celsius) instead of the 180,000 degrees Fahrenheit of the surrounding hot gas, which is known as plasma

How do Druids brush their teeth?
If my history teacher was correct, with stale urine rather than toothpaste. Though I guess the very act of brushing was better for teeth (if not breath freshness) than a lot of people's habits at the time.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Seriously, what is up with today? I finished all the work I could do on my own without anyone else's input about 20 minutes ago. I'll have about 2 hours' worth of work eventually, but that may not be until this afternoon. Then my boss is gone for 3 days, then he's back for a week, and then he's gone for the entire month of July. It's nice that they're paying me and all, but I am SO FREAKING BORED.

Those wacky Druids.
There needs to be a sitcom, where a family takes in a Druid boarder in order to save money. Nonstop wackiness!

We had a Stonehenge set that was in danger of being trampled by a fuckin' garden gnome.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I knew I was forgetting something in the garden planning!

Clever.
Instead of doing my billables, I'm using my free time today to read Lingua Franca. [link] God, that was such a good magazine. Reading academics writing in the nineties is hilarious. What, exactly, is "a person of gender" supposed to be?! (OK, I know that it's supposed to be a woman. But it's also interesting to read back when the same culture war division wasn't called "red state" and "blue state" but rather revolved around "politically correct.")

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Any of you people with free time want to figure out what I will need for the next 6 weeks and how to fit it all in my car? I used to have it down to a science, but that was before I had a rather large cat carrier to include.
