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

That's too funy, Typo Boy.

ICompletelyON, ita, you're going to tell us when Eureka is tivo selectable, right?

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

They were talking about Eureka at work yesterday. I heard it's good, but like Lost makes little logical sense sometimes. And it's on SciFi. That's all I know.

I'm tired. Washing my face sounds like a whole hell of a lot of work. Ditto on emptying out the dishwasher, loading the dishwasher with all the new things I finally got from NY (my mom's box just arrived, and like a dummy I opened it and took everything out, and now I have to find places for it all).

I wish I could just leave it all out, but I can't. Since I believe the proper term for infant felines is DESTRUCTOKATZtm.

From overheard in the office. And I don't care if this is one of the made up ones; it is still completely true:

Database administrator #1: You can either spend half a day showing them how to do it and another three weeks constantly answering questions, or you can just take half an hour and write the code for them.

Database administrator #2: Well, we should teach them how to fish instead of just feeding them every day!

Database administrator #1: You can teach them how to fish, but they still won't know how to write code.

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

My driver side wing mirror is shattered after some crap was flung up at my car while I was doing 80+ on the freeway. I am not happy.

I was happy for the four hours I was at krav, but now I remember again.

Nothing for dinner, unless you count the gatorade I had, and the blackberry/ginger ale mix I'm about to have.

Eureka is July 18th, so I think TiVo will find it on the 3rd or 4th of July.

That sucks, ita, both the no dinner and the mirror.

My passenger side mirror is totally shattered and needs replacing!

Apparently, no one can help me, and I have to call the dealer and install a whole new mirror contraption. I'm still holding out for just replacing the mirror, though, since false hope costs me nothing.

No dinner is SOP on the long krav days (5:45-9:45). I'm trying to get them to put brownies in the vending machine, but no joy so far.

My shoes for the wedding came, though, and the right one at least seems to fit fine.

Okay, I need to get hydrated and packed for tomorrow.

Hitting the gym in the AM, and then leaving work early to get to the doctor for a treadmill test and then two hours of krav.

I asked if I needed anything special for the treadmill test. No! she assured me. Comfortable shoes and tennies. Hrmmph. As if. Sports bra! Baby tee! Coincidentally enough, probably krav pants. And running shoes.

God FUCKING damn. Stupid highway with stupid things that fly at my car. I also have green paint on the bonnet, windshield, and the front left side panel.

I have to go to the dealership on Wednesday, since my brakepad warning light went on yesterday. I may see if the bumper to bumper warranty covers the plastic thing we were talking about earlier, since mine is also ripped.

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

It's a hoot, isn't it? I love the scene where his attempt at transformation goes wrong and he turns into a clown.

Great cheesy fun. Made no sense at all, of course, but that's pretty much the point.
