free massages make me wary. where Jesse works = not near me.

Oh, good point. Thank her anyway, young lady.

go kiss a boy.

Maybe that's what it takes. I think it was proposing marriage that brought this nasty metallic taste into my mouth anyway.

I'm away from the board for few days and ita is getting engaged. Wow things move quickly.

I just lost my shit reading comments at a liberal site calling the Jews the new Nazis for the strikes against Lebanon.

Ugh.

Lately, I've not had much online time, and I've only got time to read one blog, usually, and it's usually been jewschool. Progressive Jewish blog, contributors from a whole range of religious viewpoints, from Orthodox to secular. For some reason, not so much there about the strikes in Lebanon -- usually, there would be a ton of stuff. I think that many of the people who run it are just getting back from a conference. Also, interesting post there about "Opposing Anti-Semitism in the Movement." [link]

My goodness my night just went insane. I was quietly watching tv and posting. Then T stopped by (muttermutter 9:30 mutter kidsthesedays.) Anywway, that was fine and was to tell me when her play performance is. I walked her home and saw Miz Louise and her g-grandson out, waiting for a cab. Stopped to talk. Waiting. And waiting. I go upstairs and call for an update. Waiting. I go upstairs, cancel it, call another company. Waiting. Finally, at 11:20, she gives up. We start walking back to the apt. She falls and I don't catch her. She's a 67 year old woman, on blood thinners, several heart attacks, bad bad knees and FALLING IS BAD. Another newish neighbor is going by with her 7 month old and we manage to get Miz Lou on her feet. Neighbor is asking questions that reassure me, as it sounds like she has some experience with this sort of thing. Anyway, we finally made it inside and made Miz Louise SWEAR to call us if anything starts hurting or she needs anything. Which, knowing her, she won't until she calls for an ambulance, but.

Good lord.

Yeah there is real anti-semitism out there. But there is also a real phenomena of labling anyone critical of Israel anti-semitic or a self-hating Jew. The latter makes the job of anyone opposing the former harder.

I'm watching Hex on BBCA and thinking "Dude! They killed Buffy!"

I didn't love Cassie. Or Ella, for that matter. Hex was...ok. I liked Thelma, but it was just...the characters seemed really 2-D, even Thelma, although she was much better drawn out than the others.

And I have a gripe about a character in Season 2, but I don't think they'ved played yet on BBCA.

I have no idea what the point of Hex is. The episodes don't seem to hang together individually, and the arc's kinda wandering.

Now this is tight scientific reporting.

Objective: This paper seeks to examine the degree to which a major aesthetic procedure affects the patient's postoperative psychosexual life.

Conclusions: The results of this study affirm that cosmetic surgery patients overwhelmingly tend to feel better about their body after surgery. The sex lives of both patients and their sexual partners can be strikingly enhanced after elective cosmetic surgery, particularly if the surgery is focused on the breasts, abdomen, and thighs.

Wired links to it with the following headline: Cosmetic surgery leads to better sex, according to cosmetic surgeons

Well, yeah, for people who have it. Which is evident from the summary on the Aesthetic Surgery Journal site.

Okay, by tight I mean "attention-grabbing" and "suited to Wired." Actually, the fact that they link to the report is pretty cool. And it's not like the blog entry is summed up by the headline either.

Clickthroughs, baby, clickthroughs.

Hmm. I've been clicking randomly through these RPG-themed unmotivational posters. So far this supremely geeky entry has given me the biggest laugh.

I want a cupcake. Can I have a cupcake? The metallic tingling's back, and I think a chocolate cupcake could fix it.

You should definitely have a cupcake. Particularly if there are sprinkles.

How come ita gets a cupcake, and I didn't?

Is it because I gave up on Hex?
