Shit's all sorts of different now.

I used that bitch the Green Lantern to mail my rent check.

You will love this.

Em loves to color. Usually, Joe and I get down at the table with her and draw, too. Joe always draws superheros and their emblem. He drew Green Lantern's.

Which Emeline then attacked with a yellow crayon, almost completely covering. After I finished laughing until I cried, I thought, "Allyson would love that story."

How do you make little curls?

My hair is fairly short right now and I'm thinking something retro with little curls in the back and squished down bangs for my sister's wedding. I guess I should curl it all and then squish appropriately... but how do you make the wee ones?

I still have Greta Garbo stamps left.

I think I just sneezed my brains out.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I purchased two sheets of DC Comics stamps at the Post Office, yesterday.

This makes me sad that I pay my bills online now. I should buy some, though, for cards and stuff.

But it's always fun to witness a person's first viewing--they're always so impressed and almost always say that they had no clue that a lake could be so much like the ocean. My favorite time to watch Lake Michigan is during winter storms, when the waves blow onto Lake Shore Drive and can shut down the lanes on the east side.

Coastal types always seem to be surprised that there is a thriving surf culture on Lake Superior. As Kathy points out, though, the best waves are in the winter, so that means surfers with ice hanging from their wetsuits and occasionally getting hit in the head by a big chunk of ice.

On the other hand, no sharks.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Banana. On. My. Monitor. BWAH!

Huh. For all my fretting, I was actually early to my interview. I think it went well, despite the fact that OMG HOT and I don't really know if I'd want the job should they offer it to me.

Laptop battery now charging thanks to Apple Store. Now I shall eat leftover green curry chicken and not move for a while. Ooh, TiVo!

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

Lakes can have sharks. They should totally be careful.

I need DC stamps. To go with my DC cheques. I would be the coolest person ever.

I thought lakes just had whales? Sharks too!?!?!?
