Jesse, I'm glad you find ways to enjoy your early mornings, even if they may be forced upon you by the cat.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
AH Jesse, my partner in up at 5:30.
The boss and I are at work (although so far I am avoiding really doing any). Several of us are in disagreement with the CEO about one aspect of a project. We are going to lose, but we are right. frustrating.
ION, hey, look, RAIN! We best have a nice weekend. That's all I'm saying.
IOON, I am wearing green today and that makes me happy. My boss is wearing orange, also happy. These are my 2 favorite colors right now.
I am actually thinking of painting the second bedroom orange, or having orange prominent.
I forwarded that Slate link to my friend in Tbilisi. Maybe she will go get some phages and report back!
ION, I've been reading CSIS essays on global trends, and am getting quite depressed. They are more moderate-to-right than Al Gore, but less optimistic. For example, they believe that human life (at least in the First World) will be extended to 120 years by 2040, if not 2025. For people my age, our dotage will be extended by another 50 years, but for Mal's age group, the whole aging process will slow.
How is that a good thing? We've too many people already, and I don't think we are psyhologically or socially set up for that.
Huh. I woke up this morning to find that I can see noticeably better in my left eye. Weird.
And it hurts a lot less, although it still looks gross as fuck.
Yay, tommyrot!
Yay for seeing better!
I mean, the vision still sucks in that eye, but I don't think I'm legally blind in that eye anymore....
woohoo tommyrot!
Oh, and my depth-perception has improved. I just noticed with excitement that my McDonalds scrambled eggs are three-dimensional!
What great news Tom! Oh yeah!
Hee, I see from the skim from last night that other people enjoyed TDS. I went to bed after the opening stuff. Too tired.
