We need a Magic Eraser mop. I use a steamer for the tile and wood floors because I hate dragging dirty water buckets around. This isn't the exact one I have, but it looks the same. Fill with water steam away and toss the cover in the laundry. [link] It's very nice, and easy.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
Is Pete looming?
Nope. Pete is getting ready to leave the hotel and go to the M:tG event where he's the Guest Artist. *I* am lounging around the hotel room in my nightgown, taking advantage of the free wifi. Soon, I will put on makeup and call Cass. But I can pass a message to the loom-y one, if you need.
Yay Jen!
(I, uh, sorta skimmed, so hugs and ~ma to whomever needs or wants.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
women as university presidents
My univ. has a woman president, but she sucks. Blech.
Yay for Possibility Boy! And boo for math.
Thinking about Fay's lovely if heartwrenching post yesterday, do other people not have a hometown? I mean, I moved around a lot when I was growing up. I've actually lived in Chicago a lot longer than I have anywhere else. My parents now live somewhere that I never really lived. I don't think of anyplace as my "hometown."
Coffee, please.

Too funny video. Internet is for Porn [link] Visiting the google video page was a very bad idea. I'm supposed to be getting ready to go to NY for a month. Eeep. Excellent way to avoid my list though.

I picture you delivering this message with sabre-point at his Adam's Apple. This picture makes me happy
I think Epic has the right idea. Yeah!
Paul put up some of the pictures of Lillian on the 4th...
Adorable, evil, and I can't BELIEVE how big/old she is, AND that I haven't yet seen her in person. DANG.
The insurance company in Monterey decided I wasn't committed enough to underwriting to be a good fit.
Y'know, sometimes workplaces drive me nuts. It's like "If I won the lottery, would I be doing this? NO. But am I going to come to work every day and do the job right? YES. So quit asking me to tell you INSURANCE IS MY LIFE or whatever!"

Hey. New board.

Hee! Also, NY for a month is cool. Go NY!

What is even happening?
I love Cindy. Love love love.It's entirely mutual, Teppy.
Anyway. I didn't go to the hospital, at my mom's urging. She said that Grandpa was very agitated, which is getting expressed physically -- he flails and pulls out his iv tubes and tries to get out of bed, etc. She said that it's probably better if I wait until he's more settled.
Your poor Grandpa. I'm glad your mom let you know. Have you heard any more, or visited, today?

May there be good grampa news today.
In my capacity as an ex-janitor at an all girl's Catholic school, I mopped thusly.
That job description boggles me. I need more coffee.
Also, a nanny for the weekends on occasion. But, you know, that's my selfish desire to, umm, write things talking.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Your poor Grandpa. I'm glad your mom let you know. Have you heard any more, or visited, today?
I haven't heard any more, because Mom and Stepdad are camping (they don't seem overly concerned about Grandpa), and Passive-Aggressive!Aunt won't call me. So, whatev. I have a party to get ready for. I hope he's doing well. I assume that *someone* would call me if he took a turn for the worse.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I was reading my alumni magazine and I got to the section where people send in their life news (jobs, births, promotions, etc.) and came across the the BEST ONE EVER. A girl that graduated with me is now a human canonball/stuntwoman for Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey's Circus. And it says exactly that--"HUMAN CANONBALL".
Steph, have fun at the party and keep in mind that no news is probably good news.
I have cherries and they are of the yum.
