Good things about today: Got into a real good groove with writing. Just a bunch of good raw stuff that I can fiddle with for a while. Leftover Chinese Food. EM wanted this Friday off from her regular schedule so she traded me Tuesday (today), which gives me an unexpected three day break from commuting.

Watching Breakfast Club on tv. It's wrong like a wrong thing what they did to the dialog. Dubbing over the swearing is one thing--but the freak-ass phrases they decide to change make me ill. You can't say, "wet dream" on tv? It's not even network--it's WE, so it's basic cable.

Apparently, I've had a GIANT FUCKING INKSPOT on my mouth for about an hour and a half
Quit chewing on your pen, bon. Heh.

Did someone offer to email me a sample invoice for billing hours for contract work? I need a good one to send.

What is even happening?

Scott won't even watch movies where that's been done to the dialogue. I might possibly watch Breakfast Club in a foreign language, or mime, so I'm sort of biased.

Best part of today was glorying in the oracle deck I've been searching for, for six years (sheesh!), that Beverly found for me here. I was going to put off buying it, just content to know where to find it...and that I was not insane in remembering it (after a while of searching, you begin to wonder). But Fela heard me talk about it...and bought it for me! I've been mooning over the incredible illustrations all day.

Sunscreen: Mexoryl. Blocks UVB and UVA. Now available in the US, so I don't have to illegally import it from Canada anymore.
I'm in love with Vichy SPF 60. It has mexoryl and it really works. Lancome used to have a tinted SPF 40 that had Mexoryl and was wonderful, btu then they changed their sunscreen line.
My good thing for the day was that my co-worker came over and offered me a ride home after work because it was raining and windy and I was horribly underdressed for the weather.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I don't generally watch movies on channels that edit for time or content. Kinda limits my options, when I don't have free Starz like I do now.

Has anyone heard of "Pants Off Dance Off" on Fuse? It's freakin' HI-LARIOUS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The theory I have come up with is that they dubbed it back in the day when it was first going to be aired on TV, and the standards were different then, but they haven't gone back to re-jigger it.
Best thing about today: the quarts of beer in styrofoam cups they had at the bar I went to after work.
