Buffy: Dancing with you is way better than trying to hook up with some good-looking guy. Xander: I think I liked it more when you were kicking me in my puffy groin.

One of my aunts had an internalized twin. I don't know if she is a chimera.

For my fellow Marylanders, it's pretty much official: [link] Shaefer's out. Thank god.
So bleh outside, it is making me sleepy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My clothes today don't really fit. They used to, I swear. I even bought this blouse after my weight gain started. But it doesn't pass the self-hug test anymore. And is tight on the biceps. At least it's not obscene.
I wear it because I'm sad. Once I'm done, I'll relegate it to the "maybe sometime" part of my closet.
Another set bites the dust.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Tomorrow is World Hearing Voices Day, created to increase awareness about people who experience auditory hallucinations, specificallyhearing voicesin their heads. (Linkto previous post about "hearing voices.") A recent Dutch study suggests that about 4% of the population might experience this. And for those who do, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Now, University of Manchester researchers are launching a study to investigate why some people who hear voices find it positive while others' experiences are more traumatic.
Also,
A new Oregon subdivision is being modeled after Tolkien's Shire, though the developer isn't much of a Middle Earth fan (he has a friend who's read the books and advises him). He claims he's selling "finely crafted homes with a European flair."
The houses -- going for $550,000 to $850,000 -- will feature gabled roofs with faux-straw thatch made from thin strands of PVC that promotional literature says "is essentially windproof, rainproof, fireproof and guaranteed not to discolor."
Meyers has taken the liberty of renaming an irrigation canal next to The Shire as Brandywine Brook. He's happy to show off two Hobbit holes otherwise known as storage sheds.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's the voices in your head. Tell them to chill until tomorrow.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That's because that's what the voices are telling you.

There is cowbell.
There is definitely too much.
I don't even want to get into why there is any, but surely the guy holding it could tamp the clapper.
