I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Woke up at 1. in bed at 11, up at 1 - Good times. Even the cats were knid and let me put off their feeding until 9 (normally 6-6:30).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I just saw a stealth B-2 bomber fly over NYC. Very disturbing.

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

In bed around midnight, up at 8:09. Now, my alarm was to have woken me at 7:30, because I needed to be out of the house at 8:30. I changed the setting--I just forgot to turn it on.

Turned out okay anyway.

Sadly, acupuncture has had little effect on either my headache or my finger.

Ah, well. Off to teach. And then maybe the errands I've been putting off for weeks.

I got up early for a weekend! Haircut, now eating a a&w cheeseburger. Weather is kinda shitty for doing stuff outside, so I think I may do laundry and clean.

As I was leaving, I heard a teeny bit about this and figured I'd just heard wrong. Nope: the fucking fuck!?!

Dear crazy fucks,

Leave my hometown alone. You are so lame.

Me.

"I love their text! It just has so much sub."

Well, sarameg, knowing is better than not knowing.

George Clooney may have been across the street from Trudy, but *I* was ten feet away from Pierce Brosnan and Liam Neeson!!

At once? Dude. My pants would have been SUPER porny...

Yep, at the same time--they were in the airport, checking in for a flight (as was I, but different flight sadly)

The Swedish are kinkless? I didn't know this.

The Swedish drag kings I know are mostly pretty kinky seeming...

I've heard the reason that homely guys are used in porn is because they use whoever has the ability to get it up on command and fuck all day for the multiple takes, and that's just a limited pool of guys to start with.

But now with Viagra they can get the hot guys? Huh.

One of these days, Northern Virginia will seriously contemplate becoming its own state. The political beliefs and issues facing this region are completely opposite from the rest of the commonwealth, and have already caused serious strife in Richmond

I wish. Maybe we could get them in with DC and have some representation on up in here...The anti-unions bill in Virginia is SCARY--it's hard core.

Is there such a thing as a shoe kink which does not rise to the level of fetish?

Maybe if you notice a girl's shoes, and notice her because of htem, and think they're hot, but you're not like, buying her shoes to wear, and asking her to wear them in bed or anything? Like once she takes them off, you're still all about the girl?

Also? Fried mac and cheese on teevee? GROSSER THAN FUCKING GROSS! Only CSI has made me rush for the toilet faster

Really? It makes me really want mac and cheese!!!

and maybe go to the Chester Beatty library just around the corner, which is a huge collection of Asian artifacts and also, free!

SA!! I highly recommend the Chester Beatty library, it's really really neat!

I'm more just incredulous. I mean, trying to get money from the city council? Why don't they just ask for a personal rocket to Mars, it is as likely. It's just so...podunk. These individuals have already proven they don't really think too big. I mean...Cruces? If it weren't such an evil threat, and the local police so poorly considered, I'd be laughing.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

SA!! I highly recommend the Chester Beatty library, it's really really neat!f

Well, I *meant* to go, but we ended up walking arouns Stephen's Green and going to see the Black Dahlia at the IFI. But I'll go tomorrow! really!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

This morning I got a massage at a local day spa, then went to a nearby shopping area(Kentlands, for those in Montgomery County) for lunch and look for the crafts show that allegedly was happening there. As it turned out, I found no trace of said show. Since the only mention of it was on a flyer that got thrown out, I guess I'm not surprised.(I did go into the PetSmart and cooed over the kitties available for adoption)

Now? Now I'm watching the Red Sox-Yankees game.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

REALLY COOL video of a vampire squid.
