speaking of libraries. did I tell you Nancy Pearl is going to speak at my library?
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.
[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 boys have gone to a football game so I will have peace and quiet to watch SciFi stuff. Whee!

It is fairly warm today but it still time for chili and apple crisp.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Yay Carrots! And also, yay wallets!
I borrowed some books from the kids section of my library when I was researching my tattoo. (They turned out to be a terrific picture resource.) Perhaps it was just the Learn Exciting Historical Stuff section, but all the books I grabbed were either sticky or outright slimey. Luckily the ones I needed were only sticky. But even so, I had to wash my hands every time I looked through them. But what can you do? Wee fingers go up wee noses or in wee mouths, and then they touch the books. And I definitely want to encourage them in the grabbing the books part of the equation.

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 beats Lutherans.
Only if they ask pretty. And use a safeword.
Awwwww... The L Word and The Boy.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Trudy, did you get my follow-up e-mail? I have this fear that Gmail is selectively cyber-shredding my e-mails.

Thrive to spite them
YAY for Teppy and her Boy!
Our library system is really good and has great programs for teens -- including Manga Mondays. Which means they have a great selection of manga and graphic novels/trades but there's usually a waiting list.
I had bad stuff/good stuff/iffy stuff happen. First going down to the parking lot I tripped and fell on gravel, luckily I was wearing pants so the damage to my knee isn't too bad. Then I got my first new paycheck with the raise earlier than expected! Unfortunatly way more taxes than I expected are being taken out because of the raise. It looks like more will be taken out each week than was taken out in 1 two week paycheck. Maybe I filled out my w4 form wrong or something. So it looks like instead of having a raise with a nice cushion to live on, if I stay at this job with the increase in my health insurance I'll be stuck at living by the skin of my teeth.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mom just called to vent about things that are Not Me. Then I mentioned my finger stabbing last night.
"I know they are called finger sandwiches but you don't put actual fingers in them."
Mom is fun-knee. And a brat.
