Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

sara, could we have this conversation again, soon, on a time in which I could actually participate, instead of wishing my fingers to figure out what my brain probably thinkgs but is too involved in explaining to me about the whole sleep thing to bothe phrasing? It's really interesting, and I don't want to waste it on comments like 'yeah" and "oh", you know?

Lee! I may cave in and go to sleep. If I still have a hard time figuring out the order of the ABC (I'm arranging a few dozens of references right now, and at first I typed ABS, which I think means I really indeed can't tell the letters of the ABC apart, doesn't it?). But I'm here on time to wish you a great vacation, at least, right?

[Edit: hey, the digits in my post # are in order, unlike, well, pretty much anything else, if you ask my brain. Silly brain, listen to the numbers!]

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I vote for sleep, if you can, Nilly.

Thanks for the vacation wishes!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh, and President Bush flew over me today. At least I think so. I was getting off the L when I saw two big military choppers and a bigger Chinook chopper fly overhead - apparantly heading towards O'Hare from downtown Chicago. (eta: Bush was in Chicago today.)

Once Bill and Hillary flew over me too.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Live TV is weird. It stops the show right in the middle to show these other little shows that are, like, total non-sequiturs and only about 30 seconds long and really anvilly. And it doesn't let me fast forward past them.

The sky is beginning to do a sort of "hmm, maybe black isn't my color after all" sort of thing, an "um, maybe blue is the new black?" accompanied by "this blue?" and "maybe that blue?" and a tiny bit of "oh, other colors!".

Yeah. How did cavepeople actually survive without TiVos for their television?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

"oh, other colors!"

Sometimes, if you're lucky, it does this.

Oh, my, dcp, that's gorgeous.

We don't have a single cloud in the sky here (a scorcher, again, they say), so that is especially lovely, since I hadn't seen these kinds of colors for a while up there.

And with that, I'm logging off. I have to go by the apartment, and later will be back here. Wanna place bets on whether I sleep or not? And if I do, for how long? And if I don't, how many minutes before I break anything? Oh, and there should be a bonus question there, too, only I can't think of one right now because if I do, the first thing I'll break will probably be my swindling imagination.

Night, all, I guess, right?

IF ONLY I'D KNOWN, I would have armed every non-Bush-supporter downtown with pie.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Huh. I didn't realize that Amber Tamblyn was Russ Tamblyn's daughter.
