I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

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

Happy birthday Nicole!

Is it okay if I stab out my ears with my hospital id? because that would be better than trying to decifer the words on this tape. Seriously: how can you take seven minutes to get through a one-page letter, and only speed up when you get to the medical terms? That is not helpful and I don't understand!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Um, I guess the medical terms are the only words he or she really knows well and feels confident on.

Hospital IDs aren't really useful for stabbing ears anyway, I suggest a knitting needle. ::nods::

It would just be like 5x easier if they would think about what they're saying and actually sound out the words so that "enterology" doesn't come out "entymgy," which sounds more like the syntax for Ent-speak. I mean, if *I* ruled the world...

Gronk. Up half the night coughing.

And now I have to find nice clothes to wear for the next few days to distract from the suit-wearing of yesterday.

Hi Nilly! Happy New Year!

So, does anyone else think that 6:30 am is a wee bit early to be hurling verbal abuse at random pedestrians from your vehicle, even if said abuser is most likely a total asshat?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hello, ZMayBaby! Congrats to the new parents! Whee!

Nilly, happy new year! May it rock.

Frank, it's never too early for road rage!

This morning I got an email telling me one of our servers is down. Not good news, but it brightens my day to be told "Stargate is down". It's even funnier when it's the Grandpa server.

Local news is doing a piece on this mobile pet rescue unit they've got here now - more lessons from Katrina - and the newscaster just came on with this little tiny dog wrapped practically head to toe in bandages. First comment: "don't worry, Sebastian's not injured - we're just playin'". Really adorkable.
