Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I DO have ocular flu cancer

I was actually afraid of that myself yesterday, because when I woke up one eye was really puffy and the other one was fine. It turned out OK, though.

I am feeling terminally sappy cancer coming on, myself. Love Actually. And hormones. Or the holidays. Or something. Dude. I'm never sappy. This is insane.

What is even happening?

I still see no blinking text. I wonder if my firewall/ad blocker is to thank, or if I too have ocular flu cancer. If so, I'm thankful it's the non-blinking strain, because I never think it's good, either.

Turns out the blinking hoochie-mamas are a link (supposedly - doesn't seem to link anywhere for me) to another site that is required by some sort of networking group for her site to be promoted on some other main site. Or something. Maybe she can disable the blinking.

My firewall must be saving me from that.

But you, here's where I'd put a rant, except I'm too tired, so it's a rantlette. I looked up "occular" at dictionary.com before I used it the first time, because I'm never sure if it has one C or two. I typed in "occular" and it hit upon an entry (rather than the list of suggested words it gives you when you misspell) but didn't bother to read the actual. Then I saw bon bon and Jesse spell it with one C, so I looked it up, again. It hit on an entry all right, but an entry full of nothing.

See why this isn't a rant? I was out of steam before I finished. Feh.

Okay, now I'm getting a little more background. Her photographer thinks she should scrap the site and redesign more like this (the photographer's own site) [link] . Thoughts?

(Hey, it's Sunday night, y'all don't have anything better to do, right?)

I just copied off bon bon, Cindy.

No, you and bon bon were correct, and I knew it, once I saw it in your posts. I'm angry at dictionary.com for having an entry for what appears to be a misspelling. They also have regular entries for the correct spelling: ocular.

information libertarian

My SIL is really busy, so I offered to help her shop for stocking stuffers - her kids are 7 and 4. She suggested a stapler and a tape dispenser for her son, and a pencil cup to match her office depot trash can for her daughter.

Even mr. flea (whose sister this is) thinks she is clearly a huge dork. I mean, Santa brings a stapler??? I can ignore these suggestions, right? I was thinking, like, silly string and stuff.

I'd include the items she mentioned, otherwise you're in danger of starting off a big round of, "Why'd you ask?" Kids like office/school supplies.
