Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

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

I spit on your false dichotomies.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Cilantro.

Hee. I see your cilantro and raise you the correct pronunciation of pecan.

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

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

Those whos names start with the letters A-K and those whos names start with L-Z.

Prince in the mid-1990s would have begged to differ...

The status is NOT quo.

I am chilly this AM. Getting ready to go to breakfast. I need to figure out what, except for yoga, i'm doing today.

I think you should come teach my ninth grade classes.

I forgot to go to sleep last night, until about 1:30, for the second or third night in a row.
Lee is me, only make that 3AM. I think it was mainly stress, but this morning was not pretty.
Hate it when I do that.
Me too.

Right. Because in the case where you'd use "which" to refer to an animal or thing, you'd use "who" to refer to a person. That's not a which/that distiction.

Actually… t puts English teacher hat on the Modern Language Association says that it is fine to use “that” for people now. Yes, it sounds impersonal and dehumanizing and isn’t a choice I would usually make, but it is technically (grammatically) correct.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My dad always tells me stories about how their milk cow would get into a patch of wild onions and that was the WORST tasting milk he'd ever had. Not only was their milk unpasturized, it was pretty much unrefrigerated because they didn't have electricity (kept the milk in the well).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Mac, Diet Coke, boxers.

Windows, Coke, briefs.

Do we need to throw down? I'll let it go if you will.

Bring it, science-writer guy! I'll edit you until you beg for mercy!

....that *is* what you meant, right?

t runs away

Unrelated to me kicking P-C's ass fiercely editing P-C's writing....

Is it just me, or did Ugly Betty jump the shark last night?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

so apparently i'll be in San Francisco April 2nd through the 7th or 8th. my sister's company is having a conference and she wants to go, but she doesn't want to go alone and she really wants to bring the kids. so 2 of those days will be spent baby-sitting, but the rest will be all of us trying to find things to do.

there's quite a few Bay Area-istas, aren't there? what should i do while i'm there? Alcatraz, is obvious. as is the Golden Gate Bridge, but what else? i've never been. i'm kind of excited...yay NorCal!
