I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

Mac = very cute.

I finally got a pedicure. My toenails are a frightening hue of pepto pink. Yet, so happy.

The Repubs are complaining about the closed legislative process that gets legislation passed, while glossing over the fact that they had a closed legislative process that got almost nothing passed, and what did get passed was mostly pork and rolling back Constitutional protections.

WhatEV.

The Naked Trucker and T-Bones show on Comedy Central.

I worked on the pilot for that. It's a little different from its original format, but still pretty funny. I didn't get picked up with the series as a) pilot crews are usually replaced when a series gets picked up, mostly because of my reason b) I already had a different job at the time.

I've come across old freestanding wooden headboards in antique malls all over.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Overstock.com has a few, like this one: [link]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Hil, have you checked out Pier 1?

They sell just headboards, or both if you like.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oooh, that one looks nice, Jesse. It even almost goes with the rest of my furniture, style-wise. (My furniture is a mix of IKEA, hand-me-downs from various relatives, and two antique bookcases and a nightstand I inherited from my grandmother. They kind of end up working together, though -- the wooden stuff is all different styles, but all cherry or oak (or cherry-veneer) and all relatively simple and angular. The fabric stuff is all different colors, but I found a bedspread that's got stripes in just about every color that's in my couch and chairs, so it worked out.)

The Goodwill and antique shop suggestions are good, too. I think I'd rather go with somewhere that'll deliver, though, as I'm carless.

In "This Day in Technology" (from Wikipedia):

1983 - Apple Computer introduced the Apple Lisa, their first commercial personal computer with a graphical user interface and a computer mouse. It had 1 MB of RAM, and was priced at US $9,995.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Also from Wikipedia:

In 1989, Apple buried about 2,700 unsold Lisas at a landfill in Logan, Utah and got a tax write-off on the land they rented for it.
