Hmm. Everyone's sleeping. I'll just steal a post and snarl about the freaking escape attempts the inside of my face is making. This is one of the headaches that takes the heavy drugs.
Grr.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm not!
Don't tell msbelle, but I'm still kind of bouncy too.
Poor ita's head.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
no bounceing on ita's head. But if mac is bouncy Lee can take hime out and get him out of his mom's hair.

Top Chef: Geez that was lame. I don't want Marcel to still be there, but Illia's complaints were just lame.

Australian Open: I think it's cute how all the courts say Melbourne. They're not just advertising products, they're making doublesure you know where it's taking place. Which is fair--the other grand slams are more obvious. As for tonight's matches, it choked me up to see Serena's face at that second to last point--the one where she had technically won the match, but had no challenges left. I really thought she was going to choke.
Can't wait to watch the Federer match when I wake up. I had toyed with staying up for it, but that was before the vicodin/skelaxin/melatonin.

'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"
Ugh, woke up with a major headache (sinus, I think). I'm trying all my remedies one after the other, in the hopes that either one will do the trick or else the accumulated weight of the assault puts it over the top.
So far the thing that has helped the most seems to be the hot cereal. I may even make it to work at this rate.

Went to sleep last night at 6 and up 11 hours later. What is wrong with me?
Poor Mac. School is hard no matter what, but his adjustment much be even rockier.

I think there's a good chance that mac isn't reporting bullying out of fear he'd get into trouble over it, so a word in the ear of the teacher and teacher's aide (if any) might well be in order. Of course, it could also be that he fell off a jungle gym and didn't tell because of the same sort of fears, or fell running on his way home. Poor noodle!

What is wrong with me?
Need I state the obvious? I usually overlook it, but this is just too ripe for the picking.
Lee, quit bouncing on ita's head. Meanie.
Aw, poor Mac. I hope talking to the teacher does some good, msbelle.

You gotta look at the slideshow. Really, the article can be skipped. But the pictures?
