See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

shrift, your doing nothing all weekend sounds like a whole damn lot to me.

I did manage to do two loads of laundry, and then -- this is what makes me feel all totally accomplished and shit -- I scampered down to the Embarcadero last night in time to hug Anne W. before her return to St. Louis! Which was a whole huge exhausting to-do, because I thought I wouldn't be able to meet up with her, then Hec's jumbled schedule un-jumbled mine and I realized I would after all, except I couldn't reach Anne or deb or Suzi or beth or her DH, and I had to call Lee and ask her to call people and try to figure out where they were and if I could get there.

But I did, and all was well. Anne continues to look amazing in her longish slightly angled bob and was totally sweet (if a teeny bit nervous) with Matilda -- she used the same hold on Matilda she does on her cats, and it turned out, since Matilda is also a small mammal, just fine. Matilda stared and stared at Anne's glamourous face quite a bit (until she got distracted by some twinkly fairy lights outside and then fell asleep). Beth's DH took many, many pictures, and possibly he or beth can be prodded into posting them.

Also, deb pressed a very yum fried artichoke heart on me, and then Anne pressed some highly yum pesto pasta on me, and I went home all sated and ready to deplete myself at the next feed.

Which didn't happen until 1:30 a.m.! Go team sleeping baby!

Off now to work. Actual, worky, all day work. Bleh.

There are four new episodes of Daybreak up at the ABC site.

Good luck at work, JZ!

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

Ooh, thanks sumi!

It might be cheaper to just convert cash to Canadian dollars and burn those for warmth.

Loonies and toonies don't burn all that well.

I also burned a bunch of DVDs, edited code, did the dishes, read fic, and watched two episodes of MythBusters. No wonder the weekend went by so quickly.

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

Am sending an email to a Ms. Bligh. I almost addressed it to "Ms. Blight."

Good thing I double-checked.

I'd be more likely to send it to Capt. Bligh.

I keep accidentally typing, "I resent your password." I'm pretty sure that I don't actually resent the passwords for needing to be reset.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm not even supposed to be here (at work) for another 6 minutes, and I'm already bored.

Freudian slip? Repressed childhood password-related trauma?
