Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Art Crawl!!!

Daybreak watchers, ABC has apparently posted the new episode in the wrong order. I asked at TWOP and this is the order they say it should be in:

The correct order seems to be: section 1, first half of section 3, section 2, first half of section 4, second half of section 3, second half of section 4.

Sigh. I haven't rewatched to see if it does work right. Perhaps at lunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"48 business hours" sounds weird. Like maybe you're counting 8 hours in a business day, so a little more than a week in total. Of course that would be a wrong interpretation so... what is my point again?

Yeah, this is what one of my credit card company fraud department people had on his voicemail, and it made me nuts every time. "48 business hours?"

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

GA question-- I finally watched last week's ep, by which I mean fast forwarded through most of it, because I'm still not in the mood for bloody.

Am I the only one who giggled happily at the last scene, with Meredith?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Lee, yes. Yes you are. And you're going to hell.

Meanie.

Westminster KC Show is today and tomorrow. So, I went to look at some breed judging video and THAT ad came up. Yes - the Pedigree Shelter Dog ad.

Luckily I can ignore it. It would be undignified to start crying at my desk.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

From Nora's link, emphasis mine:

"It's the difference between a little more sophisticated guy who's governor and a guy who's still playing partisan politics after a campaign," said Grover Norquist, founder and chairman of the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project.

Yeah Grover, did you come up with that theory before or after you declared the Democratic party should be drowned in a bathtub? Also, watch out for lightning.

I don't believe you.

Meanie.

Well, yeah, but takes one to know one.

Happy birthday, Maria and Kristin!

I hope Allyson is out there reading Natter right now (or will be getting caught up here), because I heard back from my acquaintance who works at your publisher. I asked him what the buzz is at his office about "Will the Vampire People Leave the Lobby?", and he said:

It's getting good presales from the chains and we're thinking that this book might be the "sleeper" of our fall list!

Woo-hoo, Allyson!!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's so awesome! I have to figure out if I should tell people at work about the book, or if that would just bust me.

Lee, I'm with you, if not quite so gleeful.

My boss is back in the office after a week out. Things are a little... interesting this morning. Her assistant just came and bummed a cigarette off me. I've never known her to smoke. Eek.
