I have the dumbest snippet of a song batting around my head. What's annoying me is not that it is rolling around my head, it is that it is the misheard version I can't dislodge. The actual line is "going against your mind" except I'd been hearing it as "going to Chennai" until fairly recently and so that is what is stuck.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I woke up this morning (the first full day of my layoff) and immediately thought of various tasks at work that I had to do... then remembered it's not my responsibility any more.

I felt the same way the next morning as well, Theo. I think I woke up that way off and on for about a week. It is kind of fun, in a completely vindictive way, to think about all the little things that are going to trip them up when you're not there to do them, though.

Sorry to hear about your job as well, Nutty.

My close calls so far have all been getting out of immediately dangerous situations unscathed, rather than chance keeping me away from those situations. Either way, there's certainly a feeling of there being a lot of luck involved.

Oh, and since I missed the official announcement, congrats on job-having, ita!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yep. And all the stupid things you didn't want to do anyway... and now don't have to!

...it's been a while since I've told a story where the phrase "and then some dude pulled out a knife" appeared. I am not ita, so I think I'm okay with that.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Isn't it freaky? I followed it all last night and some early this morning.

Well, no weapons, thank God. Mostly vehicular stupidity on the part of others.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

this is cheering:

This is beyond cheering. This is the kind of thing that could make a real difference with a lot of people.

I was in Centennial Olympic Park about an hour before Eric Rudolph set off the bomb, but most of my other near misses are pretty pedestrian.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The tub guy is back today. His helper is actually helping, but apparently, when he doesn't need the helper? The helper stands out by the truck and plays the guitar.
