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

I'm watching last night's GA clip show.

I really miss this show.

That leads to stupidity and otherwise-preventable accidents.

okay, perhaps the cars themselves are not unsafe, just the people driving them. cause they do stupid shit ALL THE TIME. though apparently not in this case, as the driver was avoiding a truck that had swerved into their lane.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Which basically means everyone but us. Everyone knows Buffistas are perfect in everything they do. It's the rest of the world that causes all the problems.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I had the following people at my house tonight: tommyrot, Kathy A., SailAweigh, aurelia and Mr. Scola. I shall now sit back and bask in the glow of your jealousy.

'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"

Heh! I glower with jealousy at you!

I had Tommyrot in my dream last night, but I'm sure that's only a coincidence. He seemed to be odd man out at a slash convention, at least for part of it. Fortunately, I don't seem to remember more details than that!

Guy does sure get around, though.

Jealous? HA! Who's jealous? Maybe just a little.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I may be jealous of other people and their good times, but you can all now proceed to be jealous of me, for I was asleep before 11, and slept til 8:30! So awesome.

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

Huh.

Does that mean I'm supposed to read more slash? Or write slash?

ION,

The Indian civil service is dropping part of a new appraisal form requiring female employees to detail their menstrual cycles, a top official says.

The decision to scrap the "menstrual question" was taken after the Communist Party of India (Marxist) MP and women's activist, Brinda Karat led a delegation to meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and asked him to intervene in the matter.

He in turn directed the ministry of personnel to drop the objectionable parts of the new appraisal form, Mr Mishra said.

Correspondents say that senior ministers were embarrassed over the issue, and wanted to stop left parties from making political capital out of it.

Ms Karat described the decision as a "victory for common sense".

Annual appraisals and health checks are mandatory in India's civil service, one of the country's largest employers.

I think there's a "Communist" joke in there somewhere....

Count me among the jealous, Jesse. I was up at 6:20. Oh the joys of motherhood!
