I'm not too keen on the disappearance of all incandescent lighting myself. Not that I paint that often, but for some portrait work and still lifes I like the warm glow from an old-style lamp rather than the skin-greying harshness of flourescents.
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, Tom!
Man, this work+krav thing is killing me. I mean, for at least as long as I refuse to post from the work network. So much catching up to do, so little time to post.
Okay, off to fall asleep watching 24.
Sara! Did you like last week's Unit? I was pretty sure that the coin was going to disappear, since god forbid they have a large shift in circumstance, but it still annoyed me.

Reveal Codes was THE SHIT.
That's where that was! I miss that constantly, but never remember where I actually had it, just that I should have it everywhere that I don't.

Dude, how cool is Erin? (Have bookmarked.) And how drunk am I? Almost as drunk as Erin is cool, is the answer. Off I go bedward now.
(Just a word of warning: "Bookmarked"? Hard to type when you're this many sheets windward.)

I miss Reveal Codes too. In fact, I used to fantasize about how useful it would be if you could use Reveal Codes on people.
bon! WordPerfect is totally intuitive. It's Word that's whackass.

I need to get the garbage out. And I remembered that I may have skipped a drawer in my old cubicle that needs to be packed. Why is being unemployed so much work?

Eek. 125 Jackson Hewitt franchises being investigated for tax fraud.
If you haven't yet done your taxes, I suggest going elsewhere. If you used them, I'd give the return a once-over while you have time to amend.

Oh dear, that's like H&R Block being audited, isn't it?
