Awww.

In the meantime, here's a handy illustration of knots and how to do them:

Because books.

Happiest of birthdays, megan! I hope it's full of good things.

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?

Happy birthday, megan!!!

And, happy anniversary, Zmayhems!!

David Boreanaz is on The View today. I kept thinking that he looked so tan and healthy! I'm used to the paler look.

Punishingly Intricate

A flea collar usually indicates that someone cares about it, so let's hope it's reunited with its person soon.

I really hope so!

Anybody else listening to Diane Rehm? Gingrich was on and left 3/4s of the way through unexpectedly and she was FURIOUS. I usually can't stand her but she's pretty awesome when she has her fury on.

I'm very sleepy and deeply, pathetically bored.

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

Why did Gingrich leave?

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

Happy birthday, Megan E!

Happy anniversary to the Zmayhems.

I hate it when a voicemail comes in just moments after I duck out a hair early because I'm feeling under the weather. I guess I should either learn how to check it from home, or how to stop feeling guilty and self-conscious. Both seem equally momentous right now.

On the other hand it is pleasant when work disappears itself off your plate. I'm slowly getting the hang of that around here. Problem is, it also appears itself onto your plate. You just have to be wary.

Allyson, I just noticed that there is a Blooker (har de har har) prize for books based on blogs. So you should totally blog in advance for your next book to make yourself eligible for the $10K.

How to Tie the 10 Most Useful Knots

But I don't know what they're useful for! Boat, bondage, ad hoc sails, ad hoc sailors...it makes all the difference in the world.

I wasn't really listening so I'm not sure. I think he just said he had another obligation even though he'd told her producers he'd be available for the whole hour. He conveniently left before she opened the phones.

Wanker.

Does Whoopi Goldberg have a radio show? This morning I was listening to a talk show, and it sounded like Whoopi Goldberg. She said they'd be having Gingrich on later that morning.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Megan!

Happy Anniversary to Hec and JZ!

Woke up this morning to find my left eye completely bloodshot, and the upper lid puffed up. Saw an opthamologist(not the guy I'd seen before, since he was out of the office, but someone recommended by the first guy's office) and found out I have pinkeye. Is it any wonder I went home after getting my prescription filled, rather than going back to work?

Oh, and the cold is still here.
