Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

SA, happy birthday!

Zenkitty, it's not that far a drive. IJS

ooo. mmm. Really?

Passing vehicles said they did not stop to help because they thought it was a domestic disturbance.

If it's one guy, yeah okay maybe. But "robbers" plural? They saw two or more guys pulling a struggling screaming woman out of a car, and they thought it was domestic? No they didn't; they just didn't want to get involved. People suck. That little boy, though, rocks. What a brave, smart kid. He should get a medal or something. SOmebody rich should offer to pay his college tuition.

I miss looking out the back door of my house in rural Pennsylvania and seeing the deer wandiering around in the morning mist. I miss fireflies, too. And whipoorwills.

Yeah. And bullfrogs. I used to lie in bed at night and listen to the bullfrogs. So soothing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

feel the need for Ron/Hermione now.

Um. I'm kind of stumped by that one.

Me too, only in CT. It's been so nice to be surrounded by them again.

Anyone else see the (I assume) final episode of Traveler last night?

They came really, really close to wrapping things up in a halfway decent manner, and then they had the stupidest final scene in the history of ever, and ruined everything.

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

If anyone is looking for an X-mas/Solstice/b-day gift for me, here's something to consider: [link]

From time to time you'll see one of these on eBay....

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm kind of stumped by that one.

Why stumped?

I'm being very careful about I read and where I find it. I promise!!

I'm kind of stumped by that one.

I am pretty sure I have never gone looking for it.

OK, I live in a scary ass place.

There have been three fires in the hills around me so far this year--and that's just the ones I can see out my windows. People have died in this state from wildfires so far this year, and it's damned hot and dry. The governor has asked for a ban on private fireworks for the upcoming Pioneer Day festivities, ie, supposed to be a celebration of the Mormons arriving but is really an excuse for hootin' and hollerin' and blowin' stuff up.

I was just reading some news commentary on that proposal, and I'm expecting to see Paul Revere riding by shouting To Arms, To Arms! Maybe some barricades across some streets with people waiving their personal pyromania materials and shouting defiance. We have the right to blow stuff up! Lightning causes more fires than fireworks! How dare you infringe on our rights, you intrusive Communistic Liberal Big Government, you!

My god, people, the state is a tinder box! "Of course it's dry and a fire hazard, it's always like this" is not an argument in favor of playing fire Russian Roulette like normal! Really, they're saying "It's only a few irresponsible people who burn down houses and set the west mountains on fire, I'm a very responsible pyro and my liberties should not be infringed upon."

I'm waiting for someone to say, "Hey, I'm a very safe driver when I drive 100 mph on the freeway, that speed limit infringes on my liberties." Oh. Wait. I have seen that commentary. Last week, on the car pool lane story.

And to think these people don't even have beer to blame their idiocy on.
