I need my eyebrows done. I look bad. Maybe birthday gift to myself?

Heck yes.

We all feel like frauds about something, right? (Right? Tell me you do, or I'm going to cry.)

I am such a fraud. Seriously. I read paperdol's essay on the subject, and just nodded like a dashboard dog.

Trust my rage

Wow, I wonder what it says about me that I feel sorry for Vino. I mean, he shouldn't have done it but it seems like they all do. I think I always liked him because he was so unpredictable and entertaining.

I totally miss the Tour. The last several years I've watched almost every stage but this year, with work and baby and no easy access, I haven't seen any.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm now picturing Cashmere with a ruler measuring out 1/8th.

I broke down and shaved them last night because I couldn't stand it. I've got six weeks to go until our trip to Hawaii, so I think I can let it grow. It's just going to drive me crazy.

I need my eyebrows done. I look bad. Maybe birthday gift to myself?

Oh, yeah! I'm getting mine done tonight (along with my hair).

But in order to make that be so, I need someone to watch Noah, because while I love Noah, I'm sure the Burke-Williams folks will frown upon his presence.

Boils down instead to me continuing to futz around the house looking bedraggled.

Random: My Dyson stopped working! I was vacuming the front room and WHAM no power. I unplugged it and put it in another socket and it still didn't work. Vacum panic is not pretty.

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

I just feel like getting caught is really dumb, so I have little respect for them, whether or not the practice is widespread. I've been told emphatically that it is, in all medium to high profile sports that can benefit from it.

I support grooming the brow! I'll be riding this one for a couple months.

Allyson, when are you getting to ComiCon? Will you be selling books there? Fans want to know...

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

Wow, I wonder what it says about me that I feel sorry for Vino. I

Actually, I do too -- and I say that thinking it was incredibly stupid to do it. There's so much pressure and insanity and fishbowl atmosphere; so many people are doing it that it seems both necessary to win and like something that's more normal than it really should be... the act is dumb, but the situation as a whole is pretty much tragic.

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

Not surprising to me, but.... OK! Goes for It!

In a surprising move, OK! Magazine says they're going to show Britney as she really was on the day of her disastrous photo shoot -- the good, the bad and the unbelievably ugly!

In an exclusive statement to TMZ, OK! Editor-in-Chief Sarah Ivens said, "OK! Magazine spent a heartbreaking day with Britney Spears and witnessed first-hand an emotional cry for help that will leave you shocked and sad. This week, on newsstands Friday, the truth will be told."

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

I want to go to ComicCon, but I cannot.

I'm scared of having my eyebrows done. Last time I looked like Joan Crawford.

The question makes me think about it - I used to feel like an imposter, but I don't anymore. Not sure why. Oh, wait - I do, but not about my job. I feel like I'm faking being a smart well-educated person.

The perfect example of this is Floyd Landis who knew, if he won, he'd get tested. IIRC, he has tested clean earlier in the race, but on the day he won, tested positive for something that didn't work so immediately. (maybe testosterone?)

eta: I'm curious what ya'll think of Lance...so much better than anyone and never tested positive for anything. Naturally gifted or just smarter than the rest? Personally, I wanted to believe he was clean, but it's a little hard to do.
