Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Listed under random: Have you all seen Kanye West's video for Can't Tell? [link] It's so made of the awesome. As are the comments. It's just so... random.

Oh, Galifinakis! So awesome.

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

Is this different from your question a while back? I thought I'd accidentally clicked on a closed natter or something.

Yes it is.

I think.

I can't see the video, but the comments are ...odd.

Happy birthday, dear Kat. I promise I won't sing that.

Obesity is contagious.

Can I blame my fatass cat (as opposed to the fact I really do need to exercise more)?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Grr. I was supposed to have an interview yesterday. They called in the morning and postponed it today. Now they have called again to change the location (to a location rather less convenient for me). I am not impressed right now.

Well, I'm leaving on Wednesday. Not ideal timing for getting friends to help!

I feel Emily's pain. Sadly, I am on the opposite side of the country from her, but I am moving on Tuesday. (Not to Virginia.) I feel that I deserve an infinite time-expanding device, as well as some steroids.

Not to mix two conversations excessively.

Hey, since this company has dicked me around, and since I'm now having a job interview in a Starbucks by the airport, can I wear dress pants instead of a skirt?


sarameg - Jul 26, 2007 7:05:04 am PDT #288 of 10001

I'd say so. Man, that might make me leery.

Pants should be fine, Dana.

It is a nice Starbucks. Ironically, I've had a job interview there before.

I suspect the reason is because the person interviewing me is out at a client site, and many of those big companies are located out by the airport.

But I still really want to wear pants.

Wear pants.

I know what's wrong with my toner question. I don't use toner. It's two cleansers, one soap, one dabbed with a cotton ball. Mask between those two, or after?
