One time I was staying at a friend's parents' house during a thunderstorm, and didn't realize I was sitting in the dog's seat on the sofa until he jumped up in my lap and tried to hide behind the pillows. Now, this was a German shorthair, so not a small dog. It was hilarious.
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now you will have to punish it by eating it, Lee. It's the only way.
It's a dirty job...

Damn, sorbet is dangerous.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Now you will have to punish it by eating it, Lee. It's the only way.
I think you are very right.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
That's really more execution than punishment. Unless you only eat half. Then what remains can warn the rest of the frozen goods of their fate if they attack.
Of course, it's futile; you're eventually going to eat them all anyway. Might as well go on and finish off the sorbet.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Flickr doesn't do video, so I've posted some pix from the KC airshow on Photobucket: [link]
It was a nice day, not too hot, with a little breeze. The Harriers really stole the show. This was the first time I've ever seen (or heard) one up close.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Ooh, Cashmere - you're going to Hawaii? That sounds exciting!
Yup! Less than two weeks to go. Kids are staying with my sister.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
How is it that I can get FX just fine, but BBCA cuts in and out? I swear Comcast hates the British.
Pantsy Arse-fuckers.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, fuck. My dad called a little while ago -- one of my cousins (we're not super close, but they're all pretty nice people, and this one threw a baby shower for Matilda and me about a year ago) is getting divorced. Three kids, one entering high school and twins in grade school, and they're all moving in with her parents at her old childhood house in the East Bay. Which is sad, but not the worst part; the worst part is that her soon-to-be-ex is an Orthodox priest, and she found out he'd been cheating on her with at least one member of the congregation, and he's now resigning from the priesthood and there's an article in the local paper and it's not just sad, it's gonna be a big public mess. Fuck fuck fuck. Their poor kids! Poor her! Shit, I don't know who to feel worse for. And I want to punch him in the head. A lot.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
What an awful situation. And he's clearly in need of at least a punching in the head, which would actually be getting off light.
