Now tagless for your comfort.
My university's women's resource center is reading The Secret for their book club. . . isn't that just wrong?
I think so. But I may be a Negative Nelly.
How much of a dork does it make me that I'm excited that I'm apparently now an approved commenter on all of the Gawker blogs?
Cool!
I'm back from my first Visual Design Theory class. The pain of having to be there for 4 hours every weekday morning at 8:30 AM will be eased because it's going to be fun neat shit with Illustrator and Photoshop and so on.
This sounds like very much fun!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Though I mostly stay on Jezebel.
I get the impression Jezebel approves anyone, so I had no idea that would mean I could comment on Gawker. Now I'm going to have to read the Commenter Executions to make sure I'm not among them. Or just not comment, which seems like the safer bet.
ita, I'm just going to say that I don't think the thing where you bite your finger to distract yourself from a stubbed toe works when the first pain is SO VERY BAD. Therefore, no need to fuck up the rest of your body for distractionary purposes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I haven't had a migraine yet today. That's a win.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
the people in the wolf T-shirts speaking Klingon and hauling Star Wars paraphernalia won't know to follow me from the airport to the convention
You can sneakily observe them from behind your business casual cloak. And judge them.

Well, OK, then. I guess you can keep the plantar fascitis.

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

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
This is several months old, but after all the Vick crap, I thought it might be good to see.
Not long after sinking a birdie putt in the Cowboys' sponsors golf tournament at Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine last Wednesday, Leonard Davis flew to his Chandler, Ariz., home and noticed a horse stuck belly-deep in mud.
Davis rescued the horse, Ranger, from the sinkhole with help of a tractor and even hosed the horse down afterward. For his efforts Davis will receive PETA's Compassion Action Award.
“Leonard might think that his rescue of Ranger was ‘no big deal,’ but Ranger - who’s doing fine - probably feels otherwise,” says PETA Director Daphna Nachminovitch. “Although Leonard is best known for letting defenses think that they just hit a brick wall, it’s his soft spot for animals in need that makes him a real hero.”

My very favorite thing about being stealth at conventions is when non-attendees start talking to me about the OMG FREAKS, and I let them go on a little before casually flashing my convention badge.

Well, since posting is light, I will note two things I learned from my two-day vacation to New Jersey. One, I advise everyone who likes amusement parks to go to ones where you can skip the line. Honestly, the Flash Pass thing at Six Flags was like $30 a person and totally worth it. Can you imagine a day with roller coasters, but without hassle and line douchebags? I CAN! I kind of want to go back right now.
Two, if you get a hotel room, rent a car, go to an amusement park, get parking and gas and have dinner all in a two day period, Citibank will flag your account, I guess, and you will come home to a call asking you to verify all these purchases. VACATION OVER.
