If all of us do it, maybe we can make it grown-up behavior.
Good plan!
You're never too old for a pillow fort.
YAY
Sorry, Sparky-- your way seems like too much work.

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.

Yeah, no, not that, Jesse.
Still in the process of resuming work.
At least Lee seems firm in her opinions.
The official name for calico is tortoiseshell with white.

See, it's clear when you put it like that.

Pfft. Just see if you get a seat in my fort.
huh ... I always used tortoiseshell to mean the ones that are varying shades of brown/tan/gold - tweedy, as Susan put it - and calico to mean lots of white with black and orange patches (they're almost always female).
In completely unrelated news, my office is miserably hot and humid, even with a fan going. bleah.
x-posted from Technology, because I want as many opinions as possible:
Someone tell me if I'm in danger from my apartment. I turned on a lamp, and the bulb blew out with a bright blue spark (fairly new bulb), at the same time my APC unit beeped, and my computer shut down but didn't turn off. When I tried to shut the computer off, the APC beeped again. I tried to turn on another little lamp, but it won't come on. The red light on the surge protecter it's plugged into is off. I tried pressing the switch to off and then back to reset and nothing happened. I went to turn on a different lamp (it's quite dark in here) and it too blew out with a blue spark. I don't know what that means but it probably isn't good.
I've unplugged everything on that circuit except the surge protecter and the APC, which are plugged in behind the huge metal filing cabinet and I can't easily reach them. The computer only turned off when I unplugged it from the APC.
What do I do? How serious is this?
