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.

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

If it's less than $600, they don't have to provide a 1099, but legally, any income a person earns -- even $1 -- should be reported.

Now I'm tempted to just walk around in public, telling people, "Hey, I'll do a silly walk for a buck!"

Just so I can report it to the IRS.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I do have to say that I have just added in $$$ I made from a theatre job, wrote on a little piece of paper that I earned $200, and sent it in. No one ever said anything Of course, that was when I made about 10,000 a year....

Must go home and write notes quizzes for tomorrow. I'm having trouble getting up the motivation to leave school, though.

Oh, and can I just say, the San Francisco Unified School District? Still not impressing me with its organizational and getting-things-done skills.

Today is never going to end. It's going to keep going and going and going until I choke it to death.

Ack! I'd forgotten about the photos they took the second day of school. I am crazy with the unphotogenicity! Yeeeuck!

If I fall asleep sitting at my desk, that might be a good use of the fifteen minutes remaining before I can leave.

The IRS is, ultimately, not all that picky about how you report income, as long as you *do* report it. You can, theoretically, report your income as "proceeds from an illegal enterprise." If you pay taxes on it, it'll keep you from going the way of Al Capone. You'll have to pay self-employment tax on it, though, so you're really screwed. Also, eventually the IRS will figure this out and it will be audit time again.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Frank Pembleton had a stroke.(I'd actually have loved to see Braugher play impaired for that whole year, like he wanted to) If he's not a detective, my cosmology's gone all wonky now.(Although there's something to be said for the Chandler shout-out implicit in blunt-force trauma...which I almost wrote as "blunt force drama"...if I blogged about SVU, I'd have a title now.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I took today off to wait around New!House for the city inspector to make sure our new gas meter is not going to, you know, explode or something. I spent three hours pulling up 40-year-old vinyl flooring, which was covered in sticky glue from the 30-year-old vinyl flooring that we pulled up last week. Yuck. In the bright side, tonight we get to go to a screening of Stacy Peralta's [link] new film. A friend of ours is working on it and it is in final edit stage and she has very good things to say about it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

which I almost wrote as "blunt force drama"...if I blogged about SVU, I'd have a title now.

It's almost enough to make me insist you start blogging about SVU, but that's a harsh and cruel demand to place on anyone. Still, you really have to find some excuse to use that phrase somewhere.
