Those who are not watching Eureka, carry on with your toilets.

As a point of interest, are you suggesting there are people who chould carry on without one?

I like the lid down on my toilet, and I'm pretty consistent about doing it. I've actually gotten into arguments with old girlfriends because they didn't put the lid down, the just left the seat down. It was always fun to watch the look on their faces when they got asked to please put the lid down.

Plus, if you close the lid before you flush, you avoid the microparticles flying around the bathroom and settling on things like your toothbrush.

I suppose if you haven't got one, you still have to carry on.

Is it wrong that I don't care that my cat loves to drink out of the toilet?

It's a good thing, since you've visited me and Devi? She slurps from it. Which has made me clean the toilet a lot.

I don't buy into the war/debate/whatever of single vs not. I can't cheerlead for either, and wish that battle'd be exposed for the goofy it is. You seek out what works for you. Me, well, there'd have to be a hell of a convincing argument for me to change and do the whole couple thing, FOR ME. There are six billion or whatever people in the world. There are a variety of choices. What I resent is the assumption I'm biding time for The One. I'm not. I'm doing what works for me. I don't plan on having kids. Haven't for a long time. If I change that plan? Um? So what? It isn't a grand statement, it's just me. Gnarg.

Issue. That's not about choosing to be single, but just about judging choices.

I like the lid down so it's much simpler with the seat down. That way things can't fall in.

I am competitively tech-googling with someone trying to fix my stupid network. I hate when right off the bat there's a "Well, you know you do have to have *this* box checked, right?"

The icing had 16 oz of bittersweet chocolate, plus a large quantity of cocoa (1/2 cup? 1 cup?). Also nearly a pound of butter. Did I mention the overwhelmingness?

Lordie! Yeah, I don't know why it took so long for the chance of difference to occur to me--not until I was finished the very nice and tasty just-enough frosting. 8oz of whichever chocolate I wanted (I chose bittersweet) and 3/4c of cocoa and 2.5 sticks of butter.

Until I logged in and saw the picture, despite having known your Given First Name, I totally thought it was random Facebook spamming, because I didn't believe your full name was real.

t facepalm

And yet I still maintain that Madrigal won the most ill-fitting Real Name award.

I'm glad to hear your cake turned out well. We did wonder if we were testing the "let's see if it's possible to have too much chocolate" version of the recipe. About how thick was the icing on your cake? It was about 1 cm thick (1/2 cm in between the layers) on ours.

Too much chocolate? Unpossible!

Have y'all even seen the show "How to look good naked?" It's quite awesome. It's a British show where this stylist takes normal shaped women, makes them over, and convinces them to do a nude photo shoot and walk in a fashion show in underwear. It's all about dressing right and making them over so they feel good about their bodies, not trying to get them to loose 20 pounds in a few weeks.

Also, I wastch a good chunk of Gossip Girls, and it was cheesetastic and awful, and I didn't know if I loved it or hated it. It was like the OC without the sense of fun.

I agree with the assertion that single vs. couple arguments and simplifications are ridic, that list also fails when looking at same sex couples and for single parents. cause #1, yeah NSM.

Mac had a babysitter tonight so I could work late and he was all filled with hugs and cooperation once she left. It's amazing what a little time away does.

I should be in bed.

I hope you are indeed in bed. I am not long for this night, I think. Meds are taking their toll.
