My one "aha! I should ask for this for Yuletide!" moment I remembered from earlier in the year was the Luc Besson movie "District B13"
That's at the top of my Netflix queue! I just need to watch something and return a disc so it can come to me.
Jayne: Anybody remember her comin' at me with a butcher's knife? Wash: Wacky fun.
'Objects In Space'
Natter 54: Right here, dammit.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
flea, that baby name site is cracking me up.
I really like Freddie Prinze jr. and heard his father was famous and died tragically. What was his name?

Saturday? 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM for my every-other-weekend programming class. The rest of the time will be spent collapsifying most likely.

It may just be my day, but I am weeping with laughter in my office. I am worried that if anyone walks by they will think I am crying.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Like bordering on dangerous out of date.
Bordering on? I thought we crossed that line a while back.

Now tagless for your comfort.
We're heading to Indiana for the Bluffton Street Fair. Tis a big deal in DH's hometown and loads of fair type food. On sticks.
There's a lemon shake up out there with my name on it.

I have to say, I just love saying the word "Walloon".

Hope springs eternal that I can get someone to write me Something Wicked This Way Comes futurefic.
Oh my total god I could write you that.
A really big part of the problem is that the air traffic control system in the US is scarily out of date.
The company that is [bidding on|doing|hopes to do] the redesign of the ATC system is in Cambridge, and recruited employees with, among other things, ads in the T asking, "Ever try to redesign something from the ground up? While it's still working?"
I think the other problem with US flying is that it's a really big country, all controlled by one system. In France, you not only have fewer flights to fewer destinations of shorter distances, it's also a small enough country that if it's raining fit to beat the band in Lyons, it's probably raining in a bunch of the other cities of France too.
Whereas, in this country, a thunderstorm in Ohio causes a cascade-failure so that people in Florida get delayed, and it's like "Oh no, you are doing that just to fuck with me, right?"

I desperately need new glasses and remembered, hey, I actually have vision insurance and the place I go to is in network! I'm trying to figure out my face type and what frames would look best on me.
I am taking suggestions!
