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?

The status is NOT quo.

Happy Birthday, Sophia!

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Like bordering on dangerous out of date.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.

Well so far we haven't had any head on inflight collisions.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

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

Tom Scola is my soulmate.

a 100% delay rats that I've had at this airport over the past three months

Best Typo Evar.

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A really big part of the problem is that the air traffic control system in the US is scarily out of date.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!
