I don't care enough to actually go to Buffalo.
Not even to shuffle off there?
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

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

Umbrella.
I mean, it's still 71 degrees out. (It got up to 82 out here.)
But considering how windy it is -- the jacket might stand you in better stead than the umbrella in protecting you from rain.

I am back from Dramatic Reversal Morning.
Had a job interview for a temp assignment. Turned out they actually wanted a Visual Basic programmer but only wanted to pay Word Processor rates. That was beyond my scope.
Went by my temp agency and they had nothing.
Which sucks because we are really, really scraping after my last month of partial work finishing the book.
And then as I wandered the streets and felt stressed and disconsolate got a call from my agency. They've got a job that starts tomorrow at one of my regular places and it goes for two months. Woot! That will make a big difference.

The Magna Carta is SO last millennium! Our forward-thinking president has already renounced its most important provisions. It's just not relevant anymore here in the Bush Empire.

Good news, David. And I hope first company gets screwed by trying to cheap it out.

I went outside and discovered a half-dozen fire engines, some ambulances, and a mobile command unit. And yet there were no firefighters, hot or otherwise, for me to ogle. Does that seem right to you?

Not right at all, shrift.
David - whoo hoo on the temp job!

We are so over that habeus corpus thing. And "To none will we sell, to none deny or delay, right or justice." Who cares about that anymore?
Yay job!

yeah, I used to hate that when I was temping. They'd say they wanted a receptionist, but they really wanted an assistant. I would rat them right out to the agency. There would usually be some BS about how the person who placed the order didn't really know what was required . . .
