Why do you think Bill Gates lives in the "smart house"? That shit defends him better than SARAH ever will.
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The morning was supposed to go like this:
Sleep in a bit. Pick up coworker from the airport. Go to 10AM workshop.
The morning, so far, has been this:
Wake up before alarm, despite tiredness and fervent desire for more sleep. Find out coworker's flight is delayed over an hour, at this point. Get interrupted while watching last night's "The Office" and am told that someone else will pick her up from the airport, so head to office nearly an hour later than usual, meaning rush-hour traffic is in full swing.
Sit at desk. Hate world.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh wait - it would probably be Melinda Gates who would probably have the fighting prowess. What with her having to defend Bill from random attacks by Linus Torvald's wife (who was once some martial arts champion of Finland, for reals).

I look more rad than Lutheranism
And remember the "Scorpio" episode of The Simpsons?
God that was hilarious. Best thing Albert Brooks ever did since DEFENDING YOUR LIFE.
"Uh... you have any sugar around here?"
"Sugar? Sure." [takes two handfuls of sugar out of his pockets] "There you go. Sorry it's not in packages. Want some cream?" [reaches back into his pockets]
"Uh... I... no." [backs away slowly]

Wake up before alarm, despite tiredness and fervent desire for more sleep.
I woke up at 5AM and stumbled around moaning "WHY IS IT SO DARK? WHY DO I FEEL LIKE I'M DYING?" for a few minutes before I thought to look at a clock.

Wake up before alarm, despite tiredness and fervent desire for more sleep.
You've just described nearly every day I've had for the last I don't know how many years.

I was reading an article the other day about people with anaemia and hypothyroidism and the like, and how tiredeness was the main symptom. They were talking about how they could easily sleep for twelve hours straight and finding it difficult to find the energy for everyday tasks. What if you're like that, and you don't have an excuse? Do The Lazies count as an excuse?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
On Today's Papers this morning I heard the story about a local reporter who got fired because he chronically overslept. A few months later, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer, and he figures that must have been the source of his sleepiness.
The only conclusion I can draw from this is that Dana has testicular cancer.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Last night I remembered I had some Xanax, and this morning I fully understand while people become addicted. Best sleep I've had in weeks. I actually feel AWAKE.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I woke up at 5AM and stumbled around moaning "WHY IS IT SO DARK? WHY DO I FEEL LIKE I'M DYING?" for a few minutes before I thought to look at a clock.
DH bought this stupid projection clock so I have a big red LED numbers projected on the ceiling. It's bad enough tossing and turning and rolling over to see the clock. When it's staring down at you in giant red numbers, UGH.
