Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm in the opposite place. I'm wide awake, and have lots of shit to do, but am completely incapable of doing it.

Because that potentially-explosive band meeting? Was instead a quote rehearsal unquote wherein we sat there and did fuck all for three hours.

Three hours, people! It took thirty minutes before anyone called a song. And then we played through two progressions of it, and that was the most productive thing we did all night! What the hell?

I live in this place. It's where I should be paying my rent.

Now tagless for your comfort.

ita, I think Aimee got some pharmaceutical help from our friends up North.

I'm horribly awake and should probably be asleep. But I'm catching up on the finale for Doctor Who.

DH's informing his boss of the new job did not go well today.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

ita, I think Aimee got some pharmaceutical help from our friends up North.

Yes, yes I did. Still had to havea script from a US doctor, but our friends to the North were more than happy to accept a fax copy and send me my head meds.

Polgara and I are watching the apparently slowest game on the planet - the Red Sox/Angels game. Top of the ninth, all tied up!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Poor Kat and Liese. I'm finally able to chill for one night. And watch tv. Heroes? Or Eureka? Probably Eureka, but I'll let the hub decide.

Actually, it's not so much that I am awake, but that I can't go to sleep yet. It's the incapable of getting anything done part that is me.

I got a new haircut. While she was cutting my hair, I swallowed enough hair clippings that I fear I may now have a bezoar.

I too live in the zone of being incapable of getting things done. It makes me sad sometimes.

But the truth is most of the time I embrace my inner lazy, shiftless slob and opt for baking scones or playing dress up with the kids.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

lori, I gave up on that game. I can't cheer for either team, even causally, so I moved on. I just need to stick to National League play off games.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We are watching the Tivoed Yankees/Indians game and they are being besieged by bugs. Massive clouds of them. They stopped the game for the players to spray on bug spray, but it doesn't seem to be helping, they just showed a close up of the batter's neck, and there were probably 75 gnats stuck to it.
