I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Just sitting here watching Nova bounce off the wall(almost literally). 4-month old kitten + catnip = Win!

From the NYT blogging the Republican debate:

Mr. McCain is asked a weird question by Chris Matthews: Are we ever going to go back to the 1950’s when a man could graduate from high school, marry his high school sweetheart and she wouldn’t have to work to have a decent lifestyle? Did I really hear that? The right answer is that most American women want to work and the economy has created opportunities for that change. Mr. McCain says he’d like to see that era return but he doubts it.

Er? I'm trying hard to find a way to laugh at this, but it's just so. . . depressing.

Tweety is so obnoxious. so obsessed about whether he's manly or not. I wish he and Oliver Stone would find a glade and a warrior Talking Stick and leave us all alone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, I'd happily insist in a will that any heirs have to inlay my skull with silver and use it as a cereal bowl every morning, or make me into a diamond that gets inserted in their teeth, but this is just weird.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

this is just weird.

I dunno - maybe it's just that I've clicked on too many of your links, but when I saw the name of the business, my mind jumped straight to tat, not photo.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Tat would be a better memorial. Harder to lose, anyway. And the dearly departed would be a part of you.

Good point. I don't want to be left on a piece of paper or a run of the mill photo.

I want my stakes to be higher.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, it seems like a weird combination of complicated and temporary.

Jesse! it's your turn on scrabulous. I blame Polgara for this.

Man, I could use some 4month old kitten entertainment.

It's been a crazy week and WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S ONLY TUESDAY?!!!!

Also, I'm keeping a close eye on Mister Kitty. He seems a little off. He may not be, it is hard to tell the difference between sleeping 20 hours a day and 22, you know?
