I was listening to my iPod on the bus home last night, and some guy mimed his approval of my snazzy eyeglasses. Either that, or he was telling me to steal second base.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
That myspace story is absolutely horrifying.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Oh my god, I just inhaled water up my nose. (Note: Suzi - I kept it from actually leaving said nose.)
My favorite quote is:

Got one more thing done with--all enrolled for my insurance for 2008. Luckily enough, even with my company overhauling its medical insurance plans, my HMO is one of the few still remaining, so I didn't have to change anything. Now, I just have to send the check off to the cat-sitters for next week and head into the bookstore.
Anybody want to do my laundry and clean my apartment while I'm working at the store tonight?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
You know, I wish I'd known all this workman's comp stuff from last fall when I fell from a chair while HANGING STUDENT WORK at school, admin insisted on calling an ambulance (liability purposes) and then workman's comp wouldn't pay for the ambulance and I had to pony up the $600. I seriously would have refused the amblulance and had someone drive me if I thought I would have had to pay for it.

Holy hell, I have no idea how or why people deal with the Baltimore highways at rush hour. That was painful. Plus with guilt for leaving work before we were done, but hello, I had a prior commitment and I left at 5! Not early!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Some amazing high-speed photography that this woman does - she gets pictures of bullets hitting fruit and beer bottles and what-not. Plus she fires a D-battery into a grapefruit. Fun. [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Those are marvellous pictures, tommy. She's a bit closemouthed on her techniques for some of them--I'd love to know how she's achieving the ones that just look like they're exploding from within.
It occurs to me that I should stop going to the ER because I'm not getting enough pain relief. So it turns into a lengthy process into which I have to drag someone else, and all I get is 12-18 hours off. Way too much fuss.
