What a fantastic picture of Dylan!

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.

information libertarian

ita, I think you need a new specialist, and if you're not up to doing the calling around and finding out who's best and getting an appointment, I am sure one of us who is a telephonic force of nature would be willing to help out (I'm thinking along the lines of the force of Vortex or Allyson.) There have got to be better doctors out there. Or at least ones willing to return your calls and not make you have the ideas.

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

Funny you should say that. My current specialist is breaking up with me. He's referring me to someone else--I have no idea who and will probably just follow along meekly.

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday ChiKat!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

TAL lovers! I just listened to a totally entertaining podcast interview with Ira Glass! It's here: [link] (also on iTunes). I knew I had to pass it on when he analogized his reporting style to X-Files 'shippers. I am totally going to buy his book now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fun!

In fancy phone news, it turns out it's discontinued or whatever -- I went to the store and they said they haven't sold them in a couple of months. So I ordered it online for free! Plus $15 shipping. Eh.
