Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG you guys, I just had the biggest yet lamest accomplishment ever. I changed the lightbulbs in my living room ceiling fixture for the first time in over a year. If I had a ladder, I guess it would be better, but I was standing on a chair with my arms all the way over my head, and falling is like my biggest fear. Luckily, I put the compact fluorescent bulbs in, so I shouldn't have to do it again!

Not lame. Hooray!
I have often sat in dimness rather than get around to changing lightbulbs (though I did not, I point out, curse the dimness).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I have a floor lamp that lights up the room fine, but it's on the other side of the room from the door, which is kind of awkward in the dark. Maybe I'll try the foyer light next!

O World Travelers,
If one wanted to buy something for someone in Hungary, what would the best way to go about it be? I'm thinking maybe a DVD, which means Amazon is sort of out, since I imagine it would only give me NTSC format. There doesn't seem to be an amazon.hu -- should I go with amazon.co.uk and just have them ship to Hungary? Will that work? Am I allowed?
