sarameg, perhaps DebetEsse can fix your "hairdryer" for you.
I don't think there's any way - short of moving to Antarctica - of ridding yourself of mice neatly. Old-fashioned traps may be the least offensive - the D-Con bait things kill the mice and you usually don't SEE the bodies ... but if they die in the wall, you have to live with the smell. Glue traps are cruel and don't work well. They also occasionally trap pets (I have a story about my sister's cat). And cats themselves do tend to leave, um, evidence (CSI: Rodent, anyone?).
I would love circus school, but I have no discernible circus skills.
It was freezing at school today so I went and got a space heater for the room I'm in. This is my third space heater purchase of the year and I fear I have one more to go.
Um, yay?
Yes Yay!
I love your anvillyness. Its part of what makes you fun.
I'm telling you, I think the circus might be the way to go.
Oh my god. Get in the car. We can't stop here. This is
Dilbert
country!
ETA: I mean, what, you think you're joining the circus without me?
I love your anvillyness. Its part of what makes you fun.
Really? I would've assumed it would be a bit tiring and annoying. (I'm honestly surprised, not trolling for nice compliments like I already got, what with the "makes you fun" and all).
Dana, if you run and join the circus, will you have to go to circus school and do circus homework?
I wonder if accountants ever run off to join the circus. Because circuses would need bookkeepers....
"I was an accountant for a Fortune 500 company. Then I ran off to joint the circus."
"Really? What do you do?"
"I'm their accountant."

You can be the Fraser to my Angry Clown.

There's no homework in the imaginary circus!

Dude, a guy called into Car Talk (I think, it was one of my NPR podcasts anyway) and said he was a clown with the Shriners as an avocation but his day job was IRS agent. People who knew him in either setting apparently wouldn't believe in his other life.
In an odd convergence, Sean Bean is a voice actor in Oblivion.
t ponders buying Oblivion, whatever it may be, and learning to play it just to listen to Sean Bean's voice
t realizes Sean Bean's voice can be heard on the FOTR and Sharpe DVDs already on shelf at home for much less effort, with the added bonus of seeing Sean Bean
t considers buying Oblivion anyway as gift for DH and seeing how long it would take him to figure out my motivation
