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.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Um, yay?
Yes Yay!

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?

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?

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

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

Dana, if you run and join the circus, will you have to go to circus school and do circus homework?
"Hey, man, wanna come out tonight?"
"Can't, man. Look at this homework load: For Professor Bongo I gotta juggle thirteen fish, a torch and a midget by Thursday, I have a fifteen page essay on the uses of custard due tomorrow for Professor Honksalot and Professor Jiggles says my seltzer in the face pratfall doesn't pass muster, so I gotta work on that. I'm swamped, dude."
