Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This photo seems a tad, wee little bit homoerotic:

Have you seen the movie? Because...yeah.

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

Enjoy it while it lasts. I'm sliding down the slope into hangry land, and the beatings are going to continue until some bacon gets in my belly.

THAT'S our girl!

(the other thing is nice, but it gets a little spooky)

Have you seen the movie?

It's the kind of movie where the plot only makes sense if the two male leads are star-crossed lovers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

yeah, I stayed there once, and was pleasantly surprised to get a fresh cookie when I checked in.

Oh yeah, they're great warm. Even cold out of a tin, not bad.

And now there are actual work things to make me cranky. BAH.

Jesse if you mention crabbiness, you'll get the trifecta: grumpy, cranky, crabby.

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

I've got to stop falling asleep on my couch and staying there all night.

It wouldn't work for everyone, but my solution to this has been to have an alarm set for about 3:30 in the morning. I go to bed and turn it off.

I am crabby!! I've got it all!

Grmph.

Not a bad idea! If I do manage to get to bed before then, I'd have to reset the alarm for my normal wake-up time, so it would work either way. I'll have to do that tonight if I don't work.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Enjoy it while it lasts. I'm sliding down the slope into hangry land, and the beatings are going to continue until some bacon gets in my belly.

Oh, that reminds me. I have some left-over, applewood smoked bacon already cooked that would make an excellent BLT for lunch.

Strangely enough I am a heavy enough sleeper that if I'm in bed already, I just switch it off.

ETA: I mean, when it goes off at 3:30 I can turn it off without it waking me.
