Make sure you don't eat anything that involves chewing, Allyson--my dentist reminded me of that fact when I had fillings replaced recently, and I ate too soon and managed to chomp on my tongue a few times without knowing it.
It's a real burden being right so often.

Oooh, World Market! I'll have to head over there on Payday Friday and check them out. I was originally going to head over to Long Grove and go to the Christmas store, but that's really extending my lunch break too long.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Susan, I don't know if you're still looking, but how about Cary Elwes from his Princess Bride role?
For ornaments, World Market is good. I've also found some nice ones at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Furnace dude is almost done. Looks like it's $100 for the inspection and over $300 for a new part (just the parts, not the labor) for the furnace. I'm going to have to call our home warranty company first, before scheduling repairs. It's not urgent and we won't die of carbon monoxide poisoning and the furnace appears to be working for now.
Still, in this weather, it's best to get this stuff done ASAP.

Yes - you never know when the evil white powder will turn on you and attack!

WRT the link Dana gave: While she's on target about the mime costume, to me the equally disturbing effect is that KK somehow looks like a man in drag.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I just set up my Wii. Played tennis and bowling.
It. Is. AWESOME.

Jealous! I'm waiting until Wii Fit comes out to buy one.
Oh and until I have a job again. Fiscal responsibility BLOWS.

Mine was a Chanukah present from my parents. (As was just about every cool tech thing I own. Looking around, I think the only tech thing I actually bought for myself was my MacBook. TiVo, iPod, Playstation, Wii, stereo, DVD player, TV, all either birthday or Chanukah presents.)

Wii is pretty damn fun, and I'm really not a gamer.
