I had a brief moment of "I should get an iTouch and then lend it to ita while she is in the hospital!" Then I realized that was crazy. And not even a GOOD justification.
Slap my hand now!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, my iTouch rationalisation is that it would better to watch stuff on than either of the iPods in my bag now, plus hooked into the free wifi my phone is balking at now.
Apple--crazy pusher people.
The entire back of my right hand where the IV goes in is in pain. Head's backed off though.

Sorry about the hand pain. Happy that the head is backing off.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's something, anyway.
I have yet to do anything productive. Meh. Maybe later.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I had a brief moment of "I should get an iTouch and then lend it to ita while she is in the hospital!" Then I realized that was crazy. And not even a GOOD justification.
I kind of want to email G. and ask him to get me an itouch so I can give it to ita.
Okay, maybe more than kind of.
I'm glad the head pain is backing off, ita.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Papillon ends with a Daring Attempt involving something like throwing a raft made of coconuts lashed together into the roiling waves (with oneself attached to the raft). No word on whether it was successful.
sports movies where someone dies (or gets a clearly deadly illness), which so moves the team that they go on to win a game. So far, I've got this, Brian's Song, and Pride of the Yankees.
Well, I'm not sure Pride of the Yankees counts; I mean, they were Murderer's Row for a really long time before Gehrig got sick, and were still the Everloving Yankees afterward.
Remember the Titans kind of counts, though, what with the captain of the team getting paralyzed right before the big game, which they proceeded to win without him. Also based on a true story.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We're hosting a housefilk, so we need to clean up. Of course, I'm sitting here....

What is a housefilk?
I'm having a lazy Saturday. Going to go shopping tomorrow. We have a potluck on Wednesday so I need to get supplies.
And my "On Demand" isn't working. I already called it in on Thursday and then it worked briefly so I cancelled the service call and now it's not working again. So, was csi new this week?
FNL: I am feeling worried about Tim. And we're not going to have another new episode 'til January. I mean, is CT just going to let Tim camp in their driveway? Can't he sleep on the sofa?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
My opinion on push presents is that anyone who'd rather have jewelry from her husband rather than, say, him changing diapers and taking care of cleaning and cooking for the first few months should probably just have the nurse hand the baby directly to Social Services. It'll work out better for everyone that way.
