"I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world"

1) Congrats msbelle! If you do get called in, just remember the phrase "I thought it was time for a change". They cannot out argue that.

2) Welcome G_G

3) My "week o' suck" continues tomorrow with my quest to have my license reinstated. This will be achieved it seems by paying hundreds of dollars. The logic in this situation is simple. "If we charge someone who made a simple mistake as much money as we can, yet again we can bleed tax-payers AND make them feel like crap simultaniously!"

Don't even get me started on UPS...

I'm very curious about the piglets, but it doesn't say how big they get--they're teacup tiny NOW, but how big are they as ADULTS?


JenP - Dec 11, 2007 8:28:58 pm PST #6784 of 10001

Beer stein big! (I have no idea)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The piglets freak me out. I wonder if they're good eating.

It's always extra special when meara mearas. As only she can, much as we try.

Well, not me. I'm clipboard-lazy.

Today was a massive waste of time and a mood-killer to boot. But msbelle got a new job! We had a delurker! I may one day try Mastercook (I'm pretty sure I used it back in the day). So not a total loss.

In terms of things one wants made (like the bigger iTouch (I'm going to justify my eventual one as my movie player)) I want an 8.5x11 piece of ePaper that I can print to from my desktop and carry with me into the kitchen. Well, carry to anywhere, but I'm thinking mostly of things like recipes that I don't want to keep in hard copy, but I don't always have the kitchen tidy enough to have safe counter space.

TiVo tricked me into watching reality TV. Half an episode of the Kardashian thing--mostly I wanted to know if that was really Bruce Jenner (and it is), and an entire Girls Next Door. Who are those girls? I mean, what separates them from the other ones that have posed? They're all his girlfriends, and no others are? Is there a First Girlfriend, the one who shares a bedroom with him? What's with that Kendra chick? I think she'd totally cut a bitch. But she wears trainers and jeans, so I kinda dig her.

Makes me wonder if I'd have made money with my body if I'd had the chance. Probably not. I have issues with attractiveness that'd sabotage me from the get go.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

The streetlights in my neighborhood are out. Since one is located right outside my bedroom window this is the first time I'll sleep in a REALLY dark room in this apartment.

In decidedly brighter news, I encountered no ice (other than on the car) on my way home, my apt has power and I got out of rehearsal 1.5 hours before scheduled.

Those piglets are cute but since I know they don't stay like that I really don't want one.
