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

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

laundry gets done when I feel like it - all the way to the putting it away part. laundry is my goto chore if I feel I should do something around the house, but don't wanna. Which means it is rare for us to run out of clean clothes. I'm gonna have to do laundry this weekend because I am down to one basket for dirty clothes and two full of clean clothes -- logically putting away clean clothes would make sense, but that ain't gonna happen.

so far I have mailed packages today and I put stuff in the ice cream maker to make eggnog ice cream

I think the next plan is to decorate the tree while watching Army of Darkness

Had Mom over to look at the new apartment now that I've got most of the furniture set up where I want it. Of course she fixated on all the boxes of tapes and books I'm in the process of unpacking, never mind that I've been assembling and moving furniture, nailing up pictures, and getting all my kitchenware in order for the last week. On the upside, my central living room area is basically complete and capable of comfortably seating 4 people now.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Went to holiday xmas party, got a gigantic bonus that paid for my ticket home, and all the holiday spending, got an iPod shuffle, Kristen kept me sane. Now I'm to tidy my apartment, wrap gifties, do some holiday baking, drop holiday baking off to Tim's house....oh ita? Will you be around at all tomorrow so I can drop a giftie by your place?

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

Will you be around at all tomorrow so I can drop a giftie by your place?

My tomorrow depends very much on my today, and what I manage to get accomplished. I should be able to tell you more this afternoon/early evening.

I just got a weird Facebook message from a cousin who friended me months ago explaining she just now found me on Facebook. I know my brain is operating on too little oxygen, but I can't make that one make sense.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Maybe she just forgot she found/friended you earlier?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

got a gigantic bonus

Ah. That doesn't make your boss less of an ass, but at least it's something.

I found out the other day that I'm getting .8% more of a raise than the typical amount. Woo hoo. I mean, I'm pleased, but it's obviously not super-exciting.

Art Crawl!!!

Wait - I think so. Umm, only think because, I could swear that the Bruno brothers were together on another episode of Numb3rs. . . or am I confusing it with that one episode of Dead Zone.

Also, I also enjoyed seeing Enrico Colantoni in the episode. I wonder if he'd been considered for that part prior to VM because there was a certain Keith Marsish quality to his character.

I guess. When you live online it's different, I suppose.

She's in the middle of a PR blitz for her husband's book, so the last thing she's thinking about is the last time she communicated with me.

Unfortunately IMDB fancy search won't clear that up for us, sumi. But I think this is the first instance of what you were looking for--I remember you mentioning after Walt got killed on Dead Zone.
