I'd say it's a good idea if side effects might include very suggestible syptoms like itching or nausea.

Yeah, I figure I better stop all that sex and breastfeeding I'm always busy with so who needs to read for all that?

I have to admit to some vindicated fistpumping when eventually reading the side effects sometimes--dysphoria especially. Stadol makes me a raging bitch. I'd like to think I'm a funny bitch, and it seems that I'm an attractive bitch, but I am incontrovertibly megabitch.

Consider that increase if you will.

Okay, back to Full Metal Alchemist.

Anime people--when's it safe to watch the movie? They showed a trailer at the start of this disk (12--where we learn that their father is 400 years old, amongst other things) that looked like it at least took place after the younger brother got a body. Don't want to spoil too much. I also got into Trinity Blood for a hot second, but now TiVo doesn't list any more episodes. What's with that? I thought anime lasted forever and there was no sense of closure. Are we actually up to date?

now to clean up the kitchen, clear off my own bed and hit the hay.

Damn, msbelle. You're very accomplished and all that. Most I want to get done before bed is find the Full Metal Alchemist #10 DVD so I can package it for return.

Go team low bar!

it was too much. I am beat. It is all this stuff i my head that I have told myself I need to get done BEFORE something. We leave town on Thursday which means gifts to teachers and friends need to be out this week. Then there is the company party tomorrow night and something else and something else. me and my stupid big ideas.

Man, go team productivity, msbelle. I just have all the stuff in my head I have to get done before something...I just don't actually get it done.

Hope you're having safe travels & a good trip, Kat.

Me, I'm having Weekend of Music, which I think is good for my soul. Last night we went to a local steakhouse that has hired a jazz duo for Friday nights. They're great players and really nice guys. We enjoyed the evening, and I had a nice pork chop dinner and a really great mango/raspberry cheesecake. Although it was a ton of food, so technically, I only had a mango cheesecake. In a few minutes here, I'll have the raspberry portion.

Anyway, then we taught all day today. And then went out to the little local symphony. Our trombone player, from our former band, is in the group, and had invited us. We actually bought season tickets, but each time has been a disaster, so this is the first time we've made it. It was fun! The symphony was formed 17 years ago as someone's thesis...that it would be possible for a community our size to support such a group. And indeed, it is. They're not the world's best players, but they tackled some difficult material and did a good job.

Now I've got a fire going, and leftover pork chops, and a sleepy dog, and I'm about to have cheesecake, so I am a happy girl.

i've watched four movies today. that about covers it...

There's this artist... his thing is making household objects look like meat. [link]

My fave is the toilet.

If I take another antihistamine I might never wake up. On the other hand, it's a more peaceful and tidy way to go than blood loss from self-inflicted scratches.

I watched the ST:TNG episode of I, Borg this morning. That show sure had some clunkers, but when it was on, whoo! On. I liked this episode especially because they stuck to their "annihilate all enemy combatants" stance and backed down from their original plan when it became doubtful that there would be no collateral damage.

I hate when the SFF protagonists back down from a situation in which if there's any enemy remaining they will track our heroes down with intent to kill...as if the idea of killing all their attackers has just now occured to "us."

Patrick Stewart and Whoopi Goldberg got to do some fine work, not to omit the kid playing Hugh.

From an informal and incredibly incomplete survey the thesis of ST:TOS seemed to be "Don't be happy. Humans aren't meant to be that way." Not sure how/why/if that changed by TNG, but I am sure glad it did. I feel like a traitor for realising I kinda don't like TOS, and I'm still sniffing at the co-worker who said all SFF on TV that has followed is inferior.

It's funny--of Liese's post, the only word I can read reliably is cheesecake. And I'm not even hungry.

Okay, back to watching Formula 51. Not sure why I rented it, but men in skirts will do for a rationale for now.

eta: Tommy, I have to admit I had some worry about this, but I think it's okay now.

I put my clean clothes away, on the same day I washed them.

I think I need some wine to help me get over the shock.
