I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

What do people do about "making the bed" when you get up?

Personally, I have a spouse who is obsessive about bed-making and does it every day and very well, too. Hey, works for me.

I love coming home to a made bed. I can't explain why. So if I have time in the morning (and I generally don't), I make the bed before I leave.

I love Wonder Woman's hair. And The Flash is just awesome. And Superman has a great outfit.

Hawkgirl is fucking AWESOME.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Being as non-news-following as I am, I hadn't even seen the Clinton "choking up" video until today, when the three hundredth damn mention of it showed up. Seriously, I've never liked her as much as I did watching that clip. A certain colleague is getting a smack-down today for calling it crying.

In other news, Obama is still as adorable as a baby koala. He MUST be summoning demons or something. I actually feel bad for the other candidates -- it's hard to think seriously about Edwards or Biden or Kucinich when there are these two bright shiny candidates to think about.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

THAT is the Wonder Woman costume I could actually wear! Too bad most people would be like, huh?

I am so behind on the news. I had no idea about this:

I walked into my boss's office this morning to discuss, you know, work, and she opened with, "I cannot avoid Britney Spears!!" Um, OK.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Gronk.

I hate it when I (a) work during the week at the bookstore, because we never seem to get out of there before 11:00 pm, (b) stay up late to watch the TV I missed while at said bookstore, and (c) go to bed after 1:00 am, only to be kept awake by a needy cat who desperately craves constant petting when I'm in bed. Then, after I managed to fall asleep an hour later, the cat woke me up an hour after that to meow and demand more petting, which I refused to give her. She then tried knocking things off the bedside table, so I kicked her out of the bedroom and closed the door behind her.

After all that, my foot started spasming along the outside edge (which it tends to do immediately after I get home from a long shift at the store, not four hours later) and wouldn't stop for at least 30 minutes, until I finally got up and squeezed the muscle for some time until it stopped. Only then could I fall back asleep.

Like I said, gronk.

Only good thing is that I'm leaving at 1:30 to await delivery of my new TV!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

At least Britney Spears is not making the national 6:30 news -- unlike Lindsey Lohan last summer. (It was more of a general piece, about young famous people losing their shit, but LL getting arrested was the spark, I'm sure.)

Hee!

Obama is still as adorable as a baby koala

He's picked up an endorsement from John Kerry. Not sure if that is a good thing for him or not.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

There's a bar in Madison where you can get a beer in a boot. A nice glass boot.

Here in Texas, you can hardly find a bar without glass boot mugs.

Ah. Here they are [link]

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

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

Well, here's an odd body mod. Totally safe for work, just weird (and ouchy) as shit.

First of all, eww! Second of all, ouch! Thirdly, why?
