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

I traded art for sofa tonight.

For a second I thought you were talking about barter. I actually have a watercolor hanging on my wall that was partial payment for a show I designed.

Saw the doctor, and he's concerned about a clot too, and scheduled me a test at a time where I can't make it. Says I'll have to go into the ER to get it done that way instead.

You'll be doing that soon, right?

Thai with Buffistas was excellent! I hope Brenda and her friend are enjoying the rest of their evening with Horton Foote.

Because books.

FNL: Oh, BOYS. I mean, seriously. I want to hug them all.

Matt Damon is right up there. He's a great NPR interview, anyway.

::nods:: I think he's my favorite NPR interviewee ever. John Waters is pretty close, though.

The thing that I just can't wrap my brain around is why people still join. There's the crazy tom cruise shit and the xenu and the clams. Scientology is a laughing stock, isn't it?

This thing is, it isn't all bad. Not only isn't it all bad, some of the things are really good. So. Who gives a hoot about Xenu and Airdales and volcanos, anyway? That stuff is kind of peripheral inside the org anyway, as it is all "higher level" stuff (@@). But yeah, they never take your name off a list, so people who leave/have been gone for years, decades, are still counted as members. I could go on and on for days about it, if anyone really cared to. (In case it's not clear, I'm so glad I'm not in it anymore, and I haven't been in it since 1977 or 78). Count it up as one more B'ta who was in a freakass church.

According to Tivo, we don't have FNL tonight. Is it a repeat?

Because books.

FNL was new here on the East Coast.

I could go on and on for days about it, if anyone really cared to.

As I recall, what you've said about it that I've read has been fascinating and kind of scary. And not unlike other FAC stories I've seen from peeps 'round these parts, except perhaps more intense.

Ah, apparently FNL has lower priority than House and Entourage. Which is, of course, very very wrong.

meara,

I'm super picky about glasses, so it'd be hard to order frames without trying them on, but...for like, $60 instead of $400, I could be a little less picky.

Not even $60! It's for like $20. I'm willing to try it for $20! Or even $12. Cause the price is frame + lens!

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

Perkins, did you get a MacBook Air?

No. J. has one though, so I can admire hers.
