I see Ohio is expecting snowpocalypse. I'm sure there is currently a stampeded to the stores for bread, milk and toilet paper.

One of my co-workers saw two women get in a fistfight at a grocery store over carts full of food. At the moment, the streets are still clear here and there are still occasional patches of ground showing through the snow.

Where does "nom nom nom" come from?

I recall hearing it in the mid 90s long before anyone ever thought of LOLcats. At the time it was a reference to lesbian porn, but that may not have been where it got started.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Isn't nom nom nom the sound Cookie Monster makes?

So what are people doing this weekend?

Tonight I am being watching SGA and maybe doing laundry. Saturday afternoon is groceries, and in the evening I'm going to see Peter Mulvey in concert. Sunday I'm going to be a lazy bastard. Although I might leave the house to meet Buffistas for food.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I would not venture out with the kids after that morning, unless there was a drop-off child watch involved with the outing.

Owen made the decision for me by falling asleep on the couch. I guess getting your face bitten and cutting a finger (not to mention dripping blood up and down the entire staircase) is enough to wear a kid out.

Liv just dumped her chocolate milk out. If I can get her to sleep before Owen wakes up, it means I've won the lottery.

Speaking of Muppets, today, the Chicago Tribune refers to a comment made by some Irish musician PTB who says that "Danny Boy" should be banned for being too depressing.

Well, I say, watch this!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Did you ever delgate a boring, repetitive task to someone-- a task that, though boring and repetitive, needs to be done accurately and is very important. And then you don't check on them for awhile. And then you need the information quickly and realize that they have screwed up a key componant which means you have to go through each and every entry, copy, etc for the past three months making sure they are accurate.

All. The. Time.

And then I get chewed out by the Big Boss for not delegating more often.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I had an unpleasant incident with the rude-but-talented guy in two of my classes this morning and I don't know what to think about it. He sits directly behind me -- I was leaning back, with plenty of room to spare between me and the front of his desk, and idly scratching the back of my scalp as one does when one is preoccupied and thinking.

"That's DISGUSTING" he said loudly. "That's unhygienic! Stop doing that!"

2 questions, because I'm still upset -- on a 1-10 scale, how disgusting is it for somebody to scratch or fuss with their clean scalp/hair? My second question is how much of an asshole is he, but the first answer depends on it....
