I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

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

eta: Wow, to hire a "seven diamond" escort for a whole day is $31,000.

No thanks. Think I'd rather buy a car.

Apparently, there's a group of women in the building on a diet. How do I know this? Well, not long ago, a cutesy handmade sign appeared on an office door with "[name]: Portion Control"

Shortly thereafter, one appears on another door with something about "less of me" and some other one I don't recall on another, but it's vaguely shaming. There are cutesy colored paperclips hanging from them, I'm guessing signifying lbs or time.

It fills me with uhg. I mean, whatever, but this is work.

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

I'm at the "inevitable heat death of the universe" stage of boredom.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

People, come on! Talk to me. I'm starting to think Spitzer heard us cracking wise and had the feds shut us down. Oh wait, guess he probably can't do that anymore.

Compassionately intolerant

Because the religious right is just such a fan of the Catholic Church?

Point to you.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am tired, not so much because of DST, but because I woke up at random points during the night. Went right back to sleep each time, but still....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Eep! I just made an unofficial pitch on a book to a publisher who contacted me.

It would be very good to get another advance and start another book, as the alternative is more temping (which is less tempting).

Also, I suspect this book would (a) pay more and (b) be easier to write than my Tom Waits book.
