Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

A cocktail would very likely help, but it will have to be later, as I am leaving at 500am to make an 8am plane and I still have to pack and must do that before I collapse. I must say venting a bit has cooled me down, so thanks y'all.

sara, WTF?! c-section scissors in your coat? (BTW, wanna come visit at the end of the month?)

I spent $70 at Ikea and got 4 lightbulbs, and 2 lamps. The lightbulbs cost as much as the lamp!

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

Oh, dear. Tonight's Mission: Impossible is one of the difficult ones. I thought I'd gotten the hand of watching them. Mostly I'm distracted by the idea of that many white people doing so much manual labour in the Caribbean in the 70s.

how do you get the hang of watching Mission:Impossible? Does it require a huge suspension of disbelief?

Did you know that Woody Allen guest starred on MASH?

You have to get used to doing a lot of front-loading. They don't explain how they're doing stuff as they're doing it, so if you miss the first few minutes of why and even what, well...it takes practice.

This one has too many people that look alike.

But, hey, Nimoy.

Picked up a copy of LA Weekly while waiting for lunch today, and read a really great bit by Sherman Alexie about having his persona appropriated by someone who's just so much more him than he is. I wonder if he wrote it just now, or it's an older piece.

Did you know that Woody Allen guest starred on MASH?

Not a MASH person. And certainly not a Woody Allen person.

I want to get my dad a Cyclone rake. What do leaf blowers do, precisely? Or maybe I mean: what do leaf blowers do precisely? I mean, do they just shove the leaves anywhere else?

They're pretty good for alienating neighbors and freaking out dogs, too.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Leaf blowers are pretty decent for getting the leaves from vaguely over here to vaguely over there. So for places like my parents' town, where you blow the leaves into a big pile in the street next to the curb and a guy in a special truck comes around to collect them, they're pretty good. Getting them into something more specific, like into a container, requires a bit more skill, but it can be done.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

So, why is Elizabeth Berkley (of Showgirls fame) suddenly all over my TV? First, she's hosting some dance show on Bravo (as you will recall from the aforementioned Showgirls, she's a DANCER!),and now she's guesting on CSI, which I haven't watched in years and decided to watch on a whim tonight.

BTW, wanna come visit at the end of the month?

FUCK YEAH. But sadly, unpossible. Fucking job and inept testers have claimed those days. Shit, I'm listed to work that weekend (I won't, though.) I'd blow them off, but that it's still early in this position.

(I'd really wanted to do a surprise appearance at the very least, but obviously was foiled.)

And yes, c-section stitches scissors is weird. And sewing them into my coat is weirder. But it is so typically me.
