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.
What are people doing this weekend?

more fun, see flea
My back is all stiff for no good reason.
possibly playing let's make new outfits! with the contents of my various closets
That's a hell of a game. I boggle just contemplating it.
meara, you totally don't need to tempt me with coffee.
This weekend I will hopefully get a working Windows PC in the house (normally I'd just buy new, but I feel pressure not to, with the job uncertainty three months from now), an also sleep. And cook, dammit. That too.
Found this magazine in the supermarket yesterday. I'm all blahblahdepriveygraincakesblahblah, but that's because this is all new to me--I've never dieted for more than a meal, and this is possibly the most important diet I ever go on, so I have to get motivated and keep engaged. That magazine is celebrating its 10th year in business. I bought a copy but have only flipped through it so far. Just starting with the title, 10 years seems a long time to be looking at this as privation.
Oh hey!
Whether it's dealing with celebrity image or political figures or understanding the politics and privacy of the Internet and a website, WILL THE VAMPIRE PEOPLE PLEASE LEAVE THE LOBBY? TRUE ADVENTURES IN CULT FANDOM is raucous, raunchy, funny and pointed: an observation of cultural laws, oddities and changing 'norms' which pokes fun at just about all aspects of Western culture, especially as it meets the machine world. A hilarious, fun read recommended for all libraries, from general-interest lending libraries seeking sharp contemporary humor to college-level collections strong in sociology or social observation.

Why yes, I do still search the internet for validation all the time.
As you should -- that's a great review!
I killed the thread with hubris!
I killed the thread with hubris!Nah, that's a great review to get all chuffed about. Plus, she's specifically pimping it to libraries, which should all but guarantee you a nice little handful of sales.
I was in self-imposed exile for a bit, writing thank-you notes for job interviews, which I utterly fucking hate to do. Hate. HATE.
so, I'm in a bar, waiting for my happy hour partner, when I notice a couple with a baby. I don't know how to feel about it. At least its non smoking. And I snagged a table and two guys keep looking over at the empty chair.
I totally dropped my dinner on the floor (and the stove, and my clothes) before I got a chance to eat it. Awesome. Luckily, it was quick, and I had more of all the parts.
BUT STILL.
