some good music majors

It's the Bluegrass thing that he knows drives his parents nuts -- because, how can they discourage it when they've brought him up on it and being a Bluegrass musician was his father's dream job? He's very good at knowing what will put them in a bind.

Yay P-C! "Not the worst!"

Also yay Dylan! That is very awesome.

I had absolutely horrible dreams last night too. Must be the moon phase or something. As a result I'm taking the day off work.

Which will end around 1, when the DH returns from the Ickystans, but that's good too.

I had absolutely horrible dreams last night too.

So did I. Two words: exploding toilet .

I usually don't remember my dreams.

But the night before last I had a strange dream involving angels flying around carrying people. And then KISS flew in.

At which point I turned to Samuel L. Jackson (yeah, I don't know) and laughed "Just what we need; Super-KISS!"

I woke up before Samuel L. Jackson could say "I'm sick of these motherfuckin' flying rock stars and their motherfuckin' makeup!" unfortunately.

Dude. Get out of my head.

Except I think I lucid-dreamed the angels in, because up until that point demons were laying waste to everything, and had rather trapped me and the people I was with.

Clearly they needed to get back to vw's PPT.

Scola might win for most realistic horrible dream, though.

Clearly they needed to get back to vw's PPT.

Clearly! No stealing my demons!

Speaking of the presentation...

What's a good graphic that I could use to represent women and fundamentalism?

Vortex and Sox, my niece has turned down the Echols thing at UVA to take UNC-CH's money and attend college there

Dead to me. I mean, I don't know her, but she's dead to me.

ION, I just realized that my workplace subsidizes Starbucks. A grande latte is $2.70 there.

That Wizard of Oz quilt is awesome. I think I need to learn how to quilt so that I can make that.

Of course, looking around my apartment right now, I've got a half-finished crocheted baby blanket that was orinally meant for a kid who's now five, a bag of wool and about three yards of spun yarn, and a cross-stitch project I started in 1996. So, one more project is probably not a great idea. (The cross-stitch one is the closest to done. I bet I could finish it in a weekend if I just sat down to do it.)
