DH is home, has a head cold, hasn't slept in 26 hours, and needs to stay up a few more. Oh, and he got accosted by the KGB.
OK, that's a bad day. Though I guess any KGB accosting you can walk away from is technically pretty good...
We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

I am exceptionally excited that you are probably going to buy something I found for you.
... except that it's sold out on the website. Waaaaah! Do I want it enough to ask one of the UK peeps to go into a Miss Selfridge store? I don't know.
I apparently am not well enough to be trusted with a tea kettle. I just filled my teapot to overflowing. I *thought* I was paying attention, but apparently not.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Omnis, i am going to KILL YOU if you keep making cryptic hints! Want to know! Want! Want! WOn't tell, pretty pleace *pupy eyes* you can always email me slightly less cryptic hints....*nudge* *wink*Hopefully after Friday I can release some of the knowledge. God I hope so, my brain is.. well. I've never kept a secret this long. And if it wasn't for you, your former roomate and ND, I'd have spilled in here LONG ago.
desperately need to get a real bra fitting myself, but am always shy about asking.Funny, the word "Shy" and E_O don't seem to pop up together. Kinda pleasently surprised. Um.. Anyhow, I seem to recall (back in undergrad days) some mail order bra sizing kit or some such. There was always threat of ordering for the guys as a gag gift. Do they really exhist? Or is it just a tape measure and a form to fill out?
Is this an Open Source Boobs Project thing?open huh Wha? I'm always open for that. er. um. nebermind.

sj - THANK YOU! For the Eddie report. SOOOO looking forward to next Monday! And when the hell do I ever say that? Though taking Tuesday off probably helps a lot, too.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My wibble response? "I liked the green pen."
Heh. But at least it wasn't "That'll give you bees," right?
I have a terrible feeling I'll jinx it by typing this, but...we're on night 3 of Ferberization, and I put Dylan down in his crib about 10 minutes ago, and...I haven't heard a peep! I'm in such a state of disbelief that I keep running through all the non-sleep possibilities in my head, up to and including "maybe his room just spontaneously soundproofed itself when I left and he's actually in there sobbing and I should go check on him." (But I won't. Probably.)
The best part is that DH offered to make dinner since I was taking bedtime, only bedtime seems to have resolved itself a full half-hour earlier than usual, leaving me free to roam the interwebs while he cooks Woot!

Oh DANGIT!
I made my plans for this evening (working out, getting dinner to go rather than a nice sit down place) figuring I would sit in the room and watch Top Model. And nooooooo--this TV gets ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN Classic, ESPN News, The Ocho....but does NOT GET the CW!! ARGH. And I have no desire to watch anythign else that's on--there's not even any Law and Order!!

Yay, Dylan!

move out and draw fire
GH vs. RB:
Avatars. The female ones in GH are borderline offensive to completely offensive.
HUD: You can't see as many notes in GH, so you don't have a chance to see the upcoming patterns and get your finger position ready. It's also harder to see the rhythm, so you (meaning "I") end up having to play mostly by ear. Which isn't so hot at lower levels when not all the notes in the song are there to be played.
I also have a hard time watching the notes and still being able to see my Star Power level. And I can't use the damn accuracy tracker for love or money.
And I hate the GH controller a lot more than the RB one. Which is probably another whole rant.
I'm a Hard/Expert player on RB and only a Hard on GH, which is pretty much equivalent to Expert on RB.
Good parts: the songs for GH are *guitar* songs - you're rarely playing hours of rhythm guitar. And I can't think of another good part. Oh, some of the "camera work" is more fun.

How is there no Law and Order? That just seems wrong. I thought that was a rule!
Go, Dylan!

Because books.
Dylan! Very awesome way to treat your parents, kiddo.
