Well, I'm a little overwhelmed with all the unpacking that needs to be done. I'm loathe to do it since I really should paint the ceiling, first. One of the guys I work with has a sprayer I can borrow, so maybe next weekend.

Mostly I'd just like to get some plants and start my container garden on the balcony, because it'd at least be relaxing.

I feel this is just another thing telling me I am too old to like this band. Like, I can't even see the video properly!

No, dude, it's just a tiny, tiny video which hasn't even premiered yet! Which is, no doubt, why it's so tiny.

Also, I succumbed to the need, and asked my friend in IT to help me (he couldn't), and he was very disparaging about Patrick...

Yes, well. My reaction to Patrick in this video is not rational. The video is hilarious and ridiculous, but Patrick totally owns it, and by that I mean he exploded my brain.

How so hot, tiny little man?

I vote balcony gardening. It's instant gratification, something pretty to look at that. Bonus, it isn't something that needs to be done, so it is something you are totally indulging just for you. And after a move, you could use that.

I can't even imagine how long Dev would sulk if I move. (Most) cats hate change, but she's a champion of hate. She's still not pleased with Mister Kitty.

Go Ruby!

Oh thank you thank you for the link shrift. It was blurry but big enough so I could, you know see what was happening. And Patrick's hips!

I was thinking that Patrick is hot specifically because he is, like, a stealth hottie. Like, you don't know he's hot, and then, wham, there it is. Perhaps my straight male friend can't see that, cause I think he doesn't even see stealth hotties in girls.

Um, also I hate surveys that ask my ethnicity. I mean, I am white, but I think my "ethnicity" is Italian American, you know.

sophia - can you write in 'human' ?

I have joked in the past that I went from "oh, hey, he's that dude in that one band, I think I like his voice" to "JESUS CHRIST, PATRICK STUMP, I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES" pretty much overnight. I'm not entirely sure how it happened. I blame YouTube.

White is not an ethnicity. You can be white and fucking Latina. I mean, if you can be black and Latina, why can't you be white and Latina?

Any opinion on the Miley Cyrus/Annie Leibowitz kerfuffle? I have to say, I probably wouldn't let photos like that of my fifteen year old be published. I'm not sure how they didn't work out their inappopriateness at the time, even if they weren't digital photographs that were immediately reviewed.

Now I have to google the Jamie Curtis topless kerfuffle she refers to here. I disagree with her--I don't think there's anything wrong with a fifteen year old coming to terms with her burgeoning sexuality, but that's not the same as portraying it as part of your publicity package. Just because it turned out okay for Jodie Foster and Brooke Shields doesn't mean it wasn't creepy.
