Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

Because books.

Oh, jesus, brenda. I completely forgot it was on, and wow. I can't even imagine.

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

That's heavy, brenda.

These are some meeting doodles.

God, the courtyard is alive with the burbling of toddlers. I'm so fucking grinchy, but I hate the common spaces noise.

How odd. They seem to only make two designs of shirt. Is that an example of long tail? I do think it's kinda weird seeing kids in political clothing, but I'm willing to forgive a lot for a good joke. This? Not quite a joke, I guess.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That's awful, Brenda.

I went over to Oakland to have lunch with Sparky and her DH. It was fun, but they forced me to buy this clock

Then I got caught in a traffic jam because there was a bad accident on the other side of the freeway that people on my side had to gawk at, and now I am home. I should be cleaning, but I think it is naptime instead.

Hee. That's very cute.

I'm waiting for Doctor Who to upload to where I can watch it on my TV, and in the meanwhile, I've found new internet.

I don't know if anything on the site is actually for sale, but this is ethereally pretty and this is kinda funny.

Seems a kid outside wants to name her unborn baby sister Chocolate Ice Cream. How thoughtful.

I have 3 square canvases that I want to hang in the living room (here they are). The problem is we don't really have a space for them. We have this weird window into the dining room that takes up a big chunk of the wall.To put them below the space would have them almost on the couch. Above the TV is wrong. I need help.

Kat, if you have an unused corner in the living room you could put in a low 12"x12" corner shelf and attach the canvases to each other as the outward sides and top of a cube resting on the shelf.

not your mom's socks.

oh Ita - I am loving ghostschool's drawings. (plus meeting conversation notes were v. apt)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Derby: Well, crap.

Aren't they brilliant? The alphabet is mesmerising. I'm so jealous.

Why would you just up and redesign a keyboard this radically? How did they not think that was going to fuck people over?

Okay, this totally confused me at first. But I get it now. It's like setting a temporary password for your house. Kinda funny.

Matt, that's a great idea. But I have no corners (book cases in two of them, TV in another and the 4th has a hat rack made out of hockey sticks and pucks)

So sad about the horse. A couple of days ago I heard Clinton saying people should bet on the filly and draw a connection between herself and the horse. I hope that she didn't really mean that.

Perkins, I LOVE your clock. That's so something that I would put in Noah's room! Adorable.
