Wash ,'The Message'
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.
Oscar Pistorius, the double-amputee sprinter who was barred from able-bodied competition in January, will be allowed to pursue his dream of qualifying for the Olympic Games after an unexpected decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
I think the decisions/reactions to this have been really interesting in where people think the lines should be drawn.
Cashmere, that is totally irritating!
Saturday we are cleaning the garage since neighborkitty has been stealing more than socks and underwear out of there. Then we are going to the strawberry festival in Oxnard.
Sunday I am taking Noah to the Little Tokyo Funfest with Lori and then we are going to Milk and Bookies at Storyopolis.
Sox, I'm writing up a Vegas + Baby article for you. It may take a while.
Weekend:
Tonight, go to CalArt's graduation with ND. (He teaches there part time.) Apparently these graduations are...unique. Pink bunny suits and rappelling down the sides of buildings unique.
This weekend...no plans whatsoever. Kind of cool, actually.
My plans this weekend?
FINALLY mail my friend's new baby present. Watch the Preakness.
Saturday: help out friend who is having a teenage amazing race birthday party and teach an abbreviated childbirth class for a friend.
Sunday: church, laundry, maybe some packing for the trip

ROCK.
Saturday: collapse on couch, catch up on Lost and Season 3 of Top Chef (thank you TiVo!)
Sunday: cook and bring over dinner for my aunt who had knee surgery a few weeks ago.
Aha! This is from a 2001 Vanity Fair article about furries. Katharine Gates made the map.
Gates's book features chapters on fat admiration, pony play, balloon fetishists, and, on the dark side, the crush freaks. Her Web site, deviantdesires.com, has a forum in which different fetishists can talk to one another -- the women who masturbate with bathtub toy boats can talk to the plushies, and so on.
Tonight I'm going to do laundry, watch Galactica, and clean frantically. Tomorrow I'm going to buy booze, clean frantically, & then have people over for a soiree. Sunday I think I'll sleep.
dear work people:
- guy I've emailed twice - a response, anytime - it's been over an hour and the email from the other person involved that also raised questions, that came in overnight - RESPOND!
- guy that I need #s from. Yu sit 10 feet from me. Your peer, not me asked you for this info before 8am. C'MON!
- guy that has had research to do on my stuff for over a month - DO IT!
- guy in boss' office - get out so I can get things signed!
GRR,
me.
It might just be that I do in fact have to choke a bitch today.
Ah. We need to contact Katharine Gates and demand ask for an answer on the toy boat fetish issue....
