Always Anti-fascist!

I'd switch teams for Rachel, Kathy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Me too!

Wait a sec....

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

I had to spend a large portion of today looking at gun control laws and especially the NRA's challenges to them.

I feel dirty, and not in the good way.

Heh. I read this after my "me too!" comment:

No kidding. Love is too weak a word to describe how some people feel about Rachel Maddow. They lurve her, loave her, luff her. New York magazine's online Intelligencer column recently ran an item headlined Why We're Gay for Rachel Maddow, and the blogosphere is dotted with posts like "I'm totally gay for Rachel Maddow." The "gay for Rachel" meme appears to transcend gender and sexuality. Women, men, straight and not straight: they're all gay for her. In a year in which we have decided to become postracial and postgender, Maddow may embody a media in which adoring fandom is postgay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've also been whining about my sunburn while my extremely pale mother tells me that it's not a real sunburn, it's just that my skin is slightly pink.

I totally do that. And actually, I got to see it in action when a similarly-colored coworker got a "burn" that actually looked like a nice tan.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm wearing my new merlot shoes (AIFG).

They were talking about that criminalsearches.com site on the radio this morning, and apparently, it is notoriously inaccurate, in that it adds convictions to those who are innocent, or doesn't list ones for felons who've served time.

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

a similarly-colored coworker got a "burn" that actually looked like a nice tan.

Then why call it a burn? Did it still hurt?

I totally overgorged on the lemonade and feel awful. And my stomach is making rumbly noises. Very professonal.

YAY.

I'm going to have to return the peekaboo shoes-- they do weird things to my toes.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

oops, funny how the day can get away from you--I mean from me. Called a plumber on a neighbor's rec and he came right away(!) AANNNND he didn't charge too much(!). I think we found a new plumber. That's my news for the day.

But that's not why I came to b.org. I came to say that my Trashy Diva dress just arrived and it's very stylish but I kind of wish I had followed my instinct about how it would look on my figure. My wee C-cups don't do the dress justice, I need, er, double Ds to properly fill out the bust on the dress. Oh well.
