Buffistas

Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

(megan is so getting a huge shout-out in my acknowledgments if this book sells!)

As long as you use my real first name. Much more legitimate for the task at hand. Speaking of which:

"You! You ruin everything." (singular you)

"Toi! Tu gâches tout." (ruin in the sense of spoil)

"You've ruined everything that matters to me, so I only do my best to return the favor." (plural you)

That’s a lot of idioms! It would be helpful to know the exact nuance of “ruin” that you are going for. Otherwise, the closest I can come up with is:

"Vous avez ruiné tout ce qui m’est cher, alors je ferai de mon mieux pour vous le revaloir." (revaloir=to pay back)

Hi. I skipped.

Happy Belated Birthday to Scrappy!

I am more gender neutral websurfer than I thought:

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Does it matter if I do most of my websurfing left-moused?

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.

A lot of belated birthday wishes. Last week I went with the Boy Scout troop I volunteer with to Assateague Island, camping on the beach and dodging the mooching ponies, and I have been struggling to catch up on things since I have returned...

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Every girl who read Misty of Chincoteague just sighed with envy, CaBil.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Indeed, Ginger.

One of my real regrets from living in the Baltiwash area is never going to Assateague to see the ponies.

Ooog. Words I don't like to see first thing in my inbox: we did not stress test this configuration adequately in test.

Yeargh.

I really need to take a day off.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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

Brett Favre is a Jet.

I haven't been following this too closely. Does everyone in Wisconsin hate him now? (Not 'cuz he left, but because he was (I think) being a dick about it?)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When you're a Jet, you're a Jet all the way...
