Thanks, Perkins.

The deadline is on Thursday, so no matter what, handed in or not, I'll get to return to a normal sleep schedule after that. Right now, that seems almost as tempting as the actual, y'know, meeting of the deadline.

[Edit: I'm loving how I get all the Olympics Natter, without getting to watch anything at all - in one way, I have no idea what's going on, but in another, I know all the important stuff. Neat.]

Phelps looks like a Cardassian, and not in a good, slash-him-with-Bashir way. (Although, really, with Gul Dukat, it was all about the personality, not the looks.)

Perhaps I just need to see pictures of him where he's not doing that freaky neck thing.

I grew to love Dukat's looks too, I must admit. I think he's hotter than Phelps.

I'm having a style crisis in which I want to compensate for the fact that I'm behind in laundry and dry cleaning by doing more shopping. I already have all the clothes in the world! I have to stop myself. I can at least make it to the end of the month without buying anything new, and then who cares? It's not like I'll be working.

Thanks for the remote suggestions. When I search the web everything that comes up first is luxury, and I don't really care.

Michael Phelps's dog is so cute. And the thing about what he eats is hysterical!

Holy crap! Chinese gymnasts on the rings! Shoulders! Wow!

Is it wrong that I want to be eating ice cream while I watch the Olympics? Sadly, I have none.

That's only a couple of months away for me. Oy.

javachick, I am infamous for my practical sensibilities. If it works for you, do it unapologetically.

Okay. I shall take measurements and decide on which size I need, all UNAPOLOGETICALLY!

Thanks!

javachick! I just saw your beautiful dog on flickr! She looks so much like Kuma!.

I'm having a style crisis

I'm having a style crisis in that my clothes are getting worn out or not fitting me anymore. I need to cull my closet and then do some shopping.

I don't want to spend very much until I start getting a regular paycheck again. Target seems to have some cute dresses.

Target does have great dresses. I gotta say, Target rocks. They Get It. They have fantastic marketing ideas, get in very cool designers, the whole shebang.

Kat! I saw your comment on the Flickr page before I saw it here, so I asked you if (beautiful) Kuma is a Shiba Inu?

Nilly, Dylan isn't swimming in the dip, but he indeed wearing it.

Question: is it okay to talk about a television show here casually? Or do I need to find the proper thread? I've just Netflixed and devoured (the first dvd of) Damages and am now watching Mad Men in between Phelps races. Holy cow that is some awesome teevee.
