Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Shir, I think they've assigned enough bad things to the English that they went with "le stress" to make it clear WHICH English bad thing they were referring to.

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

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

lisa, I DO love that. Especially the sushi pendant.

Sad that they wanted the "pretty" little girl so they milli-vanilla'd the singer.

I like the Potty Mouth necklace.

Also, what is wrong with me that Milli Vanilli isn't my reference for that kind of thing, Martha Wash is?

Art Crawl!!!

Comcast switched Oxygen from one number to another one and therefore, it did not record the cross-country. Thank goodness for the live-video archive.

Didn't catch other Olympics yesterday due to v. busy tivo, so busy that it dumped the Closer before I got to watch it. Annoying.

Coding and Sleeping

As I have been listening to Dune on my commute, I've been struck by the parallels that The Wheel of Time series has to Dune. I'm guessing that Robert Jordan must have been influenced by Dune a fair bit. I gave up on The Wheel of Time for a variety of reasons, but listening to Dune made me think of it.

what is wrong with me that Milli Vanilli isn't my reference for that kind of thing, Martha Wash is?

Being unfamiliar with both, I'd say there's nothing wrong with you using something that resembles my name less and therefore helping my reading of the board without going back to wonder "what was I doing there?"

The Wheel of Time

I've never read those. Then again, it's been forever since I read "Dune".

Me and a friend used to take books from the library - which let us take only one each - read and then quickly trade them and read each other's books (that way we could read two books in the timeframe the library let us read only one, and have the same books in our minds so we could talk about them without fearing of spoiling each other). She was the one who borrowed "Dune", and she literally threw it to my hands after she breezed through it with "you *must* read this *right now*!".
