I look more rad than Lutheranism

I was going to link to the Klein hat (and Moebius scarf), but I should have known that another smarty-pants would have gotten there before I did.

(In my defense, we were watching S5 of Buffy -- Into the Woods [ptui] and Triangle.)

I love the Acme Klein Bottle site -- they're so cheerfully geeky! For instance:

Pop an Acme Klein Bottle on your head!

It's ideal for skiing, sleigh-rides, snowball fights, midwinter colloquia, Antarctic beach parties, and alpine chess tournaments. A perfect gift for anyone with a zero-volume head. An important accessory to the one-sided mind. An essential headwarmer for your non-orientable friends who are temporarily immersed in our 3-dimensions.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I did good at Macy's today. Got a new bra and a pretty shirt and two pairs of high-waist wide leg jeans. One black, one blue. [link] I suspect that these are out of style, but they are perfect for work, look fabulous on and were only $25.

They're really, really warm?

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

I've been shopping for jeans for about a year now. Have yet to purchase a pair.

I am not a good shopper, at least not when it comes to jeans.

So I think I'm gonna pay for an extra day of daycare for my daughter tomorrow as I need to go to work and so does DH and school doesn't start until Wednesday. Hope it isn't too anticlimactic for her, what with the big party on Friday for the last day of preschool. Oops.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I got TWO bean and cheese burritos

One to appease the spider?

I don't see the spider, so it no longer exists. My cat and I agree.

My parents got me an Acme Klein Bottle as a present for passing my specialty exam. I don't think they had any idea what it actually was -- I think that my mom just googled "math gift" or something like that and it came up, and then she emailed the guy who runs the site to ask if it would be a good present for someone who just passed a math specialty exam, and he said yes.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm still looking for drawsting jeans. I think Orvis has a pair.

Interesting quote (about Bristol Palin) [link] :

“Families get in trouble all the time,” said Rick Scarborough, a pastor and the founder of the conservative advocacy group Vision America. “From what I see this family is dealing with it honorably. They are going to carry this baby to a full term as a further testimony of their commitment to life.”

"They"?

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

"They"?
