So, theoretically, I could go out and do something with my day before this wedding tonight. But what? Maybe Lord & Taylor. Or Costco, but it's already hot and sticky, and the walk is not appealing. Hmmmm.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Carly Fiorina just said that women would vote for McCain, because pro-choice women will no longer be held hostage to Roe v Wade politics.
It's hard to type with an exploded brain.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
OK, laundry is in. That's something.
Me, too, Jesse. Yesterday, I stayed in my inside pants all day and slounged. It was lovely. Today, however, I need to do stuff. Showered, done. Laundry, started.

So, there's an upside to Palin: Face the Nation had an all-female panel of politicians. At least women are on the air....

That was me, too! I'm trying to decide about when to shower, since I want to be fresh for the thing tonight, but I'm so nasty already! Oh well.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

“Not dead yet!”
I changed out of my pajamas. I consider this a worthy feat. I also have put in a load of sheets and I need to tackle Abby's room, which is, to put it mildly, a Pit of Despair.
I would like to do some writing, but that's best accomplished when there's creativity thrumming through the air. The thrum, I am afraid, she has taken off for a vacation without me. Bitch.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Not only am I wearing outside pants, but I have made it outside. The gas tank has been filled, the ATM has been hit and I am at breakfast. I have Tjs and the farmer's market to go before nap time.

Thrive to spite them
People are going freaking insane around here and the local paper isn't helping.
See, Friday 1 gas station jacked their prices to 5.20/gallong. Which started a panic. There were lines 20 cars line, some jack ass on Saturday threatened a woman with a pellet gun. People are filling their cars and gas tanks and gas stations have run out of gas.
All started on that. Most places went from 3.59 to 3.99. And today there was the headline Gas could go up to 6/gallon later this month with shortages.
Except the information is more -- If the oil refineries have to say closed and if there are transportation issues and if the reserves run out then maybe there could be gas price increase and shortages.
Right now it all seems to be consumer run, at least that was Friday. It's just insane.
