I love Captain Logic and his tugboat. I just had to say.

I suspect that depression may work in a similar, paralyzing, common-sense-defying way? Possibly?

Yes.

Oh... ugh. This has not been a Good Day. (Perhaps not as bad as meara's-- sorry about your hard drive) but something I had for lunch had me feeling vaguely bad most of the afternoon until it finally culminated this evening when I was so violently ill, I pulled something in my back.

This week can be over now, kthnxbye

Oh Barb! I'm so sorry. Gentle hairpats for you.

And meara, I said over in LJ land, but I'll say here too that I'm very sorry for your hard drive loss. So upsetting and so frustrating!

meara, so sorry for your hard drive loss. That is such a frustrating, annoying, upsetting experience.

Barb, hugs, get well ~ma and hairpats for you.

IOmemeN: Dear Tropical Storm Fay, You have spent almost a week here in Florida. Vacation is over. Time for you to go away. As the saying goes fish and company start to smell after 3 days. So, dear storm, you STINK! kthnxbye

I am alive. Yesterday was a hell start, but an ok end. Show looks great, but tech is ungodly slow right now. Which gave me a chance to catch up. If only the wi-fi router kept working. Tons of drop outs. Oh well. Dunno what else to say.

all around

Ohio librarians eat patron livers all year round.

That's only because they are paid so poorly that they can't afford their groceries without a little supplementation.

Thank goodness Daytime Running Lights are slowly taking over as the older cars are winnowed out by entropy.

Just think, sometime in the next five years or so, there should be some that are old and cheap enough for us to afford one.

I made the brownies for WindSparrow.

And they were yummy. Have I mentioned lately that I have the world's best boyfriend?

when I was so violently ill, I pulled something in my back.

Criminy, Barb. I hope you feel better soon.

yeah, worse yet (i posted in tech, but if anyone has suggestions)...when I hooked my ipod up, it did the thing it's supposed to, saying "You have purchased music on your ipod that's not on your computer...do you want to put it on yoru computer?" and I"m like "YES!"...and then SOMEHOW, it fucked up and ERASED IT FROM MY IPOD instead. So now like, 100 songs that I PAID FOR are not only gone from my computer, but gone from my IPOD too. FUCKERS. Because i was consoling myself all along that hey, the pictures were not that big a deal, the documents I could mostly recreate, and the music, I had on my ipod. But now the music is GONE. That's MONEY. MONEY.

ok, funny just happened on stage. We are at the CHRISTMAS scene ("how can he be saved... from the eternal grave...) and one of the actors is in a hilarious Xmas Elf costume. He deadpans to the house and says "I played "Hamlet" in Cambridge".

Cracked. Me. UP!

(could be due to lack of sleep)

Crappity, meara.
