Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, they rated Brad Pitt over them, which is an understandable mistake, but Mark Wahlberg at #1? Mmm, no.

No, he's kinda cute, and a way better actor than I expected, but nobody's hotter than Clooney and Denzel.

That's just wrong.

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

*unlike* a dashing, adulterous, fighter pilot.

McCain was a bomber pilot. I guess it doesn't make any difference, but I've seen the "McCain was a fighter pilot" thing a lot, so it bugs me.

He flew an A-4 Skyhawk from a carrier. Pictures of A-4s: [link]

The A-4 was a cool plane, so small for its job.

Yeah. The Blue Angels flew A-4s for a while, so I guess it's kinda' fighter-ish....

I don't know the difference, actually. My mistake.

Grrr.

I hate dealing with Doctors.

Noah's referral to the retinal specialist expired before they'd fucking give him an appointment (yes. at children's. Hahahaha) He hasn't had a follow up for 10 months.

My doctor had an appt at 4 to see me about the fever. But I can't get there on time and I have Noah so I can't do everything and still get my son on time. He wants me to go to urgent care (yes, I was just there two days ago... they were the ones who found the fever) for bloodwork. Um. No. If I can't get to your office, there is no way I can get to urgent care.

Kat, that is crazy.

In less crazy news, just because I was curious, I looked at what the DJIA has lost (percentage-wise) since this time last year (close to when it was at its all-time-high).

The answer? About 22%. The same amount it lost in one day (Black Monday) in 1987.

Somehow this makes me feel better.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

so I come home to a postcard notification that my gas will be terminated in 5 days because they show use, but not a request for service. Um, I've been here for 6 YEARS!! And yeah, turns out I never activated my gas. 6 YEARS!!!! How do they just now notice and how did I miss that my utility bill was electric only, I thought it was both this whole time. HATE HATE HATE!
