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

Damn, I flaked on cereal with Kat.

Kat! Tomorrow?? I could leave the house.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oy. Soriano goes down on three pitches, the last one a check swing strike. You can't be more ineffectual than that.

Cubs are swept. One hundred years and counting.

Now I'm rooting for a Red Sox v. Dodgers series. Can you imagine Manny versus Papelbon with the game on the line? How about Nomar vs. Dice-K? Derek Lowe vs. Youk? Lotta angles. Not to mention Torre versus Francona.

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

Also, the Cubs are now in a 9-game postseason losing streak.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Dear God. It's another morning, after a week of blessed holiday, and I already accidentally plugged (in?) the toaster instead of the toaster oven (to warm my muffin in order to not drift to existential existent morning).

OK, so I'm a fucking drama queen. A girl should have her fun.

Gronk, I believe.

Edit: I burned the damn muffin. Now installing Chrome.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Cubs are swept.

Huh. This is the scenario they should've had the bar cutoff for.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Dear relatively new friends of mine,

You cannot call me "cutie". Or "babe". Nor "baby". Or "sweetie".
These reserve to people who knows me for a long time, I'm confidante of their personality, link and affection to me and vise versa, and ran out of names to me (for my name isn't very nicknamey in Hebrew).

Also, it's morning. I need a hard dose of sarcasm, not fake sugar.

Love,
She who doesn't want to stick sharp objects in her eyes.

I need more coffee.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Hope you found more coffee, Shir, and that you're not slumped over your keyboard in a daze!

I woke up early but then I went to sleep fairly early (10?) so it should balance out.

I just watched last night's SNL Palin sketch and had to stop it several times because I was laughing too hard to follow it. Not only did they nail Palin, their Biden impersonation was awesome, and Queen Latifah had to work overtime not to crack up. Kudos to all -- SNL has just justified its continued existence for the past ten years or so.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh, I had. It was good.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

back at work! Or technically, waiting for Engineer#2 to show up so we can go inside. Did I mention BLEH!!!!!

ION I got used to texting on the iphone's vertical keyboard and now I'm using it in landscape and it's taking me forever to type anything

Kat! Tomorrow?? I could leave the house.

Ok!! We're at the Petersen Museum at 10:00 for K's class but we pretty much have all afternoon.
