I did not know JMS wrote the Changeling script. Cool. It looked interesting on TDS. I may have to actually get myself to a movie.

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

Weird thing happened to me yesterday - a kid hit me. I was walking to the train station in Evanston after work, when two kids (who looked to be about 18) were walking towards me. When they got near me, they stood on the sidewalk, intentionally blocking my way. I said, "Excuse me," and squeezed between them, at which point one of the kids punched me in the upper arm/shoulder. It didn't hurt at all, so it was no big deal. But still, intentionally blocking someone's way is something that you just don't do, right? I mean, they could have asked me for money, tried to steal my laptop, or even tried to tell me about Jesus.

I cannot parse JMS this morning.

Sara, I think I stole your sleep. mac did nto wake up at the crack of ass this morning (miracle #1), did not have bad dreams or wet bed (miracle #2), stayed in his room after he woke up (miracles #3-10 because that has NEVER happpened), got dressed before I was up (miracle #11), and was MAKING HIS BED by himself (miracle #12).

I apologize in advance for the crappy mornings I am assuming this windfall for me will cause.

Freaky. Are you sure mac isn't possessed by a good spirit or something?

Hey, you deserve easy mornings!

tommy, some people just suck.

Something that should be routine and easy is turning into this whole dramariffic deal because the usual suspects are out. Sigh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

JMS is J. Michael Straczynski, who created the TV Show Babylon 5, and is the screenwriter of Clint Eastwood's new film.

“Not dead yet!”

Okay, I seriously need to strap on my Big Girl Panties. I still have this email from Agent Kate with her suggested revisions for a YA manuscript that I haven't been able to bring myself to open. Not because of anything she's done, but due to the publishing craxy in my life this past year, I'm more than a little gun shy.

I am such a wuss.

The goverment is now toying with the idea of giving the banks even more money in return for (preferred) stock. In most counries this would be called nationalizing the banks. Who would have thought that the Bush/Cheney administration would go down in history as bigger socialists than FDR? The plan would be voluntary, but it still undercuts a basic tenet the Republican Party has held sacred for a century: the government should leave the private sector to manage itself. It will be interesting to see how the candidates respond to this new wrinkle.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Right.
