When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

Hurrah, Lucy!

Congrats bonbonBobBob!

Good for you, Kathy!

I still have a cold. Why-o-why?

“Not dead yet!”

Yay for me getting tomorrow off of work! I can sleep in, decompress, and run errands such as taking the cat in for a claw-trimming, grocery shopping, post office (for Barb--yes, I am going to finally mail your package out to you!), and possibly donate platelets.

Yay, you for getting off work and I wasn't worrying, sweetie-- the time you've been having, decompress first. Everything else can wait.

Thanks for the horsy pictures, Tom.

I've had your package in my car all ready to go for a week now, so it's just a matter of stopping at the post office to mail it.

ION, there's a great slideshow of photos from Obama's Denver speech yesterday here.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The mama dog just showed up on the puppy webcam!

btw, is "Friend of Dorothy," "Family" or "Betty" still used in gay culture? I feel so out of touch these days....

A youngish (maybe mid-30s) cab driver in Vegas this summer asked my lady bandmates and I if we were "family" but I thought it was kind of an old-fashioned term.

Hivemind: is there a standard conversion of words to minutes when you're writing a speech? I need to write a 15-minute talk (that will not actually be delivered), and have no idea what ballpark to be thinking about in terms of word or page count.

I've been following it at Cute Overload, but I'm sure there's a more direct link somewhere else.
