Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

“Not dead yet!”

In between writing on the NaNo project, I've been procrastinating playing on Photoshop.

I'm not done with it-- it's just a first try and I'm not nuts about the font proportions. But I was especially happy with how removing the ad text came out.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I often love John Scalzi: People/Things I Would Vote For President Before I Would Vote For John McCain.

What I particularly love about this entry is how he mentions his Nader rage from 2000; I thought that *I* was the only one who still can't let go of her Nader rage. I seriously ranted about it just the other night, for about 20 minutes, to The Boy. I think he listened so patiently only because he was doped on percocet.

But seriously, y'all. God DAMN.

Anyway, I ALSO love this entry because of #10. Teratoma!

Always Anti-fascist!

Nope. And I used to admire him, too, so that's kind of sad.

Kat, I love this one with the two Things chattering. Also, we have the same Snack Trap.

We have 5 (YES. FIVE) Snack Traps. Or we've purchased 5. I can actually only find 2 of them. The white one is no longer one of them.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Happy Birthday Ginger!

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

The Things are very cute, but I understand Noah's reluctance about the wig. It looks like he's being attacked by a deranged mop.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Happy Birthday and belated congradulations to whomever I'm forgetting.

I was too tired last night to mention how adorable the littlest Buffistas all were in their wee costumes! Ded from the cute, indeed!

I went to a party last night and though I didn't drink that much and made sure I was clear-headed before I drove home, I am pretty worthless today. I've been sitting here since getting up and eating breakfast and am shocked to discover how late it is! Oy!
