Eh, I was hoping he'd read the post and at least pick up some flowers.

Aw! You're always thinking of me.

So I'm about 20 min into the movie Dungeons & Dragons. Please tell me it gets better.

Dude, I know the answer to that question and I haven't even seen it.

Ya I suspect the answer is "not a chance". I'm going to blame it on the fever.

I've seen this movie. Think of it as an opportunity to think how you would do this sort of thing better.

Can't sleep, again. As usual.

Like Kristin, I've never seen it, but I know it gets no better.

I need a vacation. For various reasons, all the holiday breaks this year have been stressful, so I haven't gotten any real relaxation since the summer. I've got a few days off next week for the inauguration, which will be fun but not relaxing, and then nothing until spring break in the middle of March. And it's too cold to go bike ride along the canal, which is what I usually do when I'm getting this stressed.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Windsparrow, I have to say, those were the best batch I ever made too. Just a hint of crisp on the outside, chewey on the inside, and yummy all around. I'd offer to make you a batch, but I'm afraid I won't be able to recreate that perfection again. I may never bake Choco Chip cookies again

Eh, I'm doing the "avoiding sugars and starches" thing anyway. Gotta say, mood and energy level are delicious. Just started this past Monday, and by Thursday, I was scaring myself how much I getting done at work. So for a reward to reap, that's pretty good. And it's not like I can't have any chocolate, just have to stick to the really good dark stuff.

I need a couple of wise cracking robots so I can MST3K this flick.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

So, question for other people: were you always good, academically, at whatever it is you ended up doing or being good at as an adult?

Pretty much. Though they did think I had a disability around age two, and my PhD brother was given professional assessment because he was still barely talking at age four.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I laughed out loud at this from Overheard Everywhere.

The tests I was given were because I had a lot of trouble with arithmetic. I was fine with the concepts, but just couldn't remember all the arithmetic facts. (Like, given 26+18, I could explain to you why you add six plus eight and why you carry the one, but I'd also be pretty likely to tell you that six plus eight was 13, or 17, or pretty much any other number in the teens was about as likely as me saying 14.)

My academic skills of the past have no relation to what I do for a living.

Sad, but true. My job skills came out of hobby stuff

So, anyone else think The Divine Ms Maddow's partner looks a LOT like Fay in this shot? [link]
