My university is having an inaugural ball, but it's sold out already.

I am watching What Not To Wear but it's not distracting me sufficiently from fretting about work. I suspect I will spend the entire weekend convinced that I suck.

You do not suck. You did the work of two people this week. If you can concentrate on Atlantis, it will make you feel better.

In my universe, shrift is pretty much the definition of awesome.
Let me go check.

Let me take back the amending qualifier. Turns out that shrift is the definition of awesome.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
One of the towns in this county will not tolerate blacks to live there. Realtors won't even show a black family a home in Homosassa
The town is called "Homosassa" and the bigots are worried about Black people? I want to start a gay resort there out of spite.

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

"Yep, this is Homosassa, located jes' three miles out of Spite. Y'all have a fabulous time now."

if T and her dad aren't planning on going down for the Inauguration, I'd like to see if I could take her (& msbelle & mac if they decide to come down.) It IS a school and work day, but... It'd be awesome.
My house is open to any Buffistas that want to crash. When we run out of beds, there is floor space.
I have to work today, bah!

Hmmmm... you never know, I might still be unemployed then. (Though I hope not).
I DO have a brunch this weekend! Which means I'd better get some Stuff done today. If it doesn't rain, I'm going to have to rake some leaves....

Our wings are not tired.
Got caught up, but now time for me to get to work.

Women who experience migraines may actually have a 30 percent lower risk of developing breast cancer, say researchers from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle.
Sounds a bit like fuzzy science, but any kinds of link that they find in research may lead to relief for the people that suffer from migraines.
