Did you know that today is Magritte's birthday?
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Of course, my best friend in high school had a curfew and was frequently grounded and I think my folks figured her being punished punished me also.
That was my problem my senior year in high school! Although my best friend didn't get grounded, but she did always have a ridiculous curfew.
Speaking of whom, I haven't seen her in years, but I just got a random postcard from her, and now I feel like I should call over Thanksgiving. But I don't really want to. And I'm sure if I don't reach out to her, she won't call me either, since by virtue of the postcard, it is now "my turn." @@

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Ha, I am leaving at 4:30! Pbbbbbht. Of course, I got here at 7:45, so the gloating is unwarranted.
However, right after work I am going to Target to buy Skull pajamas!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to keep saying it because we are trying to bring things back online and it isn't going well. And the person we need most to speak to is unreachable. And their backup quit 2 weeks ago.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Obama wishes Vimes was real so he could put him in charge of the War on Terror. Obama knows Vimes would end that sh*t in five minutes and then smoke a cigar.
Obama's nickname for Rahm Emmanuel is "Vimes".
So. Much. Awesome.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Obama secretly joked on the campaign about McCain being a "wee puppet man."

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