You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh lord, I'm almost out of kernels, and I swear to god, none of my regular grocery stores carry them. Traumatic!

I got all excited because I found a coupon for 10% off labor over $100 at my mechanics, and this is no doubt going to be over $100.

It expired Saturday.

I think my DVR is gaslighting me. First of all, were last night's Daily Show and Colbert Report reruns? Because that's what I have taped. Then, I taped the West Wing pilot yesterday, and it's not there any more. I don't understand!

The good news is that I do have this West Wing special with interviews with tons of people who've been in the White House, including presidents.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

which kernels do you buy, Jesse?

Ads to make you gay. SFW, unless you're looking at it from afar.

Proof, bread! Heat, oven!

Is anyone watching My Worst Enemy? I never thought I'd see myself saying this, but I think it should be more independently episodic. It can't be easy to pick up a few eps in, or come back after missing some.

Whatever I can find, at this point.

Ha! I just sent a "Want to do lunch this weekend?" to five friends and immediately got three "Out of Office" until Monday replies. Kinda think I'll be on my own for lunch, huh? Also, WHERE ARE THEY ALL AND WHY WASN'T I INVITED??!?!

I am intrigued by this butter & mustard topping of which you speak. Is it a homemade concoction?

Everyone I work with is on vacation this week too, for whatever reason.

Can anyone confirm the re-run-itude of last night's Daily Show and Colbert for me?

Also, I really forgot how good the West Wing was.

Yeah. I think it was the dilaudid speaking, but I dropped a dollop of Dijon into browned butter, and it was luverly.

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

Parrot credited with choking tot rescue

DENVER, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- A Denver area babysitter said her pet parrot may have saved the life of a 2-year-old girl by raising a ruckus when the toddler started choking.

The babysitter, who gave her name as Meagan, said she was using the bathroom in her home while babysitting for the 2-year-old, Hannah, when she heard her parrot, Willie, screaming wildly, KCNC-TV, Denver reported Monday.

"Willie started screaming like I'd never heard him scream before and he started flapping his wings," Meagan said. "Then he started saying 'mama baby' over and over and over again until I came out and looked at Hannah and Hannah's face was turning blue because she was choking on her pop tart."

Meagan said she performed the Heimlich maneuver and stopped the young child's choking.

"If (Willie) wouldn't have warned me, I probably wouldn't have come out of the bathroom in time because she was already turning blue, her lips were blue and everything," Meagan said.
