It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So far this morning, I have paid a parking ticket (my first non-LA ticket!), set up my new Office Monkey set, and put out the firm gift for the filer.

So glad I had to come to work today.

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

Springfield 25: The Top Simpsons Supporting Characters

I didn't know this (and it cracked me up):

Random Trivia: The Rich Texan has an heiress daughter named Paris Texan.

And I had heard this Wiggum quote, but reading it still cracked me up:

Memorable Quote: “This is Papa Bear. Put out an APB for a male suspect, driving a…car of some sort, heading in the direction of, uh, you know, that place that sells chili. Suspect is hatless. Repeat, hatless.”

Didn't know this either:

Random Trivia: Krusty once hosted the Krusty Komedy Klassic (KKK) at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York. Needless to say, the show wasn’t a success.

Having a yummy bagel for lunch -- took Mom for a pulmonary function test, which wasn't nearly as favorable as one might like, though it's not clear to me how unfavorable it was, comparatively. At least the tech wasn't like "get her to an ER stat!" so that's something.

Swouncing

so I will get on that

My inner Jewish mommy says "Oy vey", which should be in a cheering way, if she wasn't, well, an inner Jewish mommy.

At least the tech wasn't like "get her to an ER stat!" so that's something.

Still, lots of health vibes for her.

We had "hotstickers" from the freezer. The children didn't like them, and are eating hot dogs instead.

It is sunny! I was so tired of rain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good thoughts for your mom (and you!), Theo.

The NYT years in pics. The one of Arts and Entertainments is gorgeous. I should add, I mean it's of Irina Dvorovenko's back.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The idea that Texas and the deep South would submit to Mexican rule is disturbingly hilarious.
