Fuck it, Dana. I'm sorry.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I hope they've got something else for you soon, Dana.
The Cold Case premise was remarkably similar to the way a friend's mother started working at an Army base in the '50s.
Bayistas--quake?
Dana, much job ~ma!
Bayistas--quake?
Yikes!
Sorry, Dana. I sure hope something comes up quick.
Magnitude undetermined (as of 10:45).
Ouch, Dana -- good luck.
Aims--I have. It's ouchy but nothing a little ibuprofen can't handle. I found it less painful than a mammogram (or a bikini wax, for that matter).
A quick meara before I go grade:
Ugh, Dana, I'm sorry. That sucks.
There was a quake in the Bay Area? Zoinks! I better go check on some folks.
Gud, she's adorable. And Jesse's right, in the photo she reminds me of Abigail Breslin. Franny has freckles on her nose and I think they are delicious, although they have prompted me to start making her wear hats on sunny days as clearly the 50+ sunblock isn't enough.
bon bon, I keep meaning to say... Immanuel Kat is the best cat name ever.
Today's anniversary of the pencil eraser
On today's date, 1858, Hymen Lipman was granted a patent for attaching a piece of rubber to the end of a pencil. While it was certainly a stroke of genius, the courts didn't think it to be as groundbreaking as one might think. From Smithsonian:
Unfortunately for Lipman, the patent would later be revoked, when the U.S. Supreme Court rules in 1875 that a pencil with an eraser is just a pencil with an eraser and not a new invention.
Bummer. But in honor of this auspicious date, I think I'll erase something with the eraser on my pencil.
