I immediately yelled out the safeword (billyteabillyteabillytea) and backbuttoned my way out of Hulu.
Please. Danger is my middle name. And my first and last. I wound up being unable to watch the Crocodile Hunter, what with all the shoutouts.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

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

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Those penguins were in mortal peril, man. I was trying to save them. Well, save me from watching them die. I think their actual fate was sealed before I hit play.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's apparently 18 and snowing out here, but you people have me thinking at least it's above zero...
Also, I have a small pimple on the edge of my lip, and I would like people to know it's not a cold sore. But will refrain from telling people that in person. I hope. t /TMI

12F and pretty still here.. so far.
A penguin's life is pretty brutish and short. Well, especially "short". Don't let the cute feathers fool you, they'd eat you if you were small enough or they were big enough.

Our wings are not tired.
All people in super cold places should play hooky and stay in inside pants today. Just tell the boss Laura said so.
I was in fact agreeing. But my post was unable to contain my dorkitude.
I need to read this more often so I am snagging for a tag.

Now tagless for your comfort.
It's -18 degrees here. I have no idea what the windchill is but I think it's moot because I'm not going outside.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
It's -1 here-abouts. We have a 2-hour delay, but it looks like they're not canceling, so I must brave the cold and go to work.

It's -18 here too and I'm at the office.
Luckly, as I was walking to the bus stop a co-worker from a department upstairs from me saw me and gave me a lift.
It wasn't even windy and I was getting cold. (My coat is supposed to be good to -20 and it was keeping me warm. But my legs were getting cold.)
School is closed all over northern Illinois and Uh, the university is still open. Tuesday/Thursday classes are typically more busy but hardly anyone was walking to class.

It was 6 here today this morning. Actually felt warmer than when it was 16 yesterday morning because there was almost no wind.
Tomorrow morning's supposed to be in the -2 to 3 range. And snowing. Ugh.

It's only -16 c here, plus windchill, but it's still too damn cold.
Also, I got a new Nano - a refurbished 3rd gen - yesterday. I realized that TiVo to go lets me convert TV shows that I've saved and put them on my Nano. Practically, I'll probably never use it (i get nauseous trying to read on the bus, I'm sure TV would be the same), but it did make me love my Tivo more, and I didn't think it was possible to love my TiVo more than I already do.
