Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

And xkcd continues to geek things up

*Genius*.

“Not dead yet!”

I am SO moving to New England. Just on principle, you understand.

Go, Maine!

A bill is making its way through the New Hampshire House of Representatives- has already passed the Senate. The governor's not a fan, but last I heard, he hadn't made any threat to veto.

Rhode Island I am pretty sure will NEVER pass this kind of legislation. The power structure is pretty Catholic.

Because books.

We are very quiet today. Is everyone actually ... working?!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am watching the cats-- we got a crate and barrel box yesterday and they went INSANE for the packing material. They've been playing with it pretty much since about 9 last night with violent glee. They've never been this interested in anything else in their lives. So the stretchy diamond-perforated paper: Recommended!

I'm doing actual work while listening, oddly enough, to Scandinavian goth metal.

Boxes are so awesome to cats. It's so cute!

I don't have many dog and box stories except for the time our beagle got his head stuck in a box and then ran around bumping into things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Per my cat, nothing is more fun than a plastic bag. Unless it's a rubber band. I'll put plastic bags on the floor for him to play with, until I get paranoid he's going to suffocate himself. ("THIS BAG IS NOT A TOY")

Also, I'm semi-working, and generally surly today.
