You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Dana, his heart was in the right place.

However, getting a TiVo would have solved the problem. ::evile grin::

The only thing I've accomplished today so far is changing the litter box.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

So far today, I woke up, ate a few blackberries, played around on the internet for a while, and then ate some soup. Sometime soon, I'm going to get dressed and go grocery shopping.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh. I am too lazy today to spell right! I would like to be outside, but can't get off the couch.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

sarameg: mine hide in the under-sink cabinets, too. Leo seems to have taught Percy to open the doors, and they close by themselves.

Palin resigning is strange. The way she did it is even stranger. It stomps on her chances for continuing on in politics, but she loves attention. She's got something in mind, maybe television.

Juliebird: something has been snacking on my hostas. My sister says it's a rabbit, but it's eating the tops of them too. That's a tall rabbit. Maybe it's a deer. It hasn't discovered the begonias yet. My sister said, the way to keep the nibblers away is to pee on the plants. I don't know if I care that much.

Last night I slept for 12 hours. Whoa. I didn't think I drank that much. Today I've managed to clean litterboxes and do some laundry. I need to clean up the office, but it doesn't seem to be happening.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Zenkitty, I don't think the deer can really get at my patio, it's a really sharp drop from the ridge, and i would have expected more damage by now. Last year at work we had a mysterious nibbler that would nip the flower buds off the sunflowers and marigolds that were three and four feet off the ground, with now signs of climbing or bending the plant over. And we have a deer fence. I'm beginning to suspect birds are also culprits.

I usually motivate myself to move by imagining how embarrassed I'd be if the neighbors knocked on the door at this very moment.

...And I'm up!

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

I think it is contagious. I even went out to buy a bagel, but my butt forced me to come back to the sofa.

Hmmm, spray painting the heat register maybe wasn't such a great idea /waiting for the extra paint to finish drifting

ION, partial squashing of a house centipede, and thus removing several of it's many legs in the process, led me to discover that, like the daddy-long-leg, the legs still keep twitching. Except there's more.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I woke up, sprayed a wasp that was lurking in my living room, cleaned up the wasp spray, and then finally got to lounge around slurping coffee. Oy.

But I had a hair appointment at 11, and I'll be going to a party tonight, so on the whole the day is a win.
