You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

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

I just got back from Chinatown. Ate at a Chinese restaurant (duh) that had one of those menus with pictures of the various dishes. One that caught my eye was the deep-fried pigeon. It was a whole fucking pigeon, with the head and everything! OK, they removed the feathers and feet and presumably the innards, but still....

You know, I think I'd have to be drunk and have lost a bet in order to eat deep-fried pigeon. Or perhaps drunk and trying to impress a girl.

Oh, and the worst t-shirt I saw on the train: It was a cartoon guy smiling and holding up a sign that said, "Free Gas!" The cartoon guy was farting. Somehow this guy had a girlfriend.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Fancy Fast Food is genius.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm watching a televised production of Camelot from last year, which I've had on tape since before we moved. It's...not very good. Gabriel Byrne can't sing, Mordred is a gay goth, and I am forewarned that Fran Drescher appears as Morgan LeFay.

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

To be fair, Richard Harris couldn't really sing, either. But the rest of it sounds pretty appalling.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Lancelot is fantastic, and Marin Mazzie is playing Guinevere. But. Why do they cast people who can't sing, especially in a concert version?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

I just found my passport. AFTER, natch, spending $179 expediting a new one.

I'm trying out veggie italian sausage on the grill. Also brussel sprouts and sweet onions. I'm not entirely optimistic at this point.

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

I wish obtaining sushi didn't require outside pants.

I think my dad tried to fix my sink. He did solve the water pressure issue. But. It leaks now. (Pretty sure it is the valves on the faucets that are shot.) They are off for a walk, so I'll have to ask when he gets back.

I'm laughing, honest.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Who needs outside pants? Both my brothers go out in their jammy pants and slippers all the time.
