Hippo birdies, Jon!
I'm in PA with Mom today, who is definitely doing much much better, albeit still on oxygen, but bright-eyed and able to do most things for herself. We may be able to relax Operation Mom-Watch to weekends in the near future.
Joyce: And what did you do tonight? Dawn: Irritated Giles. I'm beginning to get why Buffy likes it so much.

“Not dead yet!”
I am over my snit. It's amazing how cathartic an unfiltered snit followed by an elegantly worded smack down can be.
I was Rizzo. Even if in real life I was always more Sandy in 'tude.
I woke up this morning with my neck in a strange position and the muscles hard as rocks, hence I have a headache. I've popped ibu and am nursing a headache.
But... happy birthday, Jon! May it be a great day!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthday, Jon!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Happy birthday, Jon!!!

Hmm... I'm pretty sure I had a brilliant thought about work on the subway, but now I can't remember what it was. And in fact, I'm a little afraid it came in a dream. Darn it!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
If we can't have Buffista Island, maybe we can have Buffista Cave?
Cave house for sale in Festus, MO
$300,000 is the starting bid on this eBay listing for a three-bedroom home built in a 15,000 sqft cave in Festus, MO, formerly a roller-rink/concert venue that entertained the MC5, Ike and Tina Turner and Ted Nugent. Sounds like a hell of a place to live (and you gotta feel for the family that's losing their dream). It's got three freshwater springs and there are fourteen waterfalls on the property. Yowza.
On May 19th, 2008, the City of Festus approved our occupancy inspection for the cave. Officially, this completed our project. There are still projects that can be started, completed and developed. Plenty of room in our 17,000 square foot home.
This is now where we live, work, raise our family and celebrate life! Here are a few of the details about the place: Historic, regionally famous cave: 15,000 square feet, divided into three main chambers.
The front chamber houses the main part of the 3-bedroom finished house.
The middle chamber holds the laundry room, storage, and a spare bath. The middle chamber made a great party room. 80 feet by 80 feet.
The back chamber still has the stage where Ted Nugent, Bob Seger, Ike and Tina Turner, the MC5 and many other bands performed.
Property: 2.8 scenic, partially wooded acres provide excellent privacy and the feel of the country right in the middle of town, just several blocks from shopping, dining, and other conveniences.
Energy efficiency: Geothermal and passive solar keep the home comfortable year-round without a furnace or air conditioning. In spite of the vast size of the home, our energy costs here run about the same as they did in our 800 square-foot starter home. The home naturally stays a little cooler than the average above-ground home, but we found that we acclimated quickly and easily.
