My Facebook page is superlatively boring; hence, I would not hesitate to show it to anyone, unless it was someone I wanted to dazzle with my wit and creativity.

Go you, Kathy! But, damn, that sucks about your insurance not covering any of it. I don't know why I'm still surprised at just how much basic health maintenance and improvement stuff insurance companies refuse to cover. So stupid, so shortsighted of them.

I think it's been at least a decade since a stranger bought me a drink, and even then it may have been a drink intended to impress my hotter friend with his generosity at treating her entire group to drinks (note to Hec: This was at Rockin' Robin). He probably got a dance out of it, but nothing more.

Gambling leaves me alternately cold and frightened, but I do love fancy hotels and swimming pools so Vegas is in theory all right by me.

Cashmere! Either Kid1 or Kid2 just called me on your cell, or maybe your purse did.

Have fun at the gym.

I tried the slots. It was boring and it just took my money, so I stopped. I guess if you won actual money it might be more interesting, but it just gave me credit toward another pull. Knowing the odds, I decided I could come up with better ways of throwing money away.

Vegas is in theory all right by me.

Am now earwormed with "Jesus is Just All Right By Me", except with 'Jesus' replaced by 'Vegas'.

Vegas is just all right with me
Vegas is just all right, in theory
Vegas is just all right with me
Vegas is just all right

FAIL Stickers, Helping You Publicly Call Out Real-Life Failures

Go Media is selling wonderful FAIL stickers that help you publicly call out real-life failures. They feature the authentic Impact font and a clear background to help produce the realistic effect of tagging something (or someone) as FAIL.

So you know how Republicans are suddenly all concerned about the budget deficit again.

So:

And Republicans have made it clear that they intend to try to shift the economic debate toward concern about the federal deficit.

They are also preparing to use the ballooning deficit to renew their push for additional tax cuts.

So they're still living in Bizarro-land....

Politically, Stimulus Battle Has Just Begun

I'm having one of my favorite lunches. Couscous, bacon, feta cheese, almonds, green beans, dried cranberries. All in a bowl mixed together. I love all in a bowl mixed together food.

Lunch from the cafeteria today is jerk chicken, red beans and rice, and green beans, with a banana for dessert.

At least my lunches are getting healthier! (The cashier was wondering why I wasn't getting any of his super-yummy double-chocolate cookies like I always do, and I told him I'm trying to eat better.)

Parents on Facebook really cramp one's style. As do 12 y-old nephews

The CEO of my company is on Facebook. I felt I kinda had to accept his friending invitation. No "God, I hate my job today" updates for me.

I don't really think so. LJ gets my fangirl stuff and I really don't know what I'm doing on LinkedIn and stuff, because I can't imagine any situation where anyone says "Get her! The brain-damaged novelist wannabe with the Olbermann fixation!" Yeah, right. Except I felt complimented that Victor asked.
