Can I drink yet? I've been at my computer working since 6. And up til 4 the night before. I do have a few things I really need to get off my plate before tomorrow though. Feh.

Yes, Brenda.

Watch Porn! ("Watch" as a noun.)

10 Watches that Shape the Future of Modern Watchmaking

tommyrot, you're crazy, and should be institutionalized - for showing me watches worth more, each, than I will ever be in my lifetime.

WANT WANT NOW NOW.

So, is anyone missing any devout Christians today? As yesterday was supposed to be the Rapture?

I figure the Rapture will come, a bunch of people will get taken into the sky, and the rest of us will be standing around going, "Well, hell." Then a bright light will appear in the sky and a great voice will say, "OK, now that they're gone, let's get the place straightened up and have some fun."

I like your theory, Connie.

Maybe the Equinox is the cause of the sudden infestation of teeny tiny insects. I swear they were not here this morning but they sure are here now. I have insects all over the clothing I wore to work - just from walking to and from the bus and I cannot swear that I didn't ingest any.

Also if I'm cleaning and she's there to watch me do it, then she feels compelled to do housework too and gets all cranky about it.

I do this! Ooops.

Actually the SO is kinda awesome about housecleaning. But we definitely have different tolerance levels. And his just builds up where chaos is completely fine right up until it isn't. And then he cleans until, like, two in the morning and gets back up at five to finish.

And then I feel guilty and do it too and then I'm grumpy about it. I'm trying to do better with a defensible perimeter strategy. I started with the master bedroom & bathroom. Those are currently completely clean. So I do small straightening tasks in those rooms to keep them clean. That way when I wake up first thing in the morning I'm not in a mess straightaway.

Of course, as soon as I walk out the door, the dining room table is a wreck, but we'll work on expanding the perimeter as soon as I'm actually maintaining.

Oh lord, I got halfway through making a Rapture crack at work the other day when I realized my some-flavor-of-hard-core-evangelical junior J was 5 feet away. (Literally halfway, like "maybe K got Rap---urk, nothing".) I don't think she heard. One of the people I was talking to totally got where I was going, but fortunately not the one who would be likely to run tell J.

She's my direct report, and I have no idea if she's actually a Rapture type or not, but I do know the general size of the gulf between us on things like this (epic) so I never talk religion at work, ever. This one got away from me.

[Values of never that exclude probably too much cussing, but really, that's not going to change, and it's really not the same thing.]

Here's the Doc Horrible segment for you.

Awesome! Thanks.

Oh, right, I didn't get raptured, but I did develop a theory on maybe why all porn is gay porn. It's the cocks! Right? You might be innocently watching porn and accidentally see a cock and, whammo, teh gay1!!1

I don't actually know. No one I know thinks all porn is gay porn. I mean, as far as I know. The subject of porn actually doesn't come up all that often in my evangelical Christian circles. Not as often as pot luck dinners, anyway.
