Not exactly neutral, but there's always Jon Stewart.

My cats' stomachs are still on Daylight time and when their internal dinner bell has rung, there is no peace for me until they're fed.

SO MUCH THIS. grrr. Sylvester found a plastic bag at 5:30.

ION - I introduced mac to Calvin and Hobbes last night. He doesn't get a lot of it yet, but he likes Hobbes.

I don't care about baseball either, AIIFG!

However, I love awards show so much, I will even watch the local high achool musical theatre award show which is televised yearly in my area...

Awards shows: For people who think baseball goes too fast.

I forgot to say that it's great to see Kiba and read her news.

Barb, I hope Tino backs off and your day gets exponentially better.

[side note: I have a student named Tino this semester so it continually cracks me up to see the Buffistas blame him for everything.]

Scrappy, I hope your back is better for your day o'travel.

I think I am the anti-goth. Only about 2% of my wardrobe is black and I listen to country music and broadway showtunes.

I was supposed to take today off. I had a dentist appt in the middle of the day, and since we can't take partial days, I was gonna take the whole day.

And then it got rescheduled for December.

I really wanted today off.

ChiKat - I listen almost exclusively to showtunes, so I'm not sure that's anti-goth. (Of course, yesterday, I discussed with my husband exactly which showtunes were and were not Goth... We determined that the Phantom of the Opera, the Jekyll & Hyde Concept Album, and Sweeney Todd are all decidedly goth.) But the tiny black wardrobe and the country music may put you firmly in that category.

Though it occurs to me that it probably really doesn't matter who is and is not goth anyway.

I completely agree with every single one of these statements. Can I have a nap now?

I have one of those overly organized closets. It makes it very clear that I have a) very little imagination and b) I'm more comfortable in black than any other color. Black stretch velvet makes up for at least 20 percent of the 97% black in my wardrobe. (so comfy)

Considering that I get the vast majority of my new clothes through clothing exchanges, I assume that I'm the repository for all my black-curious friends who give up on the palette.

My problem with wearing black is that I am blonde, green eyes, pale skin. I look like I'm about to pass out or be sick when in black. So, the black I do own tends to go at the bottom of me. Which in my world means pants because I don't wear skirts hardly ever.

Forget baseball -- the Saints are on Monday Night Football. There might be some frenzy.
