The A's have just been dispiriting to watch even with some talented young pitching. Too many guys hitting .240 or less. Feh.
Not as dispiriting as the Royals who need to win a frakking game sometime. I believe they have lost 8 of their last 8 games.
Mal: You want to tell me how come there's a statue of you here looking at me like I owe him something? Jayne: Wishing I could, Captain.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am moderately cranky today, and my annoying boss and her even more annoying assistant are having stupid conversations that I can't help but listen to! Maybe if I did some actual work, that would help. Meh!
We could talk about Big Brother, and how stupid Ronnie is instead.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, right, Perkins?!?!?! What a freaking idiot. I mean seriously.

OK, this is a good one: I just came across someone whose title is "Open Source Diva."

It looks like Gmail wants me to donate to a fund to encourage Sarah Palin to run for president in 2012. Despite the potential entertainment, I have to decline.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Sad I cannot muster enough to get into BB this year.
woke with a start at 5:30 from a dream where someone accidentally fell from a window - not calming. so, am also a wee cranky.
half of me wants to crank through work and clear my desk, the other half wants to play hookey and go home. I think this means I will stay at work, but get little to nothing done.

Last night Leif had his first ER visit. My wife took the kids up to the community center to swim. Apparently Leif was jumping into the pool and hit his head on a giant plastic turtle.
I got a call to meet her at the ER, but she was too stressed, understandably, to tell me what was going on. I got there so quickly, I actually beat them to the ER and was briefly very confused.
Once he got there he ended up getting 10 stitches in his head. Getting the local was a bit traumatic, but the stitches were no problem. He questioned the doctor about what he was doing and commented several times that it was all very relaxing.
He got some ice cream afterwords and now is looking forward to showing his classmates. He also wondered if he looked like Frankenstein. Leif asked the doctor who gave Frankenstein his stitches and the doctor told him it was Dr. Frankenstein. I refrained from saying, "No, it's Fronkensteen".

Yikes, Leif! Although, he's made it a good long while without an ER trip...

Perkins, you want to meet me in the Non-Fiction thread?
