Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wanted to throw down.

I knew it!

For a good cause--for the cause of righteousness. I throw down for nothing less.

There's a team lunch next week. Is that billable time? That's probably not billable time. But it should be billable time. It's two hours!

What's the plot of Legend... nevermind. Wikipedia will tell me.

It's very much a "if we can do it, anyone can" thing.

We should all get our own reality show?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Tonight, try to recover from the Work Week From Hell plus cookie-baking and massive house-cleaning.

Tomorrow, Holiday Open House in afternoon, plus in-laws staying overnight.

Sunday, get rid of In-Laws, then off to see Invictus (I hope).

BTW, any LAistas who want to brave the rain and pop by our Open House and eat ham and schmancy cheese and delicious pumpkin bread, email me and I'll send you our address!

My mother would kill me and then it would turn into COPS.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I always wondered how polygamists manage, money-wise.

I don't give a damn how many wives/husbands people want to have (I'm very much more opposed to huge batches of children, simply from a population standpoint) but holy crow, it looks exspensive! Especially if you're operating under what (my admittedly sketch) knowledge of Muslim (and I think Mormom) parity is, where each spouse has to be provided for equally.

I'd probably have an easier time being debt free if I got paid to be on tv, called my house a church and didn't pay taxes.

Do they call their house a church? (I don't watch the show; I know nothing.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They don't go to a regular church -- they have church services in their house, for the family and sometimes a few other families, with their father leading the service. I've read a few places (too lazy to google now) that they don't have to pay property taxes on that part of the house, since churches are tax-exempt.

I am hopefully not going to have a toothache this weekend. It's not heat sensitive at the moment, and cold doesn't make it appreciably better, so that's a good sign. Of course, I also realized that this morning was the first that I didn't take advil ( for the jaw pain) so it might have always been there, just masked by the drugs. It's not throbbing now, so we'll see.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

My understanding is they don't pay taxes on any of it.
