Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

There seems to be a lot of "Oh, it's that guy" on The Good Wife tonight, only I am not actually able to place those guys. All the lawyers whose names I'm not catching look really familiar.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I've become fond of vodka on those rare occasions when Dallas middles my bed.

As I leave for work I always look at the bottle of cheap vodka next to the bare mattress (soaked in cheap vodka) and the bed linens angrily yanked off the bed and wonder what the cops would think if I ended up murdered that day.

Hopefully one of you would help clear that up.

Dallas is a rescue. I found her all four pounds of her in a busy parking lot covered with ant bites. She was far enough from habitation that I assume she was dumped. She'll be 16 in April.

She ran over for a scritch when I called her upon reading the stories. She left in a huff when I did not give her any of my dinner.

What's this about me not being a hugger? I hug. Just on my terms.

Oh my! Noah got the most amazing set of tree blocks from my former student who occasionally babysits for him. Glamcookie, when you are ready for a sitter, I have one for you. I mean, yeah, sure have the kids first and all. But when you are ready!

If I ever need a handle for an LJ sock-puppet, I think I'll go with that.

I kind of like hugging people I know and like, but I'm total crap at reading people, so I don't really know when they want to be hugged. So I generally let them initiate it or not.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wallybee and I rewatched the West Wing tonight, the last ep of Season 1. It includes the following exchange:

Leo: What are you doing?!
Josh: I... thought you wanted to hug me.
Leo: Boy, did you read that wrong.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Theo's interview went well -- it turns out Tom W.'s direct report is the manager (!!!), so I'm hopeful of a home court advantage, but there are still a number of other interviews scheduled, et cetera... so I'll hold onto some of that job-ma for now!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Has anyone else seen the odd CBS Cares TV spot where the dude advocates doing "something special for your woman this holiday season" and then says, "Schedule her pap smear."

Hon, if you're reading this? PLEASE DO NOT SCHEDULE MY PAP SMEAR. KTHXBYE.

I hug my co-workers occasionally when we're out in social situations, and I hug ex-coworkers when they stop by to visit. But current co-workers while in the office = NO.

That is too cool!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fingers crossed!!

I love Josh and Leo.

Our wings are not tired.

Yay! I'll keep sending the job~ma.

I'm a huggy hugger. I've hugged employees, vendors, and customers. I'm pretty sure I know which ones are good with that. There are a number of kiss on the cheek and kiss on both cheeks types among my business acquaintances too. I just follow their lead as I am ok with all of it.

I would also be more than twice as old as the previous coop/intern.
