No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

So are Groupons like the new black?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes. I have to say, none of the ones I saw in NYC were that appealling, but the Boston ones have had a lot of (a) places in my neighborhood, and (b) places I would go anyway.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My workplace did not get the memo that it is supposed to be a "quiet week" of little to do but web surfing. They keep giving me massive quantities of work.

However! I did come in to find that someone had gifted me with a tin spaceship filled with bendy space monkeys in astronaut suits. So that was cheery.

Man. I've just been reading for five minutes and I already feel so grounded.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OK, I haven't done the WORK I was supposed to do today (um, expense reports? Printing and faxing things? Stuff I can't do once I'm on vacation because I won't have a fax machine or printer, whaaaa?) But I DID, thanks to you guys, just call up my old job's 401K plan (who I had never interacted with at all, before, at ALL, seriously) and asked for them to mail me the rollover stuff, so I can put all the money in the new job's thingie. Go me!

Xmas office gifts are a good thing.

So Cody and Isaac just swung by home on the way to the doctor's office. Isaac was crashed out asleep, with a gift from his preschool (a book) in his lap. Such a sweetheart when he's asleep.

Last night he had a horrible coughing jag, scared us a bit, hence the doctor's visit today. I need to find out if there's any chance it's allergies or asthma.

facepalm

I mean, it's kind of a cute idea. But it ... loses something in the execution.
