We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm watching a local year-end thing, and a big Boston mobster I remember from the 80s died this year. I would never have come up with his name, but that brought back my childhood in a really weird way.

hip deep in pie

I'm glad you are getting to go to the funeral.

Well Xmas is over except for the boxing day sales, the returns, and getting back home. My brother and his family got me a handheld video camera, and I can't decide if I would use it or not. [link]

I also got dishes, a scarf from my nephew, and a rotary cutter and mat. Nice haul.

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

If anyone asks you to explain "om nom nom," just send them this: Know Your Meme: Om Nom Nom

Important educational video that documents the rise of Om Nom Nom and its meaning in culture. Includes early footage of Cookie Monster in a training video for IBM.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

ita, I'm glad things worked out so you're going to be there.

Now I can't stop watching their videos! Hilarious.

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

That website is full of things they say are memes that I've never heard of. I guess, though, if I already knew my memes, I wouldn't need the site.

I'm glad things worked out so you're going to be there.

Thanks. It's going to be a crazy weekend, but an important one.

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

Back home after two of our three Xmas films. Enjoyed how Avatar looked, even if it was "Dances with Aliens." Sherlock Holmes I can't comment on, as I was blinded by RDJ and Jude law lust. We are home to walk and cuddle the dogs, before going to see Nine, last film of the day.

Oh, and the DH gave me a gorgeous diamond (!) tennis bracelet. Thank god we can't afford big diamonds, as the teeny tiny ones in this bracelet are perfect and and sparkly without being annoying.

I just wrote something similar in my LJ.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

And so far, no tears.

We were doing okay on this front until we dropped Emmett off with his Mom and Matilda went into hysterics crying his name until he came back and held her. It was like a scene from a Lifetime movie where the kids are taken away from the mom and they're so anguished. It was a little heartwrenching even though she's going to see him again as soon as Sunday.

Otherwise though we had a very fun time with JZ's extended family of cousins. Emmett's been going for five years now for various Easters and Xmas and baptisms and whatnot so he's comfortable with the other kids. We saw JZ's cousin Nicole (the proto-Goth Michael Jackson imitator). She's now performing at anime conventions.

Can you guess her character? Harley Quinn.

She showed us a picture - perfect costume and she's got the voice down too. Too funny. Oh well, a step up from MJ.

Apparently she did street improv in Hollywood as Harley and made $400.
