I call this "trainable."

Sadly, no. At least, not in my experience.

I cannot believe you guys don't know which one is Hall and which one is Oates! You are letting me down, here.

Is Polgara around? The kitten friend named one of his kittens Polgara after a David Eddings book and I said it was a Buffy demon. I seem to remember the demon being named after Polgara and now I can't remember.

Polgara named herself after the Eddings sorceress, and they named the Buffy demon after human Polgara, not fictional one.

That's what I thought! Only I seriously did not express it right. I never heard of the David Eddings Polgara, somehow I just thought that human Polgara made up the name....

One of the Philadelphia librarians just sent me this .

The list made me laugh, and I don't think she was trying to tell me something.

Stop demagnetizing her key card, Perkins. Geez!

What about the ticks? Can I still do the tick thing?

I want to be the sock-wearing cookie eater.

I always worry that I smell like road ramps!

I keep random toys on my counter for the scientists to play with while they're waiting for appointments.

I got a rubik's cube yesterday, and it's infuriating because they keep walking by, picking it up, and solving it in ten minutes and then I have to mix it all up again.

This isn't a normal first world problem, is it?
