Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am envious of shrift and Dana. (though DragonCon is waaay too big for my comfort level.)

I heard a rumor that there were 75,000 people there this year.

And I'm off to the optometrist.

Now tagless for your comfort.

DH had a boss once who, if you drew a single state on a piece of paper could fill in the entire United States from that one state. I'll have to show him the Franken video. He'll be impressed.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

see Sen. Al Franken draw a map of the US freehand!

That's fun to watch, and impressive. I'd never be able to keep the proportions right.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Yeah, I'm not concerned for myself - or for Jilli, we're healthy. It's just the REACTION is startling. I have friends who have immediately gone to the hospital upon hearing about this.

Yeah, watching the ZOMG SWINE FLU! DEEEAAAATH! reaction through LJ/FB/Twitter has been kind of amusing. In a "you people need to calm down" sort of way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

IcompletelyON, see Sen. Al Franken draw a map of the US freehand! (Love the music and speeded-up tempo.)

I remember him doing it on SNL during some election -- could it be 88? Impressive!

I have made the new A/V receiver my bitch. We have audio and video. Now if I can get the tuner to work, we'll be golden.

Take that, Geek Squad!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

draw a map of the US freehand!

I'm not sure if it says more about me or the parties I attend that this sounds like a pretty neat party trick.

Man, my optometrist is cute.

I hadn't realized that Oprah was filming on the street between the Wrigley Building and Tribune Tower. I had to go in the back and beg security to let me through, and I passed by some green rooms on my way to Pearle Vision.
