All y'all christians are so cute, with the fear of Zeus. Just think of it as NSFW midrashim.

HA!

I thought there was work going on to keep his stuff alive and online. I'm not sure what came of it.

Me either. I should check when I get home.

So my beloved Aunt the missionary has been visiting me this weekend, which has been very, very nice.

This morning, we spent a couple of hours discussing the Bible (she is pretty open-minded and very well read, so can answer my endless questions about science/Bible with patience). It was a great talk. I had to laugh because after two hours of talking about Christianity and Islam and floods and dinosaurs, she ends with "and now you need to go do your work and I can keep reading the book I got off your shelf!"

"Which book?"

"The Godfather Companion--it's great!!!"

And then she made me banana nut bread.

And now she's out there watching the dvds of "Waiting for God" that I got for my birthday.

It falls under the heading of "stuff bookmarked at home that I can never remember how to find on the fly and more's the pity."

This is why you should use delicious!

Relatedly, I don't know what happened to slashdom after Minotaur's death.

I think that it was changed to slashdom.net. I know that smallville.slashdom.net still works. Not that anyone is posting there, but I haven't really checked/watched Smallville in a few years.

I am exhausted, and I still have a few more hours stuck in ATL,

Ack! I could have come down and visited, but I was at the vet. (The vet says to give Mr Peabody 165 mg of aspirin 3x a day, put warm compresses on his leg and come back if he's not better by Thursday. I haven't quite figured out the logistics of warm compresses.}

I think I had a couple fics on slashdom. If I weren't on my work computer, I'd go check.

Not that that's stopped me from much in the past. Man, I hope when I turn this laptop back in, the IT techs just wipe it without looking at the logs.

Ginger, I hope Mr. Peabody doeesn't have anything serious.

No worries, Ginger. I didn't realize until early this morning that our layover in Atlanta was going to be this long, or I would have mentioned it earlier.

As it is, we're waiting to board the flight to Venice, so when I talk to y'all again, it will be tomorrow (Monday has been about 3 hours long for me -- skipping right over it).

The vet thinks the incredible bouncing dog probably landed wrong on that leg. There's a little swelling around the joint, but she said that if he had broken something, there would be more swelling.

I also raised my concerns about how he doesn't seem to be taking the heat well, and she said with the early hot weather and humidity, she's seeing a lot of heat problems, so it's probably not specifically something wrong with him.
