My (predictable) reaction: Whoo, the director of Near Dark won an Oscar! Yeah!
Me too! In fact, I had to edit my thing for work today to include her Oscar in the Near Dark section! Yay her!
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I am not really looking forward to this week, although there are at least two good things about it:
1) I may have the Project That Never Ends off my plate by Friday.
2) When this week ends, I head to NEW ORLEANS! With Nora! And my sister! And many other awesome people!

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

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Salon's review of last night's Oscars:
As crazy as it sounds, this year's Oscar festivities were dynamic, funny and moved along at a good clip. Hosts Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were hilarious, there were great jokes by everyone from Tina Fey to Ben Stiller, and the speeches were less long and dull than they've been in years. For once, no one rambled on forever and agents were rarely thanked. Not only that, but the usual endless tributes that serve no purpose whatsoever were gone, cut down to a great John Hughes segment and an entertaining horror-movie montage.
That does sound crazy. Perhaps she watched a different show.

It's a shame that crack has taken such a toll on entertainment writers.

The radio host this morning was also praising Baldwin and Martin, but a lot of callers begged to differ.
I really really really want to go home sick, but one of my coworkers has already sent out an email that she's also sick but working from home. I'm hoping that maybe I can at least go home early, because I've got an incipient cough, a dizzy head, clammy skin, and I'm exhausted because every time I rolled over last night, I woke up because I couldn't breathe until I repositioned myself.

So, would a lava lamp work on Jupiter? Apparently it would.
Would a Lava Lamp work on Jupiter with its higher gravity? To find out, I built a large centrifuge out of Meccano and spun up a lava lamp.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Salon's review of last night's Oscars:
So fundamentally crack-addled.
I had more dreams last night about work. They weren't really anxiety dreams. More what-to-do-next dreams. I feel I'm giving up too much subconscious space, but it's not exactly like I have anything else to fill it all with.
