I just saw that Merlin Oleson passed away.
I totally read that the first two or three times as Merle Oberon, and was mostly boggled that I had gotten so horribly confused and not realized that she wasn't already dead. (As it turned out, I hadn't and she was. Sorry, Merle.)
(Also, sorry, Merlin.)

Hey, Stephanie, I've only done some minimal stuff, not the on the scale you're talking about, but my friend has done a bunch. I just friended her over on facebook, so if she grabs me back, I'd be happy to hook the two of you up. She does a great job with it.
I blame the Obama Administration.
I was going to say Dick Cheney keeps stealing other peoples life essences to maintain his current form.

It's Basement Penguin!
That penguin is cool. It also seems to be giving the camera the stinkeye. That can't end well.
I was gonna post this in Cable Drama, but I did not want to interrupt the awesome White Collar ho-yay luv-fest, so I am going to mention here that J and I are going to see the Paley panel on Men of a Certain Age tomorrow night. We love the show and the whole cast will be there along with others. I am VERY excited!
Speaking of melanistic animals. Do not mess with the black squirrel! [link]
Apparently, Darth Vader now realized he has an image problem. So he produced this nice 40 second PSA:
This Sith Lord Uses The Dark Side To Save The Planet, And Baby Animals
Darth Vader is doing a little image-control by sponsoring WWF's Earth Hour. He even taped a little video confession about how he's not really a bad guy. So turn to the "dark side" and turn off the lights. Get it?
Taxes are officially out of my hands. Whew. I really wish I'd found some charity receipts I'd creatively filed
somewhere
, but eh. Not going to worry about it.
Dude, I still need to do my taxes. ugh.
I am extremely nervous right now, just got a call from HR. They want to meet with me at 4, no info on why and the head of HR specifically wants to speak with me.
