Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Is it here Nora was talking about moving to NO? If so, Nora, feel free to ping my cousins. Kara basically did just what you're thinking about, though we have family and friends there. I'm sure it would take you no time and Kara would be happy to invite you to stuff and make intros. smonster can attest to their awesomeness.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Lesson learned from "Who Is Clark Rockefeller?": People are easily duped, and much less likely to google than I would have thought.

Finally hung the cling film in the basement windows. Now thinking about doing the back basement windows too. It looks really nice.

hip deep in pie

I closed on my house three years ago today. I am finally finishing painting the trim in my bedroom.

Congratulations!

(I'm approaching one year and I still have packed stuff in the basement, boxes in the spare bedroom and very little on the walls. I don't expect the trim will get done in 3 years.)

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

Random question: If you were a three-headed dog, would every physical sensation you had be felt by all three heads? Like, if someone stepped on your tail, all three heads would feel it, right? (Except perhaps sensations from each head itself - if one head is eating, I wouldn't think the other heads would taste it. Or would they?)

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Is it here Nora was talking about moving to NO? If so, Nora, feel free to ping my cousins.

It was here that I was musing about NO. Daisy, thanks so much for the offer, and I will definitely get in touch when/if we get moving on this prospect! Because smonster has indeed already testified about the awesomeness of K & K.

Tom actually applied for a job down there today!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

James Randi—who is 81—just came out.

I just read his statement, and it's pretty awesome. Good for him.

So Devi managed to get into the crawlspace and Loki went under the stairs and refused to come out. I had to go in after him. Devi, there was a lot of cajoling and her meeing back at me until I could get her close enough to grab her. At least with Loki, if I can't physically grab him, he'll eventually come to me if I get a toy or string.
