Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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

Lightning Cat vs. The Iceland Volcano

Ben Grelle made this awesome image of Lightning Cat doing battle with the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano in Iceland.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I didn't know roasting beets was so easy. Awesome!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I saw Wopat in the Annie Get Your Gun revival with the AWESOME Bernadette Peters several years ago. He was good. Not "good for a TV dude" good, but actually good.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, but I have an easier time envisioning him in Annie Get Your Gun than in Sweeney. Perhaps it's just a failure of my imagination. Or the fact that he's forever going to be one of the Duke boys.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

1. Roasting beets is pretty easy.

2. Trader Joe's sells roasted and peeled beets in a vacuum packed thingie.

Mmmm, beets.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They taste like dirt!

You sure know how to sell stuff.

I should do a TJ's run after work today. Maybe, just maybe.

Because books.

Beets are the one vegetable that really turn my stomach. I think because I only ever had nasty canned ones as a kid. Thanks, Mom.

Maybe I should try fresh ones. Or not.

Nasty canned beets do not taste like nommy fresh ones.

Man, I need to go to TJs soon, and look for more healthy lunch things.

“Not dead yet!”

It's hard to choose between Virgin and Jet Blue, because both are awesome.

Well, for this trip, since I'm going coast-to-coast, I went with the non-stop. Leaves 90 minutes later in the morning and gets me into NYC three hours earlier.

I'll save VA for a trip to SF or LA. Which I should really plan, I'm thinking.
