KCD and I had that click, talked most of that first night away. Ah well. The date I had a couple of weeks ago was click-less for both of us, though we did have a pleasant meal and conversation.
Buffy: Dancing with you is way better than trying to hook up with some good-looking guy. Xander: I think I liked it more when you were kicking me in my puffy groin.

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

You know, just because it didn't work out absolutely forever, I hope it wasn't all bad. And you have two great kids because of it too.
DxH and I clicked. We can still talk for ages. Can't be married, but it doesn't mean I wish we hadn't clicked at all.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Here's this thing about this NPR version of "Telephone": [link] Is that an NPR producer, or a tall Jonathan Rhys Meyers?

True, Cass, true. I adore my kids and we had a few good years.
Kids and computers - CJ ended up with my old laptop. He is supposed to keep it in the living room or in the guest room/office. I needed to use it today to print something and it wasn't in the usual place. After some searching, I found it under his bed. wtf? I did the work I needed to do and I have tucked it away in my room. He just got home from school and I'm just waiting for him to say something about it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
OMG, that's Ari Shapiro? Damn.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Clicks aren't fair, but I don't know how to work without them. It's that shit that gets me told I'm too picky, but just because I don't hate a guy doesn't mean I should date a guy--and it's only guys that tell me I'm being too picky about it.
And, none of these guys date all their female friends, so they're being a bit two-faced about it.
Can't view youtube from work, but bon, you just made me check up on JRM's height. Damn, but I thought he was at least 6'. Huh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Stock Selloff May Have Been Triggered by a Trader Error
In one of the most dizzying half-hours in stock market history, the Dow plunged nearly 1,000 points before paring those losses—all apparently due to a trader error.
According to multiple sources, a trader entered a "b" for billion instead of an "m" for million in a trade possibly involving Procter & Gamble, a component in the Dow.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ha! I've been proclaiming for years--decades even--that there's Neanderthal in dem der genes. Nice to have it scientifically confirmed.

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 am very tired (haven't been sleeping well), and was supposed to work late to make up for going to the dentist this morning. But my boss is letting me leave at 5:00 so I can take a nap before my date.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Heading up to NYC tomorrow after work. (taking the train) Finally going to see my niece, even if it will be at a Mother's Day brunch with a lot of other people.
