Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In other other news, I feel like my one geeky coworker must be fannish, so I'm trying to throw stuff out there and see what she picks up. So far, not Leverage. (The word comes up a lot at work...)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Change of plans, but for a good reason. Someone wants to see the place at 4, so I am taking an hour to be in the city, then heading back to clean.

“Not dead yet!”

That's such a gorgeous building, Barb. Seriously one of the prettiest buildings in downtown LA.

Oh, it definitely is, Cass-- I've stayed at hotels near there and thought it would be nice to attend a function there someday.

One of my other favorites that I've stayed at is the Beverly Hilton-- it's got such a 60s kitsch vibe to it. Next goal is to stay at The Beverly Hills Hotel. Just to hang at the Pink Palace.

Oh, bonny - I just found the article. Phooey on that writer who went looking for trouble.

My daughter just proved once again that she can eat her weight in mac-n-cheese, and that no matter how fine I chop the spinach, she can pick it off the noodles.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I am at Coney Island with the fam. It it gorgeous. I love being able to wake up in the morning and think "I'd like to go to the beach" and just GO.

Ftr, sephora still does have itty bitty bottles of polish. I know have red red and deep sparkle pink, plus Mermaid to Order OPI.

Right? That seems exactly the point. Pot needed stirring, I guess.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Jonathan_Frakes is often amusing on Twitter. Sean_M_Maher doesn't post much. JewelStaite talks about food a lot. eddieizzard does a lot of PSAs. Mark_Sheppard mostly posts about where he's about to be showing up. MarsRovers aren't real chatty, but I guess they're busy. Rachel Maddow (maddow) is usually interesting and/or funny. WriteRCastle is pretty funny for a fictional being. James Lileks (Lileks) makes me laugh. howardtayler is funny (author of webcomic Schlock Mercenary).

ModernMatriarch is pretty awesome. She's not famous -- yet.

You wouldn't think BarackObama could keep it to 140 characters, but he does.

He has a pro tweeting for him. The job ad was floating around a while ago.

I like twitter, but it's a useful for keeping in touch and connecting with more locals. At least the way I use it.

It's sometime depressing to realize my insights don't go beyond more that 140 characgters.

I am going on record saying Juliet Landau has not yet mastered the art of an interesting tweet.
