Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Y'all are going to make me tackle these SQL lists aren't you? I do have a blog post I could write to procrastinate, but first I'd need to watch movie clips.

Ah, well. I guess that solves that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

SQL doesn't have to be too scary, Daisy. What do you need to edit within the query? We can probably tell you which bits to fiddle with.

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

I hope you are watching movie clips, Daisy.

Hope it helps, msbelle.

That sounds utterly frustrating, Perkins.

It is not raining right now. I should go out and do some of the things I have been avoiding doing in the rain. Yes. Getting right on that.

HA! I'm catching up on Grey's Anatomy and just came across the bet Miranda Bailey quote...

“I’m in the middle of a divorce. People call me The Nazi and it’s not because of my ice blue eyes. I spend 12 hours a day carving people up and I like it. I have a child and I have no room for casual anything. I’m angry all of the time and deeply confused because a lot of people in my life have let me down; recently one of them was me. It’s devastating but not completely, because it turns out I like sleeping cross-wise in the bed and not having to shave my legs.”

oh man. I love that character.

I don't think I'm messing with the query at all-or at least I think the part that tells it what to do, I don't think I'm messing with. I think the only part I'm messing with are the values I'm asking it to use.

My problem is that it means a lot of copy and paste with multiple values and if anything is off (extra comma, missing comma, line not pasted in) it's thrown off and someone has to fix it because I don't know enough to look at it and say, "Yeah, that looks right" or "Huh. Something seems to be missing there." like I can when I'm asked to muck around in the HTML. (Like, I don't know, I'd notice if I deleted a tag or something)

Jesus, Perkins. That sounds awful.

So I left work early today, getting a sub, to go lead a PD. (I never answer my phone while I'm teaching). I get on the road, about 10 minutes from the charter where I am doing the PD and I check my voicemail. The PD is canceled because it's rainy out. Seriously.

I love LA people.
