You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

In case anyone had forgotten: I'm the lyrical Jesse James.

That would certainly give any state trooper pause.

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

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Yeah, I know, ita. Me too.(Even though I'm not as straight as I thought I was.) I do feel you on that, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

homemade detergent

How do you make it? I'd be interested in maybe trying it. (I have a vague memory now of some talk of this on b.org a while back. Or maybe soap nuts? I can't recall.)

Maybe one of these weekends we could go?

Ooh, we should. I may be going out of town next weekend, but the one after that perhaps? And while I'm making social plans, I still like the idea of having some folks over for cocktails, so I need to try to make that happen.

If they don't rerun scrappys show, supposedly I have it on my TiVo. Yay for being able to schedule from my phone! Though I won't quite believe it til I see it, when I get home Thursday.

I did nothing for Megan but empathize--I have been felled many a time by nausea with my migrianes, including one 4th of July weekend (I think?) when Smonster and Amyth were visiting.

Randomly: got my nails done, and my toes are a fine color but I loove the color on my fingers. OPI, something about tapas? It's a brownish red.

The status is NOT quo.

I forgot to set the TiVo! Grr. Argh.

I was a bit distracted this morning because of my new puppy! For those not in Bitches, I thought I'd x-post cute puppy pics here.

So I brought home the world's cutest and best-bahaved puppy EVER today.

Kaylee is polite, doesn't jump, listens, and really just wants to snuggle. I can't even tell you what a good little girl she is...so I will show you! You can click on the links below to watch a few short videos that my friend CJ, who went with me, took on her little Flip camera. As I type this, Kaylee is asleep next to the couch with her head on my foot.

I am in love.

These are all short video clips, between 20 seconds and a minute.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Scrappy's show was great -- can't wait to see the place in person! Now I'm watching HGTV all night, obsessing about home renovation.

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

but the one after that perhaps?

Urth Caffe on Melrose, baby. Where we're the most normal of the bunch, and they often entertain.

Also, thumbs up on the cocktails. Give me an excuse to flex some of my clothes, it will (or by more....oops).

meara, Can you tapas this?

(Okay, I want to change the capitalization in the above sentence so so so badly but it is accurate. Just annoying.)

Kaylee is polite, doesn't jump, listens, and really just wants to snuggle.

Puppycat is much the same. Except she jumps. And doesn't listen. Isn't real polite either. But she's big on the snuggles.

I skimped* so much that I haven't had a chance to say that Kaylee is adorable.

meara, Can you tapas this?

No, I cannot tapas that. But yes, it was the color, from googling that looks and sounds about right (though the pictures I saw don't convey the color well at all, the description sounds right)
