I work with a lot of librarians, and know that I would not actually be suited for a librarian, but there's a part of me that's still always like "Dude! A whole profession of Looking Stuff Up On The Internet!" even though I know it's not reality. It's kind of the modern version of the part of kid!me that was like "Dude! A whole profession of messing around with books!"
Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Hee. There's a flight leaving for New Orleans from our gate right now. I was tempted to just try and get on that plane and spend the night at my parents' house.
My mom was about to be stuck in San Francisco and was going to fly to Portland to crash here instead of sleeping at the airport. Sadly they got her home instead. Well, happy for her. Sad cause I got no mom.

At one point flying to my hometown, I was layovered in ABQ and it kept getting extended. I actually would have gotten there sooner had I rented a car and drove. Unfortunately, the delays were incremental, so I kept having hope I wouldn't have to drive the dead zone (I swear, the section between T or C and Socorro on I-25 is like area 51. For some reason, exceedingly sleepy and speed making and you don't remember any of it. Even though it is kinda scenic!)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Randomish question based on a screenshot I saw of the Lost finale: Is Josh Holloway bowlegged? The first five or six screens of image search were inconclusive.
I have a short list of bowlegged hotties I'd love to add him too.
Hey, that guy from that one Supernatural episode is on Saving Grace. While vague, this is also amusing.

Basically, I have to get to either Denver or Salt Lake in time to catch a flight out tonight.
People talk smack about O'Hare, but there's some advantages to being in a big hub city.
Dude is completely gender neutral AFAIC.
Flea is the awesomest.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Flea is the awesomest.
I just saw her and I can vouch for this. Also, her children are cute and lively and her husband makes good pie.

I'm taking my Intro to Reference class right now, and, well, it pretty much is reality for this class! We each have our own computer at our desk (first time I've ever had that), and we spend the class (so far--we've only met twice at this point in the semester) doing online searches. We learned all about Boolean search terms last week.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Also, her children are cute and lively and her husband makes good pie.
I'm confused. Why were you turning her husband into a pie?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I think I may have to stop all internet usage from 9-1. horrible.
I use StayFocusd for chrome to limit internet usage. Just in case you need help with that mast.
