I am tired and grumpy and stressed out and my husband is IMing me about doing pushups. This morning he proposed that we have sex every time he does 100 pushups. He can do about 10 at a time, now. He just did 10 in his office. Maybe I'll end up with a very buff husband who gets laid every night.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

Another example of something, um, interesting in Washington. The state, not the city, alas. (scroll down - I'm thinking of the sculptures)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ah. The sex barter. I know of this. I promise Joe 1 favor for every dust catcher/old toy/piece of crap that he gets rid of.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh.
I can't decide if I should try to get a massage or a haircut this weekend. Granted, I might not be able to get an appointment for either, but I can't decide who to call first.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
'Top kill' plugs gulf oil leak, official says
Engineers have stopped the flow of oil and gas into the Gulf of Mexico from a gushing BP well, the federal government's top oil-spill commander, U.S. Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, said Thursday morning.

You know, I never thought if this as a method to get The Boy to get rid of the packratty stuff throughout the house.
Hmmm.

My DH and I just got new life insurance quotes and he is eight times more expensive to insure than I am. And this is good, because our current policies have him at about 10 times more expensive than me.
While the hang gliding has something to do with it, both his parents dying young sure doesn't help.
People, consider this when you are selecting someone with whom to raise children!

Now tagless for your comfort.
Neil Gaiman's tweet about Top Kill was awesome. He was disappointed that the Top Kill plan left the entire executive strata of BP untouched.

I need to go to Target but don't feel like spending $100.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

IIRC, the car was a failure in the marketplace. Apparently the styling was too weird.
