Happy Birthday, Ellie and Dana!!!
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Today, I am wearing leopard print ballet flats. So there.

Blindfolded, all eggs taste the same.
FWIW, I've been known to put on my glasses when I can't hear something...

If I wear a tight knit turtleneck, I might as well wear a nametag that says "Hello! I have boobs". In fact, it is one of Trinny and Susannah's original WNTW rules for hourglass figures. Not that that means this lawyer looked inappropriate, but the last time I tried one on (when I didn't generally wear tight clothing) and stepped out of the dressing room, the look on The Boys face is something I will never forget. If gay men have that reaction? It is not something I would wear to the office.

I don't know if you're kidding, but I actually do this. I have no idea if it helps, but it feels like it does.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I hope the vet finds you the solid form soon.
We're supposed to call on Monday. We're going to call today because, hey, you never know.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
SpaceX is going to try to launch their Falcon 9 rocket today. The count is currently holding at T-15 minutes.

The Falcon 9 is 9 times bigger than their other rocket. You know what that means? Nine times the explosion! (First flights of rockets generally have only a fair probability of success.)

I'm definitely better at understanding speech if I can see the person talking -- I'm really horrible at understanding things over the phone, or museum exhibits that have all the information on an audio track -- but that doesn't seem to carry over to other types of sounds.

Oh, when Obama decided that NASA should rely on rockets developed by private companies to get astronauts into orbit, the Falcon 9 is often cited as one possibility, as they're planning on building a manned space capsule for it.
