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

I just finished watching my first official Dr. Who episode.

Which one? Which season?

For some reason I'm loving the current season way more than season 1, which are the only two seasons I've seen (and I've only seen a few season 1 episodes).

Because books.

The first episode with the ninth doctor, tommy, "Rose." I liked it!

Ugh. What's the verdict, Matt? Working the weekend, or not?

Working the weekend or finding a different line of work, I think. (I was already planning on working the afternoons to handle what I had to do before these changes came down - now it's gone from rough-but-I-can-handle-it to praying I can redo 4 days' worth of work in crisis mode tomorrow and still finish all the pages I haven't worked on yet by Wednesday morning.)

If I'd just gotten this feedback a week and a half ago when I was working in a vacuum, the changes could have been folded in and all would have been well. But of course they waited until 3 business days before deadline to give me major changes to the basic layout that should have been decided on by last Friday or Monday at the latest.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I stayed up late talking with other grown-ups. Boys played nicely together, did not bother us, and went to bed when asked. There was dinner in a backyard and roasting marshmallows. The plan for tomorrow morning is to hit a few yard sales before heading out to the farm. I am loving this weekend. Viva suburbia.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Matilda says: I like vampires.

David: But vampires are bad.

Matilda: No, I only like good vampires. (pondering) I want a unicorn vampire.

Is there a difference between a unicorn vampire and a vampire unicorn?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

According to CJ, a vampire unicorn is a unicorn who has been vamped, while a unicorn vampire is only a wanna be.

So, vampire unicorn is infinitely cooler?

I mean, does cooler even apply in this schema?

WAIT. A unicorn vampire is a vampire that has been turned into a sweet nonthreatening plush pet. Like Angel. or Spike. Or Edward Cullen. And yes, I just drew a comparison between Angel and Edward. I went there. Get over it.

And I love you for it.

THAT IS THE POINT. Everybody, time to watch 30 Days of Night!

Skipping like mad. Made my mom wicked strong mojitos after a lovely day spent mostly up in the mountains. Retirement party for one of my dad's hires ( found out his is the 14th from the office mgr. Grr. DAD! I'll be missing but my brother hopes to come down as a surprise!)

Beat the crap out of the nephew at marathon sessions of UNO. Weirded people out that I knew the site before it existed ( kinda flattering to point out that you are old enough to remember a now 25 year op project and gee, that makes you almost 35 and that is surprising.) Had animal adventures, got way up high in the sky.

May even go swimming early tomorrow if the mojitos and current photo downloads don't do me in.

God, I LOVE the high desert. It smells so fucking good here. You can see for forever. My skin loves it.

Why is it I can't find it as home? Baltimore is home. It stinks when it rains. There are no mountains. It's humid. But I love it. I've always had my 'hood. I can't imagine living here, as much as I love it and it pulls at me. I look around and know I'm in love and yet..it's not where I am to be. My home in the east is.

I don't get it.
