A friend of mine called me the other day and said, "I have good news, but not really for two more months." I said HOORAY! She was like, "You know what it is???" Um, yeah.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I would like to point out that most mentally ill people, schizophrenics included, don't hurt or kill people.
I think this is important to remember.

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

So, the important person I might have sent the wrong version of the email to? Sent me the message to his assistant telling her to write me back. So now I don't feel bad, if it's going around all over!

I wrote a post on my blog about snow days. I am trying to write more; i was doing pretty good until I got this job, but it's kicked my ass time-wise. I'm going to try to write at least once a week; it's good for me.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Also, have folks heard that Palin accused the press of "blood libel"?
And she'd been doing such a good job of keeping her mouth shut lately....

What is "blood libel"?
It comes from when people would accuse Jews of killing Christian babies for their blood.
eta: Wikipedia: [link]
eta²: Also, Gabrielle Giffords is Jewish.
We are deeply disturbed by Fox News commentator Sarah Palin’s decision to characterize as a “blood libel” the criticism directed at her following the terrorist attack in Tucson. The term “blood libel” is not a synonym for “false accusation.” It refers to a specific falsehood perpetuated by Christians about Jews for centuries, a falsehood that motivated a good deal of anti-Jewish violence and discrimination. Unless someone has been accusing Ms. Palin of killing Christian babies and making matzoh from their blood, her use of the term is totally out-of-line.
