I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Timelies, all. I like whimsical shoes, but never buy them for myself. It's a hangup from the days when I could afford one pair of pumps, one pair of flats, one pair of sandals, and one pair of sneakers in a given year (or, for a while there, over 2-3 years). So I bought plain black shoes for work, as they'd go with most of my wardrobe. Now that I'm not quite as constrained I should probably add a pair of red fluvog mary janes or suchlike to my wardrobe.

Wow, I am feeling sluggish and blegh this morning. I hope it's just Monday and not the onset of something or other. Maybe I'm just coming down from the high of a really nice weekend.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

bonny, he seems a bit lethargic and floppy. But he did have a very stimulating weekend, so I'm not sure what's worn out and what's lethargy. He walked fine last night and his poop was mostly solid with a bit of diarrhea at the end .

My roommate who used to work at a vet looked at him last night and thinks he's just uncomfortable from overindulgence. Next time we go visit, I will be asking my aunt to put away all the chew treats.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I only wear black shoes. I occasionally buy other colors, but really, I only wear the black ones. Ah well.

I am playing hooky! OK, actually I'm taking a sick day because I'm actually sick and it's negative degrees out, and I have an unrelated doctor's appointment this afternoon, but still. Not going to work. Man, I feel like shit, and am not sure I can handle going to the store for drugs.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have this problem where I have no black shoes that I like. I really only have a pair of red shoes, so I just wear them with everything.

I really need more shoes.

I own both fluevog and remix shoes from my previous life. Unlike Holli, I love a whimsical heel. I will also say that Fluevog shoes are much better constructed than remix shoes and, at least for me, they last longer.

Man, gmail is being unreasonable: I just opened it up to send an email to a friend and it's telling me that my log on has expired and I need to login again - but it's been under a minute.

I have 2, possibly 3 copies of 10 years worth of mail now. Except only my archived copy of my original inbox. FUN. But far better than anticipated.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Jack LaLanne died, at age 96. One of the first comments on the NY Times article is speculating whether diet and exercise really make any difference, since he did so many of the things the way you're supposed to do them and "fell so short of living say, past 110 or so."
