I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Thank you all very much!

It's been a very nice birthday so far--I had a nice dinner out last night.

I'm actually at work at the moment, but that's to do a time-consuming but easy project that I need to be on-premises to do. It's due end of day tomorrow, but the weather is supposed to be fugly (freezing rain), so I don't want to have to worry about being able to make it in. Plus, comp time and I can sit in my cube and read/play on the internet while things process.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Anne!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Happy Birthday, Anne!

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

I'm trying to work on my taxes. TurboTax is telling me that the state of Pennsylvania owes me a bit over $20,000. I have a feeling this is wrong. But I went through the numbers a bunch of times, and it looks like I entered everything right. Except for box 14. TurboTax wants me to enter the information from box 14 of my W2, and I don't seem to have a box 14.

edit: I figured out the problem. Now it says that I owe $2.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Happy birthday, Anne!

I hope you had a ggod time, BT. I got kinda zonked out there towards the middle, and then woke up for the trophy ceremony.

I did have a good time, though the tennis itself wasn't the best quality. (I don't much like Djokovic, he plays pretty dull power tennis; I do like Murray, but he's too prone to unforced errors.) Nonetheless, there were some fantastic moments, and it was very enjoyable being part of the occasion.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy birthday, Anne!

I had to skip several hundred posts, so my apologies if I missed something crucial in there.

We watched Wolverine: Origins last night. I was anticipating a bad movie, but I really had no idea how bad it was? How did I not know this? (Not that it was unwatchable--I mean I can forgive a lot for a glimpse of nekkid Hugh Jackman.)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

But, but, Gambit!

Yeah, I know, it's a bad movie.
