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

I stopped at the health food store on the way home from the university. There was a poster about a raw food class, which looked interesting. The bottom of the poster said to register early, and to go to the website for more info. So I got home, looked at the website, and it says that you need to go to the store to register. They couldn't have put this information on the sign in the store?

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Isn't that what a cold is?

Steph, I meant that as in bacterial as opposed to viral. Colds are viruses. But, I don't think garlic can hurt you unless you have a very sensitive stomach.

What's everybody doing for their Onerous Task today?

I got up, took a shower and put some things away. I'm done.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Given that I had to drastically reduce my day's plans, I have selected nail polish instead of taxes. I think that's reasonable, right?

Yeah. I fail at Onerous Task Day. Can I have tomorrow as a make-up task day?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

They couldn't have put this information on the sign in the store?

Perhaps they are encouraging exercise too.

Just was talking to my mom about a local figure and said, "When Joe Schmo (except I used his real name) knows it's a skeevy thing, it's a really skeevy thing. ... Maybe don't repeat I said that?" I have total class.

Okay, sorting clean clothes into "I need to pack you" and "I need to put you away" and mourning I don't have a robot for this. Socks are going to be a significant part of my luggage.

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

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

Awww, my husband gets my jokes! And so does Suzi!

I have exactly two onerous tasks. One isn't really all that onerous, just mildly irritating, but the other is looking to be impossible. Is anyone more familiar than me with Blogspot? Is there some very obvious "Contact Me" tab or button that I'm missing if you want to contact a particular Blogspot blogger, or is the only way to do it just to comment on a blog entry?

I'm trying to figure out how to get hold of two different people about bloggish matters that are specific to them but only tangential to the actual blog entries in question, and I don't want to just post a query letter in a comment box; it just seems tacky. But no matter where I look, Blogspot is thwarting me. Am I being a complete idiot and not seeing what I'm looking for, or am I being a complete idiot for continuing to look for what's in fact not there?

not your mom's socks.

Sox, I thought the 1-2-3 list was the programmer writing back (and quoting South Park) saying, "Uh, how exactly are you going to make money doing this?"

hah, likely. darn you, super-speedreading-superpower

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

JZ, I am glad your new workplace is so awesome. I hope it continues to be so.

My onerous task for today was an iron infusion. 4 down and (hopefully) only 1 more to go!
