My onerous tasks today include doing my presentation and paper for class this weekend, as well as unpacking, washing, and then displaying the crystal that I inherited from my great-grandma via my aunt (they're still in the boxes my dad brought up three weeks ago).

Hookers and blow, y'all! (That's the new "Timelies!", right?)

We had crazy thunderstorms and a tornado warning here last night. It seemed like it was coming fairly close to us, from what we could tell from the radio (we don't have TV reception and the Internet wasn't cooperating), so we tried to hunker down and prepare. This involved shoving the cats in their crates and huddling near the cubby that holds our washing machine (the innermost, best-protected space in our apartment) and draping a comforter over ourselves. The cats were FRANTIC and kept up a rousing chorus of "We're being tortured!" which meant that we couldn't hear the radio reports, so we had no idea how close the storm was or whether it had passed.

In conclusion: I do not like tornadoes, but fortunately we did not get hit by one.

I'm an antidisincentivizationist.

Wonder if I can fit that on a t-shirt?

Animal lipstick art.

Yeah, our buddies (who are getting ready to move back from Nashville to NM, no work) were freaking out on facebook about the tornado warning. We don't get those in the desert.

The scientist who discovered that stomach ulcers were caused by bacteria tested his theory on himself. He went on to win the Nobel Prize.

I didn't read the actual Charlie Sheen rant yesterday. So I think this has more stuff, but am not sure:

“I’m not Thomas Jefferson. He was a pussy.”

Huh?

“I have a disease? Bullshit. I cured it with my brain.”

Huh?

10 scientists who experimented on themselves. Good god, that's disgusting. But better them than other people, I guess.

just sent that to one of my favorite scientists at the University. He and I would lecture on the responsible conduct of research and he would tell students about how experimented on himself and show the scars.

Onerousity: make cookies and walk the dog. Also laundry. And cutting out coupons. And a shower (which is not onerous, but now I'm unloading my to-do list on alla y'all).

I called the doctor this morning to make an appointment to check out something I'd been putting off until it got really aggravating yesterday. So that's one onerous task down.

Okay, cookies. All I want to do is lie on the couch and read. WHY didn't I put that on my to-do list?

LOVE.
