I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Damn, we are underachievers. We are statistically more likely to marry each other than to kill each other.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Allyson, if you have a Nook, I can lend you all the Hunger Games books. E-me at my profile addy.

Actually, anyone who has a Nook and wants to be Noon friends (or whatever it is), feel free. I have a ton of books, and about 40 that are LendMe ones.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I mean, mostly, right??

Yo, Google has not bought Yahoo. I'm pretty sure I would remember that happening.

OK, that's what I thought, but I was pretty sure "NUH-UH" would not be an effective argument.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I mostly dislike all this cross company integration

You can still log on the old way. Why is it a bad thing if you don't lose anything? I'm annoyed that Gawker is shifting to FB/Twitter/Google because they're taking something away, but I don't mind if a site removes the requirement to set up another online ID, as long as they don't remove the option.

However, given how crap Gawker is about their own security, perhaps there are numerous bottom line reasons to outsource it. It just doesn't mesh with my way of working online.

All of the sudden, Amazon is different.

Aaaaaaaaaaa! No! Why would they do that?!? (I just looked at it. Now I have to cry.)

Wait, I was just over there but didn't notice anything substantially different from the last time (which was last week). What changed?


Amy - Mar 16, 2012 10:23:42 am PDT #26841 of 30001
Because books.

Amazon changed for me sometime in the last two weeks, but really on the home page and the drop-downs. The product pages still look more or less the same to me.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

But my copy is in NC with a friend, and I'm broke, and I'm guessing there's a wait list a mile long at the library. Hmph.

I have all three that you can borrow. I have also bought them for my Kindle so I'm pretty well covered. Let me know.

Tom and I can also do animal feedings, gratis, while you are doing extra work.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Huh. I haven't been to Amazon's front page in ages - I almost always follow a link from Google.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Man, I really really need to get out there and move firewood and run errands ahead of this storm, but we got up super early to make a special trip out to the reservation to make a keyboard presentation to a student who passed his first piano book...who turned out to be at an eye appointment. And I have another unscheduled trip to the reservation in the other direction this evening to give lessons and make a guitar presentation, maybe two if the lesson goes well. It's book-passing season, apparently. We want to get it all done in advance of their spring break so the kids have something to do (while they're snowed in) over break.

But I am so tired from this morning and crampy and irritable and it's already windy out there and I just don't wanna. But I need to. This is not stuff that will wait.

And the SO is out there working his tail off in this weather prior to the storm, earning tax cash on his third job. So I really oughtn't bitch.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Nora, you and Tom are the BEST. I didn't want to ask that of you, I feel like I ask for so much, but thank you for offering. I would love it if y'all could feed them tonight. I'm out of dry food, so the kitties just get wet. Frankie gets half a cup of dry and half a cup of wet, add warm water, let sit for a few minutes.

I'd love to borrow the books, too.

Are you watching the parade tomorrow?
