Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So I see now about the new Gmail. Interesting. I switched over my main account. Doesn't seem like it will take too much getting used to.
I only used to get the humidifier in my room as a kid when I was sick, so I always associate them with being sick.

Because books.
I don't have the new Gmail! I don't think I want it, but I don't like it not being offered. Hmph.
I was out on Sunday, and one of those big clocks outside a store had been changed (or set to change) and I was so confused.

Amy, check the bottom right hand corner of your Gmail account the next time you're in there -- mine had a dialogue box with "Switch to the new look."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Women with drinking problems, a photo essay.
That is too funny, in a not-actually-funny way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Spousal sexual disinterest came up in a discussion of a relationship in one of my sister's classes this week, and everyone was suggesting homosexuality as a reason, and she pointed out that asexuality could also possibly be responsible. She was all puffed up about knowing about it. It was so cute.
She also riled up my psychiatrist aunt by calling someone crazy. She mollified her by explaining it wasn't a value judgment, it was just a description. Then she asked me to name three non-crazy people in our family (and then quickly disqualified our father's side of the family). I listed myself, and she laughed quickly, and said that negated everyone else I was going to list too. Hmmph. Her estimates are 80% crazy. I don't see why I can't be in the 20%.

Okay, I suspect we're kind of maxed out on Occupy photos, but seriously, y'all gotta check this out. Scroll down to the last one, Photo #43. It's so fabulous.

Both! The airwasher never did jack shit for the humidity level in any room I tried it in.
Well, poop. I got it for the same issue, really -- in the winter I used to wake up a raw throat because it was so dry, and it did definitely help with that. I guess since it's fairly passive all sorts of things about the room could make a difference in how effective it is? I say again, poop.
