Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I did not have an electric stove until this apartment and I hate it. I swear I checked, too, but I can't believe that they switched types of stoves between me renting and moving in. Although they did install a gas furnace in my apartment, so I guess it is possible.

I am playing that Song Pop game on Facebook, and I am sort of appalled that I can identify "Cum on Feel the Noise" in .8 seconds. I hate that song!

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

I prefer cooking with gas, but if I'm not getting gas, I like my flat electric the most. I don't like the exposed coil electrics at all.

So, I've asked my sister to tell mother I'm not up to calling home today--I wonder if I can get her to tell the BFF I ain't skyping today either. I slept 2 hours last night, plus a few grabbed minutes of dilaudid doses. I am not for public consumption.

I haven't had a gas stove in over 15 years. Not sure I'd know what to do with one.

Tomorrow is CJ's schedule pick up for his Sophomore year. School starts a week from Tuesday for him. Crazy!

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

Anybody doing anything for Curiosity's landing? It should be on the surface of Mars by 10:30 board time. Hopefully in one piece.

The Adler Planetarium is having an event for the landing, but I don't feel like driving home after 12:30 am. Plus parking here at 1:00 am would be a bitch.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, the Chabot Space Center is doing something too, but it's $15.95 and I don't feel like going anywhere today.

Land well, little space probe!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh ugh, ita. Do you have to go to the office tomorrow?

Correction: Curiosity should touch down at 10:31:30 PM board time.

Three seconds later the cables connecting Curiosity to the skycrane should be cut, and the skycrane then should fly away.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I am so excited about Curiosity!

Lori is doing something since she worked on it. She's very excited.

Noah locked the one bathroom door we have with everyone on the outside of the bathroom. Even though we only have one bathroom. ARGH.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I love my gas stove, except that it has three pilots and the window A/C unit in the kitchen doesn't work.
