It helps that the internet director for the station is a skater on the league!

Argh. My fucking cat (love you, Homer!) has been peeing everywhere and won't take his pill again! Over the past couple of days, he's become a genius at tonguing it out after I think he's swallowed it. Gross. I have got to get better at this.

I wonder if maybe there once was a cat here, and not in my old place (or at least not since they refinished the floors), because he was SO MUCH better about peeing there.

Poor Jesse and Homer!

If Hil is around, I want to thank her for the idea of posting Labor Day videos on Facebook. I can't figure out how to share or do@ replies on Facebook on my phone.

Dammit! I'm trying to book a flight on Orbitz, and every time I hit Select on the flight I want, it refreshes and gives me a list of flights again! Is it broken or am I stupidly doing something wrong? There are only 2 tickets left on this flight (supposedly) and I don't want to miss it.

I'm trying to give you money, you bastards, WTF?

Oh, ugh, Jesse. How frustrating for you and Homer.

Kat, I'm sorry about the whole wretched long weekend, for you and your folks and especially Gracie. I'm so glad she's home again, but oh do you all need a break.

ita (and others) alert: I hope these images are visible to non-members: a kids' clothing discount website called zulily.com has occasional grown-up stuff, and they've got a bunch of ridiculously good deals on some really gorgeous dresses from a label called Dress Accordingly today:

eta: Matilda got dressed for the movie today, all black in honor of Black Widow. We already quashed a quick dye job, or she would totally have BW's hair too.

e again ta: if you'd like a membership invite, just ask - I get $20 for anyone I invite who signs up and makes a purchase, and we could probably work out some kind of mutual store-credit-sharing thingie.

it's not that time perception slows, but that the brain concentrates so hard on noticing everything at those moments that a flood of sensory data that is usually ignored not only gets noticed but evaluated and remembered, hence a half-second fall off a ladder seems like a couple seconds worth of experience.

This has good timing with the upcoming Dredd release, because that's kind of the premise of te couge llellyregat

The who with the what now?

Quick question. I have a friend who just got diagnosed with early stage breast cancer and underwent removal of the tumor about 10 days ago. All went well and they haven't found any lymph node involvement, so hopefully she'll be fine with adjunctive radiation therapy alone. I'll probably go visit her soon and thought it might be nice to get her a card and a gift, but I have no idea what to get her. She's a professional woman in her early 40's, and fairly girly.

Vonnie, I would be careful about pink things. I know it's the color of breast cancer awareness, but my mother, in a similar situation, was very "meh" on the whole pink thing.

Maybe a pashmina or something like that? Lightweight and pretty, but could help with body temperature regulation?

I was thinking about something like that, actually. A pretty scarf, maybe. She loves scarves. There is always lotions and bath stuff, but I don't know what kind of scent she likes.
