I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

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

So, cool? Freaky? WTF-y?

Ugh. The problem with being sick yesterday and getting nothing done is now I have twice as much to do today...and do not have any more desire to complete it. Argh.

Stephanie, that sucks a lot. I know you were worried he'd do that--I vote taking him to court and kicking him in the 'nads. Not at the same time.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I vote cool, freaky AND WTF-y.

Hey, is anyone else having issues with tumblr? It's been grindingly slow on my work computer for the past couple of days, but OK at home, I think.

It was super tetchy yesterday at home. But fine today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay!

I'm in with Scandal. The thing that was the problem with this ep of the show is that I feel like the writers forgot most of what they wrote about all the main characters. People weren't exactly acting like I had come to believe they would

Just watched. My biggest issue is that they haven't given us any reason to care about Quinn so all the focus and sacrifice is irritating rather than interesting. They needed to be dropping some clues well before this.

See, I was able to guess pretty quickly that the reason she was hired, and a "client" was because they were all up in that business of making her show up as a new fake person.

But I expect that this season, she'll be more of a gray hat, as opposed to the charging-in-on-her-white-horse type we saw last year. Which could be awesome, or could just be irritating. I'm giving it a few more episodes, but so far not impressed.

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

What kind of surgery does one have on their eyes to make the anime look easier? Her makeup was so clearly optical illusion that I'm confused.

But good on you for the organization.

This is probably the only way I'll remember which pharmacy I need to go back to to get the bit of meds that they can't fill until tomorrow. Bless the electron, bless.

Incompetent developer is pissed I tell her things at the last minute. Honey, they're discovered at the last minute. I'm not keeping secrets from you--I'm telling you within 24 hours of finding out. The alternative is not telling you. I told the architect she wouldn't do the implementation the way I told her, because she thought I'd gone rogue (her word), and he laughed so hard. He seriously wasn't going to weigh in with his authority, because he thought it was so funny she wouldn't listen to me. But she only listens to her manager and developers. Her manager pretty much can't work a command line, so I'm not sure of the practicality of that distinction, but good on her for being at least marginally pragmatic. I think working so far away from the rest of her team has made her majorly paranoid.

Okay, time to trim the nails. Typing is interfered with.

Oh, hey! IMDB lowercased my first name. Finally.

Meara, yes, but the why is still missing. For me, anyway.

except for being so annoying and incompetent that you figured that there had to be something else going on?
