I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Eta: wait, I think my great grandfather on the Finnish side worked in a mine in the UP to get enough money to bring his family over from Finland.

My granddad worked in a UP mine for a while to support his Finnish immigrant family.

Hmmmm. Now I want a pastie and a sauna.

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

OK, feeling like a doof, but...

In Word 2010, I need that bar at the top of the screen to show up so I can fix some formatting stuff and I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW TO CALL IT UP. Or what it's called.

I've used it a million times, and I am memfaulting like crazy! I've Googled - no love - and now am in need of hivemind-fu, please?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

So boss called, says her hubby scored 15 gallons of gas, and if I could score enough gas (to get to her house) from my jack hole neighbor, I can fill up with her 15 so I can get back home every night for my cats (or alternatively keep my indoor/outdoor cats in her basement, oh heck no). The first option would be great if the begging of neighbor part wasn't so painful to consider.

RULER!! (Just fist-pumped and shouted "FUCK YEAH MOTHERFUCKER!! God, I love working at home...) Thanks, Brenda, you gave me that leetle memory push I needed.

O, Juliebird, that truly does suck.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, how about this, or this?

Thanks, Tom, but no. I like the idea of Etsy, though! But they have none that meet my needs.

I should really stop buying treats on the way home from yoga. It kind of defeats the whole purpose.

Random snotty comment: Someone on the internet doesn't understand how one of the local races is now uncontested, when there were so many people in the Democratic primary. There was no one in the Republican primary, that's how! That is how this system works.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Man, they're trying to pass a proposition in ours where the regular primaries would be replaced by an all-parties primary and the top two from that go on the ballot. Which, practically speaking, here would mean there would always be two republican candidates on the ballot, and of course, never a third party candidate. Fuckers.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That's what we have now in California for state elections and I am not pleased, Liese. I'd rather have more options in the actual election than more options in the primary.
