Wow, Sophia, that is an intense discovery. Did he know about you?

The cats let me sleep in until after 8am (normally they start campaigning around 5:30am). I'd love to crawl back in bed, but we are heading down to a rodeo in a couple of hours. Yeee-haw.

Must have been something in the air, because my cats lets me sleep in until after seven. Now, I've just woken up from a accidental 2 hour nap. This is the best rested I've been in weeks.

I listed 7 things on ebay yesterday and 2 are selling.

Today thus far has been lunch and French Open. I am eyeing a stack of paper and a shelf of decorative eggs. I thin it is time to part with all or most of the eggs.

ideas of what to do with CDs with no cases?

Guess what I learned today? The bedroom door is narrower than all the other doors. I had to take the door off the hinges to get the sofa & chairs in. Sometime tonight (after my 9 hour drive) I'll post the final pic of 3-D Tetris the Home Game.

It was just head-snapping to hear her say it.

And surely it would have been better phrased as "This neighborhood is full of bigots" rather than making it seem like being a same-sex couple is something you're doing to them.

Sophia, wow. I wish I had something more cogent to say, but...wow.

Today Dylan and I went to Economy Candy and bought ALL THE CHOCOLATE in preparation for his Charlie And The Chocolate Factory birthday party next weekend. Now the hard part begins: not eating it until next Saturday. Then I bought him McD's for lunch, and now we're watching Wall-E. This kid is so spoiled.

Wow, Sophia. I hope you're doing okay.

Hair upkeep: I need to get Pete to trim my bangs back into a sharper point, and I need to refresh all the black dye. There was a solid 6 months when my neck was welting up that I couldn't dye the back of my hair. That gets fixed today.

Poor Pix, with the bitey things!

If there's "no purple" how come there's an ultra-violet on the color chart?

Sophia, wow. Hope you're doing okay with your discovery.

And on a completly different level of intensity, they need to step offa purple. I did find out on Radiolab the other day that a mantis shrimp has, I think, 16 different color receptors. Compared to our three. Trippy, the life of a mantis shrimp. Butterflies have five or six depending. Dogs only have two, poor suckers.

I had to give up and skip 5,000 posts. Sucks.

Maxim is commemorating the tenth anniversary of The Wire's debut with some snippets from most of the people on the show.

Nice read, thanks! Now I want to rewatch it all.

Emmett's struggling to pry some coconut out of the shell and Matilda just helpfully suggested, "Why don't you flex your sixpack at the coconut, Emmett?"

The snark is strong with this one. t /Yoda
