Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

'Underneath'

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Nova is staring at me and meowing pitifully. In other words, it's a day.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Consuela, that's yet another reason that I bless MA, which although it's clearly overburdened, is at least visibly trying to make the unemployment process less onerous, starting with the base assumption that a claimant isn't trying to rip off the state.

Thank goodness for tablets, smartphones and books, because if you're going to have to spend hours trying to get what's due you, you need all the entertainment you can carry.

tommy -- thanks for the link to that crash footage. It is INDEED amazing that so many people walked away unharmed. The jet not only bounced, but spun at least 180. (Now we know why the attendants are so insistent about everything being adequately stowed for landing...)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I missed my shuttle home today, so I walked, because the heat broke! It is very pleasant out! And also I went by this bakery that has pretzel rolls, and they are disappointing! No salt on the outside. Still good, but not all I dreamed of.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Got one single can of very cheap wet catfood. Girls went gaga over it. I feel so evil that wet food really isn't in my budget when it makes their tummies so very happy.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I signed up to auto-pay the cable bill on June 9. Nothing has been paid, my bill looks threatening, and there's a late fee.

My estimated wait time is more than 15 minutes.

Or it would be, if the automated phone system hadn't hung up on me MOTHERFUCKERS I HATE YOU PEOPLE SO MUCH.

Cable companies are the worst.
