Really disturbing report in the Guardian about the crackdown on Occupy being coordinated between Wall Street, Homeland Security and FBI via the Domestic Security Alliance Council.
Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Love all the wedding smackdown talk.
also, yay avoiding UC.
It is cold outside, and I had a whole plan to clean my room and organize my closet, as a "getting ready for new year" plan, but now I don't want to leave the house. Except somehow I lost half of the hangers I bought right before Christmas (I bought 2 packs of 25, and now one pack is missing), so I need more. Dilemma.
Also, I feel not as sick as I did earlier (when I woke up with a horrible sore throat, AND a massive hangover, yay meds took that away), but I am all achey. And bruised from falling down stairs. And have weird stripes on my back like I was whipped or something, but no idea what it's from (girl was like "Um, have you been secretly visiting a dungeon without me?" and I laughed, but when she took a picture of my back so I could see it, I was like "WTF?!?!")
I was actually thinking that when ND and I are ready for a vow renewal, Jilli and Clovis may have to officiate.
YES. The Devilbunny and I are so, SO good with this plan.
Ouch! You may have picked up the bruises falling down the stairs, but I'm willing to believe that a lapsed memory related to the hangover could be responsible.
Hah--I wish I could blame the falling down stairs on the drunk! But no, it happened earlier in the day, at home. And now I have a huge bruise on my forearm (which hit the edge of a stair) and on my ass (which, y'know, cushioned the blow).
I had the same thought, Laura, about the falling down the stairs leading to the bruising on the back. Poor meara, sounds like a lot of tender bruise spots.
Hey, all.
Love the idea of Buffista-officiated vow renewals! (Lord, I can see the costumed mass renewal at a F2F now...)
"Are y'all doin' onenna them cult-marriage thangs?"
"No, of cours-- um, kinda?"
"Cause Elmer and me, we got all the seasons of BSG and I can cook real good..."
"Wha—huh. Really? What do you like to cook?"
"Well, I do a mean caramel torte with black sea salt. Went on up to the Cordon Bleu when I got bored with Olympic dressage. But Elmer, he don't cook anything much. Anything he's got burning in his lab, I ain't putting in my mouth, no how."
"Hmm. Marvel or DC?"
"Both. Democrat or Republican?"
"Both. And neither. It's all fucked up. Blu-ray?"
"Yep. High-speed or...dial-up?"
"God, you don't have to be insulting!"
"Well, you cain't be too careful with your fandom's nowadays. Can't go along cult-kinda-group-maybe-marrying anyone."
"Dude, totally! So...um...got a costume? Oh! And a name?"
I wish I could blame the falling down stairs on the drunk! But no, it happened earlier in the day, at home.
Maybe we should bubble-wrap you.
All my comical injuries happen when I'm sober. Sometimes it would be nice to blame my lack of coordination on something.
You're a kind sister-in-law, vw.
I've been thinking about getting new pillows, and was in Marshall's earlier, and guess how much they cost? Thirteen bucks! WTF. I should get new ones more often.
I'm loving the Buffistas wedding-officiant smack-down and would love to be a witness to any/all vows and vow renewals.
Also - finally home after accidentally spending a week away for Christmas.
It was enjoyable - but it's nice to be home.
