"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Good dog!

I hope you find your people, or new people who are good to you.

Apparently Paula Broadwell's house in Charlotte is very close to that of Rielle Hunter's (John Edwards mistress and mother of his child). That makes the bus tour a little easier.

Me, too! But he's very lucky he got Dana to take him in. Good on you, Dana. I hope he finds a forever home, as the rescue people call it.

Oooh, check out Paula Broadwell's high school prom picture. She's totally got the Liz Lemon High School perm.

Oh, snap.

A coworker brought in a big box of slightly-stale cookies, all different times, and when I asked him where they were from, he claimed he baked them all himself.

... I do not believe him.

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

I don't know that I've ever watched a James Bond movie all the way through

And I've never not! Well, okay, I don't mean I'm always watching all of them all the way through--just that I've seen them all in the theater since Moonraker, and everyone but Skywall more than once, up into the tens the further back you go.

JAMES BOND IS NOT OPTIONAL

I don't understand you guys.

I think Diwali is the second most observed holiday here, third if you count Halloween. Just talked a co-worker into going back to his car and getting his long kurta. He's wearing a short tunic now, and it's the least Western I've ever seen him look--I have been ragging on him for being overly Americanised (the from-India Indians here don't hesitate to taste the food I offer them, but he clams up like most of the people with an American passport, which is a sad grouping. Live a little, people! It's just a plum!)

I busted ass to get here for my 8 o'clock meeting without realising it was at 9. Which is good, because I would have been 1 minute late, and wondering about my breakfast the whole time.

when the focus was on Savile

Jimmy Savile is totally the sort of guy that makes you go "I'm totally not surprised..." isn't he? Post hoc skeeve galore.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I'm editing an article about a weight-loss drug*, and now I just really want a cheeseburger. I am so impressionable.

*(Seriously, all of the studies in this article were funded by the manufacturers of the drug. HOW IS THAT NOT SKETCHY?!?)

Maybe it was a very early holiday cookie exchange? Or frozen dough.

Happy birthday, Hil!

I am at a new dentist. So far not impressed by the office staff, though it doesn't help that I ha to walk all the way around the block because I missed the building entrance!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oooh, check out Paula Broadwell's high school prom picture. She's totally got the Liz Lemon High School perm.

Whatever, she looks good for 1991! (I graduated high school in 1991.)

I don't understand you guys.

Americans don't need James Bond. We have.... Reagan? That doesn't seem right.
