All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I can't tell from this story [link] , is he saying all singing is un-Islamic or just girls singing?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The saga of the Craigslist table: people are coming by to look at it. (Not the SITE UNSEEN woman, but someone who has tried to talk us down on price.) We hauled it out to the garage, and it's going to have to stay there until someone buys it, because it was a pain in the ass to get it out of the door.

She's supposed to come by at 5. We're not full of hope.

Because books.

They are letting me not get chewed out for my fuckups today, I think.

That's a good thing.

I don't get people. I've never called about a Craiglist thing I didn't immediately make arrangements to see and/or buy. No one has manners anymore.

But we knew this, I guess.

Almost time for cake! We're still digesting dinner, which was T-bones (on sale!) and mashed potatoes and broccoli, at the birthday boy's request.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Today's dinner is the bratwurst we were supposed to do yesterday for the Superbowl but since we didn't have anyone over, we just got lazy and picked up Little Caesars.

At 5:20, we called them. They have to get a truck to pick up the table. New time is supposedly 6.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So all my friends' kids are doing science fair projects right now. Is it the season? I think there should be science fair for adults.

When I was a kid my best science fair project was the one where I did auditory testing. I generated a bunch of tones on my C64 and recorded them on my walkman and played them to people of various ages and did surveys on their environments to test their hearing. I don't remember what I was trying to prove, although I remember that I didn't quite do all the phrasing right. It was hella fun, though, and I got to interview a real live audiologist and go into her silent chamber which was AWESOME and made me want to be an audiologist. It was so great she happened to be female, because it was a very empowering thing for young me.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Looking at the credits for the Iz version I can't actually tell where I first heard it--they blur into each other.

I first heard it when Dr. Mark Greene died on ER. Then Finding Forrester. After that it blurs.

Good luck, Dana.

Mostly, I want them to come so I can change into my pajamas.

Me too on the ER thing...and I remember one time shopping with my best friend not too long after, and turning to her and being like "why am I suddenly all SAD?!?" And realizing that song was playing.

I am in Samta Barbara. It is lovely, but I have no oomph to get anything done.

Wow, Jo's really made a go of it!

It was a day. That's about it. My ear hurts. Actually, I think it is sinus, but right in there. I've been fighting this...it's not an ick. It's weird come and go congestion.

Devi's...about the same. But her fur is looking rougher. If I could find her damn favorite brush, I'd try that.
