Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My father's response was to lean down and pick up a piece of the grating to show that it wasn't bolted down.

I'd have thrown up all over your father.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I blame my mattress for my lack of good sleep lately, so this weekend, I'm going to swap them. I've been sleeping on my grandmother's mattress, and have my previous one in the guest room, so that's easy enough to fix. Although I'll have to excavate the guest room....

This morning's work victory: I figured out how to use the copier to scan something and email it to myself. It's a good thing I figured it out on my own, because I was using it for personal reasons!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Well done! Stick it to the man.

Those big scanners have an internal hard drive, and they save copies of everything that gets scanned.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

But how many people are going to go delving into the depths of that hard drive and then sort through everything scanned?

Not very likely, so you're probably safe, Jesse.

-t and Jessica - thank you so much for your help on the wii fit review. It's done and up at geekmom. I did ask them to make me a River Tam Fight workout and an ATLA tai chi workout.

We went out last night for drinks and a big team dinner. Considering how rough I am feeling right now, I'm glad that I noped out of going to the bar afterward. Still managed to pack my suitcase and check in for my flight successfully last night in spite of all the booze.

The Avatar tai chi idea is brilliant.

Avatar Tai Chi would be awesome.
