Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Put William Macy in different clothes, and he'd be the perfect weatherbeaten pioneer subject of a tintype.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

They weren't their usual Hollywood pretty, but they were incredibly compelling. And Elijah Wood, Nick Cave and (of all people) Flea seem to have absolutely ideal faces for tintypes; I wouldn't have been a bit surprised if the photographer had added a note at the end saying, "Oh, yeah, I threw those three in because I found them in a box of tintypes in someone's attic and they were such great vintage celebrity doppelgangers I couldn't resist."

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh man, I think Flea is when I started thinking "They look like zombies!"

I guess I'm not a tintype gal.

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

Timelies all!

Weird thing happened. While I was using the treadmill, my left foot started feeling like it was asleep. Dunno if it was due to the muscle cramps/tightness in my left calf, but the foot feels normal now.

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

I love the picture of Dana here

What can I say, I know how to pose.

I texted Dana earlier to tell her that my dentist appointment was way more relaxing than any of the meetings I've had today. But it was just a cleaning, no x-rays, and my teeth are good. I wasn't getting a cavity drilled, or anything.

I'm running errands now because I can't do them tomorrow (late evening meetings + hockey game), and I'm getting on a plane Thursday at 7am.

Then I need to login to work when I'm done. I'm starting to wonder if the weight loss secret is being too busy to snack.

Yikes, Sheryl! I hope it's nothing.

I am weirdly stressed that fitting today's run around my eye appointment is not as simple as I was supposing. It's fine, self! It's light out until after 8. Also, I kinda wanted to go shop at the newly re-opened Ace, show my support, but I can't think of anything I can go pick up without doing a lot of research first to make sure my specs are right. Hardware is a tough impulse buy. I mean, it's easy for me to impulsively buy the entirely wrong thing, but I am trying not to do that.

OK, ita, I browsed through a few pages of thumbnails - you have a lot that I like very much. I'm going to go with my first instinct and plump for Seeking God III (with the tiger).

Whoa, not having as bad a day as this semi driver whose truck is now jammed under a bridge. No wonder traffic was backed up!

That's no good for anybody.

Why did I check my work e-mail? Stupid.
