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!

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.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I'm going "la, la, la, I can't hear you" about the dogs.

My friend was out of town when her house burned and her dog and cats were being boarded. I suppose there's a chance the fire department would have been called sooner if she had been home, but I don't know how she would have gotten out four cats and a neurotic giant Schnauzer.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm so sorry to hear about the dogs -- that hurts more than losing the other possessions, I'm sure.

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

Timelies all!

Up at 6:30 when Gary's alarm went off, checked that things were still shut down, and here I am. (Couldn't go back to sleep, alas.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here's some bad timing: I just got a solicitation email from the Boston Public Library with the subject line "As Yellow Buses Rumble Down Our Streets." Except, the Boston Public Schools bus drivers are unexpectedly on strike this morning. Whoops!

Because books.

I'd put that in Good Stuff, Jesse.

It makes me furious! Due to being necessary. JFC.

Well, but it's still a good thing for those kids?

Or not! Your call.

I slept stupid late because I could, so I'm not really caffeinated yet.
