And then there's this tumblr, Tilda Stardust: [link]

HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THAT TUMBLR. HOW? IT IS A THING OF BEAUTY AND I LOVE IT.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Tilda Swinton is 2 years older than me! Wow. I love her.

She does not seem in her 50s!

I went out dancing and it was feeling really good, but then my tummy was super unhappy. I think I do not recommend the new "steak and ale pie" from trader joes. It looked like a good idea, but not only did it not agree with me, it seemed like it was 80% crust. The ratio was just off.

I had the same problem with TJ's brie en croute. Too much croute per brie.

No matter how awake I am, really not down with being at work before sunrise. Gnergh.

In your defense, sunrise has gotten later of late.

Still too damned early.

And I just realized my next hair appt is the same saturday as the marathon, the one day getting south or west of the city is just stupid. And besides, I want to go cheer the runners on. I'm going to have to reschedule….

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

pumpkin spice is just cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, isn't it?

Pumpkin spice lattes are the demon spawn of Starbucks, who concocted the beverage about 11 years ago.

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

Can you get a pumpkin spice chai latte? And is it like chai squared?

I ought to be able to make a statistics joke out of that.

Edited to correct autocorrect, sigh

From the NYT coverage:

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday denied review in all five pending same-sex marriage cases, clearing the way for such marriages to proceed in Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin.

The move was a major surprise and suggests that the justices are not going to intercede in the wave of decisions in favor of same-sex marriage at least until a federal appeals court upholds a state ban.
