I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Natter 74: Ready or Not  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Words you never expected to hear, yet strangely true in this case. A stopped giant series of clock necklaces is right twice a day.

Possibly only funny to me and Teppy: having listened to the Anna Faris podcast with them, if Jenny Slate and Chris Evans are actually dating and trying to be quiet about it, then that podcast was the dating version of Jean-Ralphio and Mona-Lisa's Don't be Suspicious song.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

that podcast was the dating version of Jean-Ralphio and Mona-Lisa's Don't be Suspicious song.

That is HILARIOUS.

That is HILARIOUS.

RIGHT? I mean, it's totally possible that they're just friends and the media is once again acting like two people can't hang out and be affectionate just for the sake of liking each other (which they seem to, and also, I'm pretty sure they were both somewhat stoned), but if that's not the case, then damn.

Especially with the subjects of two of the advice calls.

Also, the podcast was hilarious. Though the second-to-last advice call was extremely listen from the hall.

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

Oh, whew, looks like my hour-and-a-half meeting is getting rescheduled. I feel like I have been underwater all morning with orders that need special handling, switching gears and being able to have a coherent discussion about process improvement would have been difficult today. Also, still tired from yesterday, just staying awake for the rest of the day will be enough of a challenge, frankly.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have rec letters to write, Kat, and with a similar level of don't wannas. But the longer I delay, the more days of my summer get lost to Don't Wannas.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh, for those keeping score at home, I finally ordered glasses. Didn't go with my first choice after redoing all the eye glass/pupillary distance measurements and realizing that I was about to buy gasses sized for a toddler and they never would have fit.

Went with these for reading glasses: link

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Those are great Burrell. If they have those when I need new glasses, we may be optical twins. Or at least, I keep wanting to go with something like that but end up with metal half rims.

In the green, Burrell? Cute!
