Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sheryl, what about Zappos?

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years.

I also feel like these expensive boots I have haven't lasted long enough! But they were amazing for a while. And are still fine in dry weather.

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

The problem with Zappos is that I don't have the time to get to the post office to send back stuff that doesn't fit.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

And juliana beats me to the Vimes. Well done!

(Hi, folks. I'm here and reading, just lacking time/energy to post.)

Stoooopid foot. I get it hurting when I've been doing a bunch of walking, but today I've been working, crafting, and writing a paper. Very little actual walking around. And yet. Stooooopid foot.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm sorry, msbelle.

RE: Gizmo finding hidey holes... It took me about a week to figure out that Rosie and Gilda were hiding inside a swivel rocker when I first got them. They outgrew some of the hiding spots, but they also gradually realized that indoor life meant they didn't *have* to hide really well to nap.

sumi, that's wonderful that you are enjoying the new job!

I just got a FB event notice from my employer that made me gasp in delight when I saw that the event features Gina Torres! Then I noticed that the event is off-site. Damnit!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

My cat's favorite hidey hole is often his carrier, which I leave in a corner of the living room. He also hates his collar. So when we went to the vet this week I picked up his collar, walked toward him with intent, and Leifur ran right into his carrier. I closed it and there we were—ready for the vet with minimal fuss and drama.

Last night I dreamed that they were making a Buffy-Teen Wolf mashup, with the original teen characters playing adult versions of themselves. Adult Buffy, Willow, and Xander kept face-palming as they watched the new teens do the same stupid stuff they'd done, only this time with cell phones.

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

I am in the world's foulest mood, and if my coworker continues to be her usual self, I'm going to...sit here in a different city and be snarly about it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Ohhh FUCKING TRUMP AND his FUCKING APOLOGISTS AND SUPPORTERS. Fuck them all.

I want to scream and punch things and possibly set fire to a few people.
