Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Ugh, Theo, sorry that's working out to be difficult logistically. Would asking your family in general if anyone has a spare bed you could use for the night be a terrible idea?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I'm so sorry, Scrappy. Hope J is still able to have some happy for his birthday.

Don't know what to do with it? Put it on the dining table and we'll decide later.

Do people use their dining room table for anything other than this? Ours holds an astonishing amount of crap.

Well, 2 or 3 times a year, dining.

From way back:

C. Evans shows up, with or without the pornstache, you know he can get stuff done.

The 2005 Fantastic Four might cure you of that.

Hey, he got stuff done! Johnny Storm-style, but still...

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

For those who might be interested there are some movie/TV themed make-up palettes coming out - Pink Ladies eyeshadow (Grease), Dirty Dancing eyeshadow and, I think, a blusher and Saved by the Bell lip gloss. Info here.

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

Timelies all!

I'm so sorry, Scrappy.

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

Oh, Scrappy, I'm sorry.

For anyone who wants a brief diversion, today's Google doodle is fun.

I'm so sorry, Scrappy.

Checking in from funeral central. My dad is home from the hospital and is doing pretty well. The bruising in his face has really reduced. We're buried under sandwiches and lasagnas. We don't have any immediately family here, but my BiL's and SiL's family have really stepped up.

My siblings are starting to drive me crazy. My sister was in the kitchen complaining about my sister and me even though we could hear her plainly. I finally yelled out, "We can hear everything you're saying."

Thanks for all the kind words, it means a lot.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Husband flies out tomorrow for his interview on Thursday. Husband has done the research for the presentation he is giving. Husband is just now starting the slides, which he assures me is no big deal. I am contemplating whether I could just live in bed for the next three days.

Also, we had to change out his car battery, in the middle of the day, in 95-degree weather.
