Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Have a great trip, meara!

For whatever reason, I now think the Pillsbury doughboy would be hilarious.

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

You'd have to do the giggle. That would be amazing.

Googled, and it was one I vaguely remember: gerbil cannon

There was also the marching band one where they released a ravenous pack of wolves to make it more memorable.

I keep seeing people complain about Pelosi not backing impeachment, but I think she just doesn't have the votes. Having an impeachment vote fail would be a disaster and she can't admit to not having the votes so she's doing pretty much the only thing she can. I could be totally wrong of course.

Because books.

Did people hear that Grandpa Mason died of kidney failure? I'm unreasonably sad.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Did people hear that Grandpa Mason died of kidney failure? I'm unreasonably sad.

Awwww, sweet old man kitty. It sounds like he lived an exceptionally long time with kidney disease, which is amazing. Even so, it's always sad.

Our wings are not tired.

Odd observation from my FB birthday list today. Two friends born the same day that I think would be great friends if they met, which very unlikely to ever happen. My son's uncle by marriage, who is a total Florida dude BMX racing fiend, and Lori S., both born today in 1966. Both super quick to smile and into extreme sports. When I saw them on my page this morning my first thought was how I could totally see them kicking back and having a beer together.

I want to be back home, and I still need to be up here. Frustrated.

Why do you have to stay, Laura?

I know a couple people in meatspace who I've always thought are natural Buffistas. Which is not the same thing as what Laura described, but it's something I've noticed a lot.

From today's Publishers Weekly, under deal news:

Staff writer at The Atlantic Kaitlyn Tiffany's EVERYTHING I NEED I GET FROM YOU: HOW FANGIRLS CREATED THE INTERNET AS WE KNOW IT, a dive into the world of the young women who, beginning with their love for One Direction, shaped the language of the social internet

There is ... a lot wrong with that sentence.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I've passed on telling a couple of co-workers about the buffistas because this is where I gripe about work (and co-workers). They'd have been great fits otherwise.

Oh! I also have a hivemind question: at work, we are doing "famous advertisements" for Halloween. Any good ideas? I can also use my office, so was thinking maybe Folger's Crystals? I can wear whatever but turn my office in a restaurant?

I've dressed up as the Burger King for Halloween before. Got great reactions (and a free bacon King sandwich!) with it.
