This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I vote yes, meara.

And also, if I do one thing, I have GOT to remember to go to the supermarket after work! I've been out of milk for days, but now I'm also out of coffee. Tomorrow will be a disaster if I forget again.

Caffeine is worth a try, meara! The rice bowl thing was fine. I wouldn't go out of my way to find it again, it's not that exciting, but nothing wrong with it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Caffeine certainly can't hurt.

Mr. Blobby would give me nightmares as well. I don't think that guy was fake-cringing.

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

Timelies all!

It's been snowing all day. Luckily it's not sticking much to the roads. (The temperature is supposed to be in the 40s tomorrow, and the 50s on Sunday. I just don't know....)

I have been working very hard all day on various emergencies. Given that my sinuses are aching so much that I want to claw my face off, I think I'm going to head home early and work from my couch.

Thank you! I did!!

I had no idea there were so many Canadian accents. Strong French, all-but-standard-broadcast-American, New Englandish, a little British, and odd pronunciation coming when I least expect it.

The lady judge on GCBBS has a terrible mid-atlantic accent that sounds like she's trying to do Kim Cattrall impression. I can't stand her. Season 2 is much better than season 1, BTW. And I think Bruno is from France. He's got a from France accent.

And that just sounds like the eastern part of Canada!

Dude, I can think of at least 7 distinct accents in NS alone! Some from just one town. Newfoundland, even crazier.

My friend was in rural Newfoundland with her Nova Scotian husband and they stopped at a Tim Horton's and before they went in she said to him, "Just let me do all the talking because they won't understand you and you won't understand them."

The lady judge on GCBBS

I thought she had an odd voice. Where is the lady comic relief from?
