Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Clearly the carrots understand the power of celebrity endorsements.

They learnt it from beholding the power of cheese.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

HA! I am the favorite!

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Now I want a new iPod just so I can have maps. Though i'd prefer not just subway maps but all maps.

Ohh.. iPod with Topo maps.

Last night Lori and I were up all hours watching the DC-Panda Mom and Baby. So cute and so funny becuase Mom was asleep and baby was furiously squiggly, pretty much the panda equivalent of "I'm awake!"

I seem to have been deleted from my school e-mail system. Sadly, I need to wait until 9:00 AM to complain.

From Wired:

This Town Is Off the Hook
A phone company wants to drag a tiny Washington town into the 20th century, but many of Stehekin's 100 or so residents are kicking, screaming and e-mailing about the horrifying prospect of bringing telephone service to the remote region. "Why can't we have one place in this world where there aren't any phones?" said Ana Maria Spagna, a web surfer who sees the irony in the blizzard of e-mail railing against the plan. "So phones are too much progress, but e-mail isn't? I recognize the absurdity. I just choose absurdity." But according to a story in The Seattle Times, not everybody is thrilled with the no-frills Stehekin lifestyle, which is widely touted in tourist brochures promising truly peaceful vacations. Danita Grasser, 14, came to the area three years ago. "It felt like I had been taken out of life and dropped in this little box," she said.

I gotta love someone who embraces absurdity....

Day 7 of the blue sudafed.

I actually had nightmares about blue liquigels. And skin cancer abcesses. Stupid radio.

Yesterday it was a denialish fear because it was the shuttle landing and the last time I woke to news of a shuttle landing, well.... OTOH, it reminded me of watching the landing at White Sands in the midst of a gypsum gale, which I'd totally forgotten.

Swouncing

Everyone should get to see a dancing carrot on their way to work.

I got to drink an oranes-and-carrots juice today. It tasted like oranges, had the aftertaste of carrots, and was the most orange thing I've ever seen. I don't think it danced, though.

It's probably dancing in your tummy right now....

Day 7 of the blue sudafed.

I actually had nightmares about blue liquigels. And skin cancer abcesses. Stupid radio.

But I thought if you took the blue pill, then the story ends.
