If you were a seven year old girl or a ten year old girl, do you think you would like these as stocking stuffers?
Lee, that's a dangerous site. So many tempting things: the Seven Deadly Sins Wristbands, "What Would a Pirate Do?" Spin Folder, Jane Austen action figures...
I have spent the last 20 minutes making my cats insane with catnip, brushing and a sheet of irridescent plastic. Only stopped because I cracked my fingers against the table leg so hard I teared up.
I guess I really ought to pay bills, huh?
On the bus they're advertising a coffee machine that tells you the weather. Shrug.
Does it make recommendations based on the weather?
Today, it's damp and in the low 60s. We recommend a smooth french roast...
Would "foggy" be commenting on the weather or just the state of your decaffeinated brain?
I can't believe there was this whole conversation, and no one brought up coffee!!

We need to add that to shit we need to take to the patent office. Does Hec have a file?
I'm sending an APB out for Strega. If you see her in some thread, being contrary, please send her my way.
What if she's being agreeable?
You know, Clooney was a lot less attractive in 1989 than he is now (IMO). Damn him - who has the right to be better looking at 45 than at 30?
You know what, though? Clooney has the same thing going on that Robert Redford does and that (I think) Brad Pitt does. When they were younger, they were just sort of generically pretty -- DAMN pretty, but in a sort of unstamped-coin kind of way. Shiny, but generic.
After some years, though, they're no longer generic. Their coin of attractiveness has been stamped.
I always felt that Princess Di was like this, too.
Yep. See also Grant, Cary and Gable, Clark.
ABC Family is rerunnign Gilmore Girls from the first season, and Flatmate calls me into the room whenever Dean (now Sam on Supernatural) in on the screen, so I can witness how ungainly and odd he is (at something like age 17).
Really? I'm surprised because Jensen Ackles was a beautiful child on
Days of Our Lives.
He was beautiful the way (very young Elijah Wood was beautiful, although, I think Elijah's beauty, except for his eyes, has mostly faded, where Ackles has gotten even more striking).
Sorry, Plei. I meant Not!Dean. I confuse myself.
Oh crap, I'm so confused.
One of the student instructors yesterday asked me if I was going to fight them in their test.
"Yes." I said. "I'll be there for you."
And then it was horrible, like the words were being yanked out of my mouth on a rope--I mean, I was scoring a test at the time and trying to focus on that.
"These five words I swear to you...when you breathe I wanna be the air for you..."
Oh man, ita. This needs to be COMMed, but I'm already an over-COMMer and I just put up Cashmere's apples/oranges quip.
What I don't understand about smoking is why the first person did it. We have an Indian with a tobacco plant. He tried eating the leaves, but it made him sick, tobacco being quite poisonous. He then said, "I can't eat this, so I think I'll dry it and inhale the smoke."
I read recently that Native Americans smoked tobacco medicinally, because a small amount actually helped relieve uncomfortable respiratory problems, and that it was the Europeans who took it to extremes (and who got so easily addicted, because they hadn't had generations to get used to tobacco use -- sort of a reverse of the situation with the high rate of alcoholism among Native Americans).
We need to add that to shit we need to take to the patent office.
If we're gonna do a patent, I want the Mood Coffee Machine. Instead of recommendations based on the weather, you put your finger on a pad and it dispenses a beverage based on your mood.
You're very anxious today! Have some green tea.
You'd have to be able to individually program it. For me, it would be:
You're very anxious today! I'm making you a triple expresso. Try not to kill anyone.
