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

Oh damn. The guys installing Kristen's kitchen tile have the refrigerator blocking the bathroom, and I gotta pee. Like, 'splode.

There's no place to really move it except back in the kitchen and I don't think that's possible. I think I just have to sit very still.

Pray for me.

And if I explode, avenge me.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I put in Chesterton's The Napoleon of Notting Hill, which is in fact the last book I read (finished it during the 2 a.m. feeding last night), and Library Thing Un-Suggested essentially everything Dan Brown has ever written. I can only nod and say, "A wise un-recommendation indeed. For, really, just about anyone."

It also unrecommended The Nanny Diaries, which is a bit more puzzling.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I put in Mystic River, and got a ton of books by Tamora Pierce and Mercedes Lackey.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I put in The Eight by Katharine Neville, Cryptonomicon, and The Mists of Avalon, and got a list of Christian books for all of them.

I think you need to go drive to a coffeeshop. Exploding Allyson wouldn't be a good thing for Kristen to come home to.

OK, physical plant is fucking brilliant. They decided to close down portions of the parking garage to the tune of 40-60 spaces to replace the sprinkler system. In December. No guarantees of parking spaces at the next nearest garage, a 5-10 minute walk away. In December.

Morons.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I put in The Eight by Katharine Neville, Cryptonomicon, and The Mists of Avalon, and got a list of Christian books for all of them.

Heh. I put in that one as well. I meant to try The Secret History.
