AND, Allyson was too polite to goggle, but the kid with the backward legs behind her was freaky.
ALSO ALSO I've got a copy of Allyson's book in my lap right now AIFG!
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Hurrah for book availability! I shall go and fetch it from my local bookpusher ASAP.
I'm off to Readercon this AM with a song in my heart and caffeine in my veins. Of course, for the first couple hours I'm going to be helping at Registration which is more for aiding a friend in distress than fun, but that's enjoyable in its way....

The Dalai Lama likes super glue! From The Writer's Almanac
It's the birthday of the 14th Dalai Lama, born in Tibet (1936). He has written, in collaboration with other scholars, several dozen collections of Buddhist teachings. In 1959, he took 80,000 refugees to India rather than give in to Chinese rule in Tibet. Although he was schooled as a monk, he is also a good mechanic. When he was growing up in the monastery, he fixed broken machines of all kinds. Several years ago his younger brother gave him his first tube of Superglue. He was enchanted

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ouch, Cash! I agree with everyone -- I've never heard that there's anything in particular they can do with a little toe, so buddy taping is the way to go.
Hooray for Real Life Books!!
ION, why oh why do I realize things when it's too late? I sent off the wrong version of something at work on Tuesday. OK, granted, I never actually created the right version, but my plan is to do it today so it's ready if the issue actually comes up. Which it may not. Stupid work.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Legs on backwards? Good grief, how horrible. I never heard of that before. I didn't think that was even possible. What can they do for the poor child? Can they take them off and put them back on right, like Legos? Man, I'm going to be thinking about that all day.

Remind me to ping lisah. A friend of a friend is considering a job here and while I can offer some tips, I AM a homebody, so I need to hook her up with more connected people.
Ooh I know stuff!
I can't get to my yahoo this morning. WTF?

Grump, grump! My trains were fucked up this morning, AND the Big Boss is in the office, for the first time since last week some time. However, I can get into yahoo. And I already did the thing I forgot to do earlier, so that's something.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I am waiting for confirmation from the hub that Vampire People is indeed at the bookstore so I can Start the Pimping Engines. WHY WILL HE NOT TEXT ME??
eta: We have a confirmed vampire people sighting on the east coast. W00T!

I accidentally had a three hour nap last night, then got my regular amount of sleep and I am exhausted today. Also, my boss is away and left me with a ton of stuff to do, none of which I have the brainpower for today.
