Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Alibelle, thank you so much for the compliment. It's students like my babydyke diver that are the reason I try to tolerate staying at that evil, abusive, micromanaging, pit-of-despair school.

meara...thanks for the advice. I'll guide the babydyke diver as much as I can and pass on your information.

Barb...thanks for the encouragement for babydyke diver, too. I'll let her know about the people cheering her on and that are waiting to see her in 2012.

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

Timelies all!

Quiet day here. I'm going to finally watch the movie I got from Netflix back in June.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I suppose I could legitimately complain about how difficult it is to clean my floors if I washed them more than once every <mumble> months.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

I watched it on Oxygen, which is where I watched most of the equestrian events as well as the field hockey gold medal match. They covered gymnastics every day of the Olympics.

For reasons that are beyond me, Oxygen is the one channel I get that airs everything on East Coast time, rather than West Coast time. So when I got home at five, Stick It was on. Twice in a row. So irritating. And I didn't learn about this fluke until the night before, so I didn't have a chance to go buy a video to record it.

I cannot believe that Franny is five. That's just crazy talk.

Pretty floor, beth!

I have a taxi coming to take me to the airport in 45 minutes. I think I'm packed. I have tossed most of the perishables from the refrigerator.

I probably should zip up my suitcase and put it near the front door so I stop dwelling on what I've forgotten to pack.

Arrrg, why does it have to be Sunday today?

Because it has to be Monday tomorrow.

OK, these boxing announcers are wonderful! After listening to all these pro announcers during the Olympics, I love listening to that Bronx accent. The discussion of the one boxer whose mother used to put him in dresses was great. "If your mom puts you in dresses, you better learn to fight!" "Or run real fast."

Why, yes, it's scrap ends of Olympic competition on as background.

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