Beth, that was UH MAY ZING
I'm finally watching the closing ceremonies. Turns out the Lopez siblings all medaled. You'd think NBC might have shown us a little Tae Kwon Do what with the Visa ads and all.
Yesterday, my life's like, 'Uh-oh, pop quiz!' Today it's like, 'rain of toads.'

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Plei, you must have gotten home all of five minutes before you started posting. Craxy, I think.
My one true Olympics crush. I was shameless. Books, posters, recordings, the whole deal.
Understandable, ita. Daley Thompson rocked.

Yeah, I'm skipping again (I'm grading, slower than a - oh, think of an image containing glaciers-in-the-shape-of-a-turtle without any global warming being forced to pretend they may at some point start to drift, and you get the idea regarding the pace I manage to work. Only glaciers don't tend to fall asleep once or twice a day, regardless of anything, so there's also that. This sleep thing? Highly recommended. I still need to wrap my mind around the concept of doing it each and every night, and to finish with all this grading so that I can get back to, you know, actually doing some fun stuff, but I digress).
Anyway, I'm only poking my head because, according to the Buffista Calendar, it's Jessica's and Fone Bone's anniversary, and I wanted to wish them both a great day and a wonderful year!
[Edited because apparently becoming a glacier-in-the-shape-of-a-turtle doesn't go well with an ability to spell.]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm at work, and they haven't cranked up the air conditioning yet. It's so warm here... It's making me... sleepy...

Wow, I am actually caught up enough to wish someone happy something on the correct day!
Happy anniversary Jessica and Fone Bone
Nilly, have you had a chance to wreak the appropriate level of havoc for the closed (when it should be opened) office yet?

Nilly, you've just been through a pretty stressful time -- even if it's good-making stress, it's still stress. So the need for excess sleep makes a lot of sense to me.
Yeah, after almost a week of lovely "early autumn" weather, we're back to summer with the hot, humid, and t-storms predicted here. You just know that August had to get one last sucker punch in, right?
