Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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

I'm a waffler.

There's an app for that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Steph, I don't need this Quiznos sandwich I'm eating right now, or this Coke. I could be eating lettuce and drinking water.

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

I went to Best Buy with my sister and father. My sister bought a camera, and I looked at netbooks but both of the ones I liked were sold out. The store was nowhere near as full as I expected -- the parking lot for that shopping center had a whole bunch of empty spaces.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm a waffler too, Steph. I want an iTouch bad, but it's hard for me to justify right now. I don't need it--really, does anyone need an iTouch?--but I want it.

Do eeeet, Steph! (And Burrell!)

I just got back from a craft sale. Bought fudge,a handmade wooden spoon and petite little french rolling pin, and a beeswax candle. All for me. (So goes my Xmas shopping.) I also had a red velvet cupcake, the first red velvet anything I have ever had.

But see... if we are talking desired electronics, a GPS is more useful than an iTouch, and a Wii for the family would provide more entertainment value. And there's no way we are going to buy all 3 of them this season.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I am back! I did a lot of shopping, though only a small portion was actual Black Friday shopping; there was a fair bit of "Well, I'm out of the house, let's buy stuff."

My Black Friday victory? Western Digital 1 TB external hard drive for $60 from Target. I called the Target closest to me a little after 9, and they were all out, so I called the next closest, and they wouldn't answer, so I called the next one, and they had two left, so I drove up there as fast as I could and snagged the very last one. Minutes later, a guy came by looking for one to exchange for his, which was defective, but I had just taken his prize. I hope it's not defective.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I need drive rails, but even though I was nearby there was no way I was going to Fry's today. Maybe tomorrow.

I have sneezed three times today. If I have caught my co-worker's ick I'm going to be pissed. He got really miserable.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm a waffler too, Steph. I want an iTouch bad, but it's hard for me to justify right now. I don't need it--really, does anyone need an iTouch?--but I want it.

That's exactly it.

Grumble. I'm such a waffler.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

So Terrence Howard is apologizing to ex-girlfriends on account of having daughters causing him see women in a different light. [link]

Maybe his fixation on baby wipes makes more sense now?
