Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I cannot decide what to do with my days off. I have 4.5 days left this year and I can roll over up to 3. I have just put in for 2.5 before Christmas. So the remaining 2? Take 1 or both the week after Christmas while mac is in care? or rollover so I will have extra days in the 6 months before the move (since I only get 11 days/year)?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I vote roll over -- you'll want the time.

My random issue of the day: I seem to be doing something in my sleep that works my deltoids. What could it beeeee?

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

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

Heh, Kat, that's awesome. Matilda's contribution along the same lines was yesterday while we were visiting my dad. I got up to go to the ladies', she immediately wanted to come with me, and as we were heading down the hall my dad said, "Hey, where are you guys going?"

"Uhhh, we're gonna powder our noses."

Matilda gave me a baffled What is up with you, lying lady telling lies? look and yelled, "Mommy's going to the bathroom to pee!"

Oh my dad, how he did laff and laff.

Interesting quote from Obama:

Quote For The Day II

"Frankly, this town and the way the political dialogue is structured right now is not conducive to what we need to do to be globally competitive. And all of you are leaders in your communities -- in the business sector and the labor sector, in academia, we even have a few pundits here -- it is important to understand what's at stake and that we can't keep on playing games. I mentioned that I was in Asia on this trip thinking about the economy, when I sat down for a round of interviews. Not one of them asked me about Asia. Not one of them asked me about the economy. I was asked several times about had I read Sarah Palin's book. (Laughter.) True. But it's an indication of how our political debate doesn't match up with what we need to do and where we need to go," - president Obama, calling us out.

A time-waster site: boozecats.com

A site with photos of people drinking, with their drinks photoshopped out and replaced with cats.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it "genius," but it's something....

18 degrees outside, 8 mph winds steady, 35 mph wind gusts. I think my bottle of pop flash froze between the car and the building door.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am reading coverage of the Saints game this morning and kind of feeling bad for the Redskins.

Ugh, Connie. That sounds terrible.

We're supposed to get a high of 11 degrees on Wednesday, but I don't know if wind is supposed to come with.
