I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

He is presenting as tired, but slept a full night last night and did nothing out of teh ordinary today.

Maybe I'm having a growth spurt.

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

Growth spurts make you tired? I had a big growth spurt when I was around 12 or 13. I didn't notice anything besides a little clumsiness and it seemed like I never had clothes that fit.

eta: Come to think of it, I did have a homeroom teacher in 9th grade who told my mom I always appeared tired. At the time I strongly disagreed with her.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

A Pew Research Quiz:

I got the Iran-Israel border one wrong (seriously, my lack of knowledge about geography is huge and legendary), and the troops in Afghanistan one wrong.

This one amused me:

Do you happen to know who Glenn Beck is?

only because I felt that the correct answer wasn't an option (the motherfucking devil).

I couldn't picture Iran in relation to Israel in my head, but I figured if they bordered, I would have heard about it. (i.e. it would be mentioned in articles about the two countries.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It looks like there's a Burn Notice marathon on tomorrow. Should I watch it?

11 of 12. I whiffed the Afghanistan one. I'm a little disturbed that overall men scored well higher than women (on every question except health expenditures. Weird.

I am so pleased with myself that I have things ready to submit my dependent care reimburseable tomorrow to empty out my account.

I got new glasses today to cash out some of my FSA. Not expensive enough! I was all "isn't there a premium coating you can put on those mofos? Lasers? Nothing?" Feh. Need to make another drugstore.com order tonight I guess. Anyone want some Advil?

I will, then! I'm not sure why I've never watched it before -- it does seem like something I'd like...
