Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My cat and I seem to be producing more than normal amounts of static electricity. She just rubbed against me, and then went to lick me, and we both got shocked from the lick!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Today is my first day off in two weeks, so I'm being all self-indulgent. I woke up at my usual 5 a.m., but then loafed in bed until 6:30. Just finished a two-egg omelet with ham, cheddar, and green onions, plus pancakes with peanut butter and honey. Haven't done that in a very long time.

I'm soooo tempted to go back to bed and sleep the day away, but at some point I need to do laundry and a grocery run.

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

Oops. They lost a patient.

I read that the wrong way at first. Gave me flashbacks.

She just rubbed against me, and then went to lick me, and we both got shocked from the lick!

dang, Sophia. I'll bet the cat was surprised.

My cat and I are the only ones awake here. She's keeping me company while I attempt to get a bit of grading done. The plan is to go see snow later, so I should do a bit of work now. Shame I can't make a pot of coffee first, but it would wake up Isaac.

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

Timelies all!

Snow stopped late yesterday afternoon. Now we need to excavate our cars. Also, the power went out at 7:30 last night and came back on around 1 am. We went to bed early since there was little else to do in a dark, cold house.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My cat and I seem to be producing more than normal amounts of static electricity.

Us too! It's weird. Their fur crackles with tiny sparks, and they glare at me.

The cat jumped about 2 feet into the air! It shocked her in more ways than one!

Perkins linked to some China Beach vids on livejournal, and now I am filled with complete and utter longing for that show. I wish it was available legally, mostly because I am crap and finding and downloading things. Once so much became available either through itunes or online with advertisements I stopped downloading and things seem to have changed a lot. (Back in the Buffy days, I downloaded Tuesday morning and watched on my lunch hour, so I was pretty good at it.

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

Misplaced a patient. Big semantic distinction.

Hard time getting an IV. Had two nurses working on me at once, which is creepy. Where to look? But it beats waiting for the doctor to go into my jugular. Now I have a litre of fluids going in through my finger. I covet normal veins.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

An EMT friend of mine once admiringly took my hand gently in his, and told me it would be his pleasure to run an IV for me, any time I wanted.

Now tagless for your comfort.

ita, I wish your veins would cooperate. I feel so badly for you when they have to do this.

Superbowl Sunday. DH didn't like the boneless ribs I got to do pulled pork and insisted on pork shoulder--so he's out at the store now.

Because books.

No one can ever put an IV in me, which I don't understand. I'm very fair and you can see all these blue veins *right there*! I don't get it. I hate it when they have to put it in the back of my hand, too. ::shudders::

Sorry about the ER trip, ita. And the lack of plow, Sparky. My parents are SW of Philly and they got hammered, too.
