There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

oh, I quoted that yesterday and just assumed everyone had already heard it. it is 8000 kinds of awesome and I am going to get so busted singing it at some point.

It's way catchy, but lords I get twitchy listening to songs about how women are just horrible for not being with the narrator.

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

I have a tennis/formal wear kink I just can't explain. Thanks for that link, sumi. I had no idea I had those feelings for Stosur.

Because books.

I'm driving away from this house as an inhabitant for the last time today. New house ahoy! Meep.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The clean version of "Fuck You" is "Forget You".

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm driving away from this house as an inhabitant for the last time today. New house ahoy! Meep.

WHOOO HOOO,

and meep.

Have a good, safe drive, Hon, and enjoy New House!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Much health-ma to Perkins and Drew. I'm glad they caught that early, Perkins. I hope they figure out what the deal is, ND.

My biggest written tic is "Anyway..." as a transition or to bring a subject to a close. I have to watch out that I don't use it a bunch of times in the same piece of writing (generally email). I suspect I do it verbally as well, but I haven't paid close enought attention to know for sure.

I also tend to use "wicked" in the New England sense of the word.

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

It's way catchy, but lords I get twitchy listening to songs about how women are just horrible for not being with the narrator.

It really seems to me like just the one woman is terrible. And the guy she's with. He's singing it to both of them. It would be hard to write anything if we couldn't criticize one person without it being extrapolated to the entire gender.

Here's the Cee-Lo song I'm in love with and not only because my friend Rob wrote it and is now getting a decade-and-a-half's worth of "overnight" success. What Part of Forever.

Rob is doing the whistling. When Cee-Lo played it on Leno I cried hearing the whistling.
