Next time you get to one of their concerts, tell 'em they owe you a toaster.

That would be tonight. And it was amazing.

Hee! But it really is an amazing album.

AAauaugh I have to wait until April!

Talking about finding presents for people: I love doing that. I love shopping for people. I especially love taking people on thrift store excursions and helping them find things.

So far I have the BIG present for my Mom, a bunch of stuff for Pete (who is simple to shop for, because he gives me a list), and some stuff for friends. Still no clue what to get Dad or some of my other friends. Oh, and because I'm precisely that sort of Fairy Gothmother, I'm giving Lily a Monster High Draculaura doll.

Lurked for about 50 posts and then skipped ca 100. Cross-posted from Bitches:

I lurked a bit today. But my memory is crappy so suffice it to say ~ma to those with health problems, life problems, home problems, etc. I hope things get on an even keel for everyone soon.

I spent my day going to a Victorian event at the LA Arboretum. I was a bit underwhelmed by the Victorian stuff, but happy to get to go into buildings that only get opened twice a year.

I spent my early evening tagging and uploading the last couple weeks' worth of pictures including todays pics from the Arboretum. [link]

THEN I spent the last hour or so paying for an upgrade to 1Password because my address seems to have been one of those compromised in the Anonymous leak from Gawker.com And then I went on to change passwords for about 6 of my major sites. Not that they used the same password as anything I would have used on the Gawker family of sites but because my ignorance of what is and what isn't possible in the hacking world has me probably overdoing it. I currently have a hate-on for 4chan.

The fact that Kroger no longer chas a spot on the shelves for OB, and they are back-ordered at KY.com (which is where the OB site send you to purchase online) is what makes me worried.

I tried some ancient tampax yesterday; I hate 'em.

Maybe 4chan is responsible for the OB shortage.

We are under a wind advisory. It was windy enough in the night to wake me up. High of 33, wind chill of 5. But no snow.

High of 33 if we're lucky, and low of 12-17. I am fretting about my plants. Mr Peabody keeps looking for the door into summer. He barks to go out, then steps outside and immediately does a tight u-turn back into the house. Half an hour later, he tries again.

We had some snow flurries this a.m.

And the dog puked up her breakfast after doing well for a few days, so I am waiting for a call back from the vet to figure out what to do next.

I'm happy to send Lil-lets to anyone who wants to give them a go - I think they're relatively similar to O.B.

8 degrees and falling.

I have to drag myself to the store in the next day or so. I'm curious to scope out the Chicago situation, even though I can't stand them myself.

Nah. I'm not a concertgoer myself. I value too highly the volume control.

Ear plugs!

I never go anywhere without them.

It's -2 here. I put a little fleece coat on Cody the Wonder Dog but as soon as I open the door he looks at me like, "Are you fucking kidding me?" I have to pick him up and put him on the shoveled spot on the grass. We got over a foot of snow this weekend. It's going to be a long winter for this little guy.
