LA is absurdly wet and grey. I'm calling it El Nino weather, I don't care what they say.
Xmas shopping is almost done, but the house is still a wreck. 4 days until my sister arrives, which gives me 4 days to clean it up and make it festive-looking.
I have been on a vague endorphin rush since my stretch class at 10 am today. Is that normal?
women who suddenly turn into idiots who must be protected by a man make you throw things.
Good call, good call. This is why I avoid Heinlen.
Thanks for the recs! My mama sent me a kindle and I've been buying many books.
I got Dracula and The Secret Garden for free. I haven't read them in yonks, and have no idea where they have gone.
Allyson! I should call you sometime this week! But not tonight or Monday night. After that is golden. If I don't start a game of phone-tag, harass me via email until I do. I keep remembering that I have a funny thing to tell you and then I forget it for months and then I remember "Shit, I should call Allyson and tell her the funny thing."
Also I am distributing copies of Sam for Xmas so yay. Children of my acquaintance who do not love it will be disowned.
On which note I need to sleep because I have to be in DC early tomorrow, bleh.
I have a box o' stuff for strega. I am awesome at picking up things that make me think of folks. I am bad at mailing them.
I have a vague recollection of reading some early (maybe 19th century) sci-fi novel about a post-apocalyptic future with a title something like The Night World, but all Google turns up by that name is a recent series of Twilight-esque supernatural books by L. J. Smith.
ETA: Aha! It was The Night Land by William Hope Hodgson.

I have heard of this. Never experienced it, but have heard of it. And experienced total jealousy.
That said, I may hit up a stretchy light yoga from OnDemand just to see if I can unkink myself.
I am skipping to end the end to report that my Wegman's had "Discontinued" signs on the OB tampons, and only had 5 boxes of regular left, and no others. I bought the 5 boxes. The local Walmart no longer has shelf space marked out for them.
The person at the end of this thread claims to have talked to OB and heard it's a supply line thing. [link]
I hope that's the case as it's better than a phase-out.
Ugh. Up and I guess ready to go.
me too. Guess who was up until 3:20? I have turned off all the alarms, we will see how long he sleeps.
