Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Plus the resemblance to Giovanni Ribisi was unnerving

There is some of this, so I can see where it'd get you, but OMG, no, I still adore Moriarty on first intro. Totally.

The lastest piece of wisdom: it's easy to repair holes when you have an almost unlimited supply of silk in your legs.

This is what I've learned from the neat spider that lives near my car. Someone keeps taking the web down but it goes right back up. It's fascinating. (Note: Outside spiders get to live. Inside spiders only get to live up high, far away from me and the cats and only until I am bitten and then it's death.)

billytea, have you seen First Life with David Attenborough? It's actually more my thing than yours. It's evolution from the very, very beginning and not what's amazingly cool now but it does use the present enough that I think you'd be interested and I highly rec it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have not, but I'm very much looking forward to it. I'm interested in evolution; extinct life is just as fascinating as modern animals.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Man, my fictional prefs say some really bad things about me.

Ahahahaha. Right there with you.

It's really intriguing. Fossilized life forms so old that it's unsure if they are animal or plant. Or if there was even a distinction at the time.

I am only sorry I failed to record it in HD. I am hoping for a reair at some point. Or I'll buy it.

Attenborough has had a really cool life.

Well, yeah.

Because we share links.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

"Amy's" brand makes a frozen Macaroni And Cheeze (yes, a Z) that is not only vegan, but close enough to a real Kraft taste that it's added a comfort food I missed so very much back into my life.

I love that stuff. Tastes more like Stouffer's than like Kraft to me, though. I was ridiculously happy when I found the one store around here that carries it. (Wegman's! Wegman's is wonderful.) And Wegman's also carries the packages of Daiya, the cheese they use, so I use that for quesadillas.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Aims, I may have some old Barbie clothes, and I KNOW we have some old blow-up Barbie sized furniture to play house with. No dolls though, let me know if you want pics or what.

Awesome!! Thank you SO much!!! Shoot me an email about how much you want for them and how much shipping is when you get a chance. I know you're sooper busy.

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

Note: Outside spiders get to live. Inside spiders only get to live up high, far away from me and the cats and only until I am bitten and then it's death.

My inside policy is similar to yours, but I totally discriminate with outside spiders. Outside spiders get to live only if they orb spiders. I have a Kill.All.The.Widows! policy.

'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"

Eeek! I didn't know black widow spiders were actually present in MA. Can't be a whole lot of them, anyway. They were really easy to find in Baja.

You know what's the weirdest symptom of a widow bite? The skin around the bite SWEATS profusely, because one of the elements in the venom stimulates the local sweat glands.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes. I prefer not to think about spiders being that close to me.

My boss is out sick, so staff meeting is canceled, so I have nothing on my calendar until Wednesday. This should mean plenty of time to get stuff done, but I think really means plenty of time to screw around.
