Ah, kittens. They are insane with energy, aren't they?

Arthur and Victor are excellent names.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

A local Apache medicine man, Cranston Hoffman also confirmed the power of the site, with a very similar appraisal. He declared: “Here is where the Snake People live!”.

I like to think this means: "If you locate your pretentious mix of arrogance and co-opting of native rituals here, snakes will bite you."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ooh, right, the makeup thing. I'm pretty happy with the smashbox set, although I may still buy the eyeshadow kit alone to be more portable, and I don't really love the brushes, so if I end up serious about this, I'll buy better brushes. What do you guys do to clean your brushes?

I am well and truly pleased with the Urban Decay eyeliner, though. It lasted through the suicide prevention clinic and through an unexpected performance that evening. Both of which I cried during.

My big issue now is do I take the whole kit with me on the train or not? I am trying to reduce my baggage, I think.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Cleaning woman just came in to ask (very politely and in much nicer words) if I could clean all the crap off my desk so she could clean it. Jess FAIL!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No fail! You can just tell her not to clean it if you don't want to deal with the crap. This is your call.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ky. Man Forced To Eat Own Beard

A central Kentucky man said he's waiting for justice to be served after two men shaved his beard, then made him eat it.

Harvey Westmoreland and his brother got into a fight with James Hill and Troy Holt in May.

The dispute was over a tractor Westmoreland was trying to sell to one of the men.

Westmoreland said the men felt like they were being ripped off and that's when the fight started.

"Troy offered to buy it from me for $250 dollars. I paid twenty bucks for it. He thought I was trying to cheat him," Westmoreland told WLEX-TV.

"One thing led to another, and before I knew it, there were knives and guns and everything just went haywire."

Oh it needs cleaning - there are whole warrens of dust bunnies lurking under the piles of paper.

Damn You, Auto Correct

The perils of texting with an iPhone....

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

Auto correct drives me insane sometimes. I don't have an iPhone, just a pseudo-smartphone HTC thing I picked up in China, but I have sent some truly bizarre things to Twitter because of it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, then you can just scoop the piles of paper into a box for later perusal. Just don't forget the perusal later.
