You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

And what's with all the carrots?

Due to head cold and outside cold, I'm sitting under a blanket streaming all of Buffy on Hulu Plus.

This was K yesterday via Netflix. Except she fell asleep during Passion and woke up in time for Go Fish.

Lots of ~ma to Buffistas and their pets.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oooh! That reminds me of a joke! (As a disclaimer, I have absolutely nothing against hipsters as many of my friends are hipsters who turn me on to awesome stuff!)

How many hipsters does it take to change a lightbulb?

It's this really cool number...you've probably never heard of it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Except she fell asleep during Passion and woke up in time for Go Fish.

That's got to be discombobulating.

Compassionately intolerant

I love the hipster joke, DJ. I can totally hear that line coming out of the mouth of a particularly hipper than thou hipster friend of mine.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh.

aurelia, it sounds like the party is for you to see the office give your father a gift, right? So yeah, you don't bring anything, but do dress up work-style.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Wow, today is stupid.

and difficult to understand the unforgiving nature of the scoobies in season 3.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, in happy kid non-stupid day news: My Monday back after a break, and before yet another break, i.e. doomed to failure day?

Last year I had a kiddo who, if he stayed in the basic vicinity of his chair for the fifteen minutes of music lesson, we considered it a victory.

Today, coming back from break, he totally learned to read music on the grand staff, and was looking at the notes and calling out the letter names and playing the right note on the piano. And when I was teaching it, he was totally giving me verbal feedback about what he understood and didn't understand.

And then during "free time" when they can do whatever they want on the instruments, and usually spend that time hitting the sound effects bank and shooting each other with their fingers, he opted to keep practicing his song. Melt my heart, 6-year-old!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I have horrible tasks to complete and no energy. Someone light a fire under my ass!
