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

You should visit that crazy hotel, the Madonna Inn--megan walker has been there, and it looks awesome.

I do not see DFW on that itinerary.
My new bosses just complemented my work. And today when something on the computer was not working right, no one blamed me. Sadly that is enough to make me teary.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, YES the Madonna Inn. An improv friend and I stopped there on a road trip down to the southern CA RenFaire (sadly, we didn't stay overnight, just wandered around the lobby and grounds goggling at everything), and it was gloriously insane. Not to be missed, in the most deliciously whackdoodle way.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The Madonna Inn makes the best banana cream pie in the world.

Have a great time in London, shrift! And have a great time in CA, Tom!
I just got off the phone with UPS and the site I ordered clothes from a few weeks ago. Turns out UPS delivered the clothes at 5:30 last Wednesday, said that they buzzed my apartment and got no answer so they decided to leave the package in the hallway in front of my apartment door. I know that I was home at that time, so I say that they didn't do the first thing, and should have known better than to do the second thing--there's a rental office in the building right next to mine that is open until 6:00, and all they have to do is take the package there instead.
So, the package is nowhere to be found, most likely with one of my neighbors who helped themselves to the package, and I am furious with UPS, who had no excuse, just said that since it was "basic delivery," their driver didn't have to take it to the manager's office. Grrr.
The vendor's customer service guy, otoh, was amazingly understanding and sweet, added a secondary option on my standing address line that says "or rental office," reported the package as lost/stolen, and changed the size of my swimsuit to the smaller size I should have ordered instead in the reorder. Hopefully, I'll get my clothes in a few weeks and they will be at the manager's office instead of the hallway this time.
