Someone remind me to be a responsible grown-up type. Because one of the two limited-edition versions of the "Bela Lugosi's Dead" single I covet is currently on eBay at a very reasonable price. I don't need it. I know that. But oh! How I wants it. [link]
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

It is probably the pilot light. The first time it happened to me, I watched the plumber and asked questions, so I've been able to do it myself since. It does help to have a longer clicky fire thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, I love this cartoon. It's "physics" goodness.

Well, since the hot water provides my heat, hopefully I can get a plumber out pretty early tomorrow (though I have a 10AM doctor's appointment, so it may get pretty chilly in here before I can get someone!)

Yikes, meara. Stay warm!
Cass -- did you like the station?? I had so much fun listening to it today.
I got my room cleaned and organized, finished laundry and did dishes. I'd wanted to make chicken salad for tomorrow but ran out of time. Went to a lovely Lessons & Carols service at my sister's church (they have an awesome choir that she and her partner and my niece are all in), and then we all + my mom and a few friends went out to dinner after. Nice!

Buffistas, please remind me to buy small presents next year. I have my largest suitcase and a hockey bag sized duffel packed full of gifts for my family. With a week's worth of clothes for me tucked in here and there.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I just linked her to Derailing for Dummies.
Awesome.
So it seems Kim Jong Il has died.
Yeah, I just saw that on BBC. [link]

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

I really did until I tried to go completely wild and make a new station that I cared about deeply. My concept of "My Chem" turned into 90's Coffee House and basically it ended in tears. Mine.
I felt like a Rules Girl because it was just not going where I thought it should.

Ha! Yeah, it can happen that way. That's why I'm so pleased with my KLF radio -- it's definitely the best station I've ever ended up with. I mean, it's 95% love; so unusual!
