I should assign the opening riff of "Vampires Will Never Hurt You" to Cass, but I'd never hear it.
I've called you! Once or twice, surely?
Just make it your text tone and it'll be partially mine. Of course then we'll both be checking our phones when it goes off. But it is a really good text tone.
If anyone else uses any TV stuff for their phones, I will think it's me.
For all of the tv themes I've considered, I've stuck with music and Ocean's 11 for my main ringtone.
I need to update my personalized tones. I used to amuse myself a lot with them. I also need one for parents that is loud and somehow says, "Answer me!"
Let's assume all single dads are potential pedophiles! This is so depressing.
People never learn, either. The writer of the advice in question says instead of a sleepover, suggest a "late-over," where your daughter only stays until bedtime and then you pick her up. Um, a) Sandusky's wife was apparently home when a lot of the abuse took place, and the boys weren't sleeping over in the first place, and b) boys get abused, too.
I've seen similar sorts of thinking around allowing men to volunteer in church nurseries. It makes me sad.
Timelies all!
Quiet weekend here. Gonna go to the library and bring my car to Jiffy Lube. Otherwise, DVDs, computer and DVR time.
Jesus, that's really sad.
Nora, I love that Taz is king cat!! That was so cute!
I am off to GET MY TAT!!!! It's gonna hurt like a bitch.
There was a thing in io9 the other day about lost films--they mentioned Warhol's flim.
Bingo! That's where I got the idea. My brain is awful this week.
I tossed my tablet across the room and onto the floor in my last meeting. I'm so goddamned lucky that I only seem to have a 3mm scratch on the screen. Motherfucker.
Oh hey Nora, are you aware of Julie Klausner? She's hilarious, and on her podcast sometimes talks about cat awards, so I want to send her the clip, so (a) is that OK, and (b) do you want to do it yourself?
A Facebook friend of mine posted this exchange she had with her 5 year old:
ME: Frances, do you like any vegetables besides carrots? Have you had any vegetables at school, maybe, that you like?
FRANCES: Hmmm... Vegetables besides carrots that I like... Well, there's carrots... And I also like carrots... Oh! I almost forgot: carrots!
I can't think of a non-crazy way to explain to her why I find this so hysterical. But clearly, Frances likes carrots.
Aw, Frances, you don't even know how awesome you are.
