Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I took 2 benedryl last night and I slept like a baby, but it is 11 am and I still feel like I am functioning through Jello! I won't do that again, although I find the loopy feeling somewhat pleasant.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If we took Bobby Jindal's embarrassing performances into account for everything, nobody would want to breathe because he's been seen doing it...

Good point, amych. There was a brief moment, before he was governor IIRC, but not, I think, as far back as high school, when he seemed like a reasonable guy who I could hope would be good for the state. Oh well.

Sophia, you probably need the rest!

Come to think of it, I think maybe I have successfully fought off the cold/whatever that was threatening yesterday - breathing freely this morning. Hot and sour soup ftw! And I only had about a cup, I'll have the rest for lunch today (or maybe lunch and dinner depending on how hungry I am at lunch time...)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Charlie Rose seems to be talking about Obama's SOTU in the context of Hamilton and George Washington's last SOTU. So far, no one has said "Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree."

I should really listen to Hamilton so I know what you guts are talking about, huh?

Also, I have a vine, want a fig tree.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I wouldn't mind a fig ....

In SOTU news, this turned up in relation to something at work.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm at home since the little guy had his 6 month checkup. Wow, 6 months. How time flies...

Nothing like getting called on unprompted by your Director.....

(and my god, I really can't resist being a smartass. But it's all good!)

The meeting I thought I was running late for isn't until 11, whew!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I love greens which is helpful for when I am trying to eat better. What I really love is when I remember to make and pack a big mixed greens salad for lunch. 3 cups of greens, with tomato and dressing and I'm sitting at under 150 calories.
