So, I did not end up trying to get drunk last night, but only because my internet went down and I couldn't get the results, which was plenty frustrating on its own. I know that mathematically Obama will almost certainly keep his lead, but I'm much less confident that Hillary won't find a way to steal the nomination somehow, through superdelegates ( Read more... )

I've been really stressed the last couple days over the primaries tonight. The polls have not been trending well. By about 5:00 tonight, I'd finally read enough positive articles to start feeling a bit better about things. Then Mary comes up and asks me if her sweater looks good because she has a date tonight.

I worked with Mary today, which is pretty rare since she went down to children's and only happens on the occasional Saturday. Towards the end of the day, another woman, who only works Saturdays, came up and commented that I never smile but I was smiling a lot today.

Started out the New Year with a rather nasty cold that announced itself just before midnight with that annoying tickle in the throat that tells a person who is otherwise feeling fine that he's about to get sick and there's not a damn thing he can do about it ( Read more... )

So, Peter Jackson is going to make a Hobbit movie.

I can't wait to see how he'll rape, err, "adapt", the source material this time. I predict that Beorn will be evil and the Dwarves will surf down the Lonely Mountain on shields firing semi-automatic crossbows.

God, I hate that man so much.

My last two weeks ( Read more... )

He pussied out. I swear, these people are utterly hopeless.
