A nap turned into a six hour sleep session. Not that I'm complaining, J. didn't need to wake me up -- it was pissing down freezing rain all day and there was no way I was going to the Dickens Festival in that mess. But now I'm up all night as a result.
I got some new pens that are just lovely. Spidery fine lines. In relation to that, clicky clicky for some fun.
I gotta get some Super Hero Squad toys for the niblings. Beyond that, the hell with holiday shopping. No, I am not sending cards this year. Nor am I embracing my inner curmudgeon. This year I am just going to send checks to various charities in other people's names. Why? Because fuck the economy, that's why.
I finally got around to watching the movie version of American Splendor. I liked it, J. thought it was boring. I think he was expecting something fantastical from the "based on the comic book" subtitle. Hell, Harvey Pekar is a superhero! He's...Complaint Man! He can complain about anything! And hell, I like anything that Paul "Pig Vomit" Giamatti is in.
He will always be Pig Vomit to me. Same way whenever I watch In Plain Sight I think of Mary as "movie wife". This is what listening to Howard Stern for years on end does to a person. Whatever, it ain't a bad thing.

Sometimes I think I might be the only person who likes turnips.
MORE FOR ME!
I also think I am the only person who dislikes mango.
MORE FOR YOU!

Happy National Buy Nothing Day!
(The Chinese takeout we're gonna get later doesn't count.)
If the economy wants stimulation, the zombies can buy it a Hitachi Magic Wand.

I have all these phone calls to make and I can't get rid of my hiccups. This will not go well, with me *gleep*ing at my broker every five seconds.
My cat Mungo is getting old. It's always hard to catch him (we never could rehabilitate him from feral) but tomorrow I have to get him to the vet so they can check his kidney function. He's been drinking much more often lately and has lost weight. He's not near the end yet, but I want to find out what's going on.
On the needles: blue-and-brown fingerless gloves. Next will be an evil Yoda hat for grundig666 crimmus.

if Fred Phelps wrote a book, that would be about it. No one needs to have access to his drivel.
When my sister was in high school, she got lip from the librarian for wanting to read the Valachi Papers. In my senior year, I got looked at funny for carrying around copies of Steal This Book and Drawing Down the Moon.
People will find a way to read what they want to read anyway. When J. was a lad he used to pedal his bike two neighborhoods away (crossing Queens Boulevard in the process) to buy porn and comic books. Now he still reads comic books, but we have a Playboy subscription and just glance at the girlies before getting into the articles. This month's interview with James Cameron is a bit dull but there's a fun story about snake hunting in the Everglades.

Oh cripes. i had a nightmare that Pete Wentz gave me a shitload of STDs. I woke up flailing and choking on some backwash and J. was all "whats wrong hon" and I was like "PETE WEEEEENTZ" and just...ew.
Where the hell did that come from? He's not even remotely near my List. He falls into the category of "vaguely pretty, but too annoying to think about".

Lady Gaga scares me because you can't imagine her sitting around on her day off wearing sweatpants and eating ice cream in bed. Whenever you see her, she's ON. It probably takes her six hours and a team of stylists to get her ass out the door and that is terrifying.
I don't think she's human. gynocide told me to stop watching V but I'm just waiting for Gaga to eat the guinea pig:
I wish they would hurry up and have Morena Baccarin (be still my heart loins, she is exquisite) eat the guinea pig already. It's bad enough that they don't talk in stereo (cutting out the vocal effect with no explanation is what killed the original series, dammit). I want my Visitors to be eating small pets.
