There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus.

I went to the doctor yesterday and paid $20 to be told I have a virus. At least I got a prescription for some kick ass cough medicine. This stuff is crazy strong. I took a teaspoonfull and went out to read for a bit on the couch. Twenty minutes later I realized I'd read the same sentence four or five times and I was starting to sway. It took everything I had to actually move my body to the bedroom instead of flopping over on the couch. I slept, motionless, for three solid hours. Clunk.

Today I'm working half a day, one to get some stuff done for my office mate, and two to check my email. Sad, isn't it? I did a bit of email duty last night on [livejournal.com profile] 0verdrive's laptop, but between the debate and the failing battery, I only got to a few emails.

Speaking of the debate...um, our healthcare system is the envy of the world? Pardon me? And who else wanted to smack the shit out of that smirking monkey face when he said the quote about him not being concerned about bin Laden must've been "kind of one of those exaggerations?" Choke.

This is nice:

Which Fantasy/SciFi Character Are You?


I might feel like shit today, but I have good hair and look smashing in a metal bikini.

"I might feel like shit today, but I have good hair and look smashing in a metal bikini."

Is that a you quote or a she quote? Either way: Heehee!

That's a me quote. Good to know I can be funny even when I'm hopped up on cold meds. =)

Great quote. Better image. :)

I hope you feel better soon! I'll think some healthy thoughts for you.

Thank you. I appreciate them.

I would LOVE to see you in a metal bikini.

LOL! I've always considered making a bellydance costume based on the outfit from that scene...

[identity profile] adammaker.livejournal.com 2004-10-14 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Please do make such a costume.

umm, wow.

I second the request

[identity profile] redheadfae.livejournal.com 2004-10-14 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
I have a photo somewhere of the original costume when it was in the Smithsonian.
It *would* be a fun one.

[identity profile] tessagratton.livejournal.com 2004-10-14 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
mmm. I'm still imagining it.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2004-10-14 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
If I ever make it, I'll be sure you get a photo. =)

[identity profile] jmstrange.livejournal.com 2004-10-14 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It certainly would be something worth getting a picture of.

You are huggable and lovable.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2004-10-14 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. Glad to hear it. =) Maybe not so huggable in the metal bikini, but out of it? Oh, you bet.

Woo! Even better mental image for the day :)

Hot Cha!

Here's hoping you have a great last RenFaire of the year tomorrow.

I doubt the national media will call him on it.
The man is made of fucking Teflon. Christ.

Shockingly, FOX did call him on it last night, mainly because the error was so heinous that they more or less had to.

Once again, Kerry should just walk over. Smack the hell outta Bush.
Look right at the camera and say, "You're welcome America, see you in January..."

Thanks for putting that in writing here. =)

I have a feeling that would actually help in the polls. The Bush supporters would be outraged, and the SS would likely shoot to kill, but imagine how the undecideds would react to someone finally saying that the Emperor has no clothes! Er, that the Prez has no brain!
