I have got this idea for doing some Proust cat macros.

After receiving this blast of inspiration, I went in search of "cat with cookie," and found this article, which made me 1) want a new user icon 2) hungry 3) die of Teh Cute.

Can you think of some great literary LOLs? I am imagining, "I had a madeleine - but I eated it."

It is 5 PM and I am still at work. I am making double time, but, still. I am tired. It has been a long day and I am ready for it to be over.

This is funny if you're at work with me now (as opposed to the LOLYamory pictures, which are funny on their own):
So there's this thing you can do that brings down the website, and is basically normal behavior? HA HA HAH! (It's funny because it's true.)

Also this:
So there's a table that shows you 100 things? And if you have over 100 and try to add a new one you get an error? But if you delete one so there's more room, it pulls item 0 out of the database so you still really have 100 still because the DB doesn't limit how many were saved to it in the first place? (Really, this is total comedy.)

And:
Shouted out: PCP looks good.
Response: That's TCPIP, you idiot! PCP is drugs!

Uh, in other news, people are remembering again that we've got an idiot in the White House, the question being how did they ever forget, but 911 didn't change MY opinion of him. From the NYT: "But this economic crisis has been going on for months, and all the president could come up with sounded as if it had been composed for a Rotary Club and then delivered by a guy who had never read it before. “One thing is certain that Congress will do is waste some of your money,” he said. “So I’ve challenged members of Congress to cut the number of cost of earmarks in half.”

"Besides being incoherent, this is a perfect sign of an utterly phony speech. Earmarks are one of those easy-to-attack Congressional weaknesses, and in a perfect world, they would not exist. But they cost approximately two cents in the grand budgetary scheme of things. Saying you’re going to fix the economy or balance the budget by cutting out earmarks is like saying you’re going to end global warming by banning bathroom nightlights."

Anyway, she goes on to just rip him a new one. I'm not sure who this Gail Collins is, but I think I might like her.

Iz making warm lapz 4 me.

Hmm, looks like my phone post saying "The Internets R Broken" never made it online yesterday. I'll resend it, why not (it may even show up before I finish writing this). This article captures the depth of my suffering: Bootcamp for breaking internet addiction! (But really, it was frustrating because we were supposed to book some vacations and buy Christmas presents, and I really didn't want to do that over the internet connection I can get on my phone.)

At any rate, I never left the house yesterday, really (it was just too cold) and we never got an internet connection going, thus leaving us forced to read books (I finished Dead Until Dawn, thanks to irrationalrobot for a book good enough to orient my weekend around), play games (Hunters and Gatherers, shadowdaddy continued his winning streak), and cook (pleased to say shadowdaddy made his - or rather the New York Times' - meatballs, perfect for feeding my uncle when he arrives Tuesday night).

I got a kick out of the link to the Lolinator in the Metro today. Here's my Saturday blog entry:( Read more... )
I suspect once this gets around LJ he'll be needing cohosting to handle the load ...

So: it was lamb with olive oil/vinager/herbs, panfried, side of spinach with garlic and side of fresh rotelli with fresh pesto. Thanks for all of the suggestions, dinner was great! And Hoof and Mouth disease is my friend, not that it's doing the farmers any good, but hey, I'm doing my bit to drive up demand for British lamb!

Afterwards we played a quick round of Chrononauts 1776, and like the losers we are, we're reading things like this: "And Ceiling Cat sayed, Yo, Beholdt, the earths, I has it, and I has not eated it" and laughing our heads off. I need a bit of a break from The Devil in Amber anyway, but this is low humor! Not that it doesn't inspire me to write, mind you ....

I can has nap now?

Cat photos welcome.

Also need photo for "I'm in the canteen, stealing your cereal," to be posted at work in response to the snark, "If you'd told me you were so hungry you needed to steal out of my unopened box of Crispy Flakes, I would have bought you your own damned bos."
