Is this where I point out this is the Space Iliad, not the Space Odyssey, because I'm an asshole?
I have nothing snarky to say about this video because I'm super in love with Commander Hadfield even though he's Canadian. He tweeted Starfleet! From space! *heart*
I had a good year, did some work I'm proud of, learned some new skills, got a dog, no health or family problems, just a nice year plugging along on my career and enjoying living in a beautiful place. I'd call it a solid Bruce Campbell.
The world is ending on Friday and you'll never have to see any of us ever again! CELEBRATE!
I thought they were all awesome, particularly the White Tree of Gondor in white ink. But then I have a Klingon tattoo that I love wholeheartedly so I'm probably not the best judge. Of anything.
Why does the lion look so unhappy?
I had to go rescue a sick sea turtle last night, and spent several hours in the emergency vet clinic, but it died overnight. (Awwww.) And they called and said, hey, do you want the carcass? (for a necropsy, not to hang on the wall or anything) So I finally found some freezer space for it, and went to pick it up and they said "oh by the way, our freezer wasn't actually working so it's a little smelly". So then I got to put a whiffy dead sea turtle in my brand new car and guess what my car smells like now. (Hint: not vanilla like it used to). But on the up side, I got a big grant application in so we can maybe continue paying me next year, which would be fantastic. Also, it's my Friday, hooray!
The thought of a little shivery Chihuahua getting a warm sweater for Christmas is orders of magnitude better than Ryan Gosling getting a new sweater. Two thumbs up for your Secret Santa gift!
That baby elephant is the cutest thing ever but they really need to stop giving it so much sugar. Slow down, baby elephant!
I don't even know what "chat" yall are talking about because I saw a photo of half-naked Daniel Craig and just stopped there. I'm still there, in fact.
Do I have to cook for these people, or can I request that they each bring a dish so I don't have to do anything? Joss Felicia Day Gene Kelly (can we invite dead people? we can, right?) Daniel Craig the Queen's Corgis and Jamie Oliver, if he's cooking
Tarantino fanfic: would he be team Buffy+Angel 4eva or team Spuffy?
No,arguing with a chair like a crazy person is why it's fair to call him senile.
I finally got my new car registered, which is great because it means I'm not driving it around illegally anymore. (Like I'd get a brand new car and be all "nope, gonna keep driving the 20 year old hoopty", which I couldn't anyway because it's broken). Then I got to have a very positive meeting about a project to keep trash out of the bay here, and we got funding for it and everyone is super happy! And then of course we got the good president and there's a new Bond movie out soon, so, hoorays all around!
When we run out of baby animals, we can laugh at the funny hats from the Melbourne Cup. http://au.lifestyle.yahoo.com/fashion/galleries/photo/-/15310280/melbourne-cup-hats-that-turned-heads/15310753/
Everyone knows that the right way to light a bonfire is to douse it with a few hundred gallons of jet fuel. (FightinTexasAggieClassofWayTooDamnLongAgoA-Whoop!etc.) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/2007-SBF.jpg/170px-2007-SBF.jpg
I'm set for an awesome weekend of work at home, and also I'm going to a two-year-old's birthday party later today. http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lscakwDkhP1qi7deco1_400.gif
Deal. I'll put on my best eyepatch and cork.
