Daily post

Sleep: 1:30am to 6:30am (this not-sleeping thing is killing me!)

Daily BPAL: STICKY PILLOWCASE
Description: Smushed candy corn, rock candy dust, marshmallow gunk, strawberry goo, spun blue sugar, globs of salt water taffy, and lint.
In bottle: Candy! I can smell candy corn, rock candy, and salt water taffy in particular.
On me: Slightly less sickeningly sweet -- candy corn, primarily, with an undertone of salt water taffy. Still probably one for the swap pile.

Daily Tarot: Knight of Swords: A dashing, brave young man. Though he may be domineering, he has a clean heart and is full of courage. The card may also mean the coming or going of misfortune.

Restroom wisdom

I have had yet again evidence that we have some pretty cool graffiti-ists here at LSU. The following quote from Neil Gaiman was scrawled on the bathroom stall door: "Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly."

This is almost as cool as the time I found "Bad Wolf" scrawled inside the elevator.

I love the first listing on the CDC's WONDER page under "Chronic Conditions". Yeah, I guess death is a rather chronic condition after all :)

What's with the father theme last night? Just got around to watching House and NCIS and both dealt with the main characters' estranged fathers.

( spoilers )

Anyway, I am very pleased with this week's tv offerings so far :)
