    The “What did you do today?” thread

    ---------- I discovered today while cleaning a client's apartment that chocolate easter eggs will actually TURN TO DUST if left alone long enough. I dusted their remains into the trash. Was a bit unnerving. ------------

    What made you roll your eyes today thread?

    -------------- Hah. I have been doing my best to manifest something below 80 (daytime). Tell the reptiles to trade houses with me. I'll take cold any day, any time, all the time... -------------

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    --------------- Always loved science, but I had some kick-butt teachers in high school who really made it fun to learn. Biology, chemistry, physics all great stuff...and yes, you may actually need it in your post-academic life. At the very least, it's good to have a well-rounded concept of what...

    When you need to rant...

    Slow waaaaaaay down and then laugh at them when they finally get an opening and zoom past. Morons deserve to be tortured. -----------------

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    ------------ Had to go watch the video for Gangnam Style again today after Sam Neill tweeted recently that he thinks he has it down. (He won't post a video to prove it, regrettably...I'd pay to see that...) So now the song won't stop playing in my brain. ------------

    What TV shows are you currently watching?

    Opener was good (can be watched on CBS online free) but this past week's ep was the strongest character-development ep they've done in a long long time. Great stuff! Hey Animal's Bunny. YES watch the Doctor! But start either with the classic series (most people like Tom Baker; I came in during...

    A Nest Divided: A Sam the Eagle Story

    ------------ I can absolutely picture a houseful of Muppets having a vicious betting pool over 'Jeopardy'. (Why have we not yet had an all-Muppet edition? Someone call Alex Trebek and Bland & Blander! Discrimination!) Very sweet of Hillary to help Robin. We need more patient educators! And I'm...

    People Who've Remade Their Own Work

    --------------- "Evil Dead II" is basically a remake with a better budget (and some new, clever gags) of the original, by the same crowd as the first (Raimi, Tapert, Campbell, etc). I don't mind stuff like that. I didn't see the original "Frankenweenie" but the new version looks wonderful, best...

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    Not a bad idea. She does use a sippy cup but the other things would be helpful. Lots of good medical supply places in Retirement City here; will pass that along. Thank you! I just need to think of ways to keep her mind engaged. Having never lost a partner that way I can sympathize, but not...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    ------------ **** at this whole post! Breakin' it down: Grinned at Clifford shamelessly not only NOT letting go of Tricia, but inviting Mabel to take his other side. Whadda flirt. Interesting that he noticed/recognized Piggy's awards outfit from more than one year back, apparently; and good...

    WOO-hoo!

    ----------- I do believe that's the most delicate use of the double entendre I've ever seen. ;) Twice! :) Very sweet, VERY sexy, and oh, wouldn't we all like a partner as attentive as that? A Jacuzzi tub, a glass of wine, and thou...has a nice ring to it. *adding "must nuzzle in hot tub" to...
