Shit, I read books AND I fuck off on the internet, I'll just muddle through more of GoT than I would have in the first place.

Love you, Cris.

There may be a temporary disruption or two this evening before the actual switch as I get everything ready. Sorry about that.

Yeah it is still very much in play. The MPAA came out with an angry statement today as well:

That won't make it different from any other day, except that I don't tend to eat chips.

It will be different in that I can't come read words from my fav folks.

Not WHILE masturbating! You dirty minded folks.

B.O.B. is my buddy.

Well, here's the story.....

I STILL don't have enough time!

SOME idiots, namely me, thought that there was a 2 hr difference in time. When it is really only one.

Meaning of life?

Stupid people do as they believe?

Or are those maniacal people who set the time zones to blame?

What's a girl to do?

/me consults with B.O.B.

He tells me not to worry about any of this.
