"This is from the early 80's British tv show "The Young Ones", one of the most amazing comedies produced by the BBC in it's day. It had everything: punk rockers, anarchists, talking rodents, oil deposits in the basement, Fat Dracula, hippies, explosions, and of course....Motorhead!"

Went to bed at 8pm last night after the husband made me a lovely chicken caesar salad dinner. Slept straight til 630am. I feel wonderfully human again; almost forgot what this was like. Enjoying it immensely :)
Been sucking at my chem math all weekend so I'm happy to have a teensy antidote in getting 10 out of 10 right on the temperature conversion quiz that was due tonight.
Give a Teh Ogre a problem and he will solve it! Problem= Wife is LIT? He must think,"I know, calm her down! Booze, food, movie!" I took him up on the first and second, asked for a rain check for the movie. I just want my bed now.
It was fun, and not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. In fact, it was kind of easy (a testament to the skills of our architect, I suspect).

"Today we’re bringing you a roundup of some of the great Science Fiction, Fantasy and Dystopian classics available on the web. And what better way to get started than with Aldous Huxley reading a dramatized recording of his 1932 novel, Brave New World. The reading aired on the CBS Radio Workshop in 1956. You can listen to Part 1 here and Part 2 here."

"WHY DID WE MAKE THIS? To be blunt: Science, technology, and education are important to us. But we live in a world where the little news we hear of schools, research, and the arts is when they're laying their heads on the chopping block. We live in a world where celebrity and "reality" entertainment is winning the war for our attention. Though this may just seem like it's playing off a funny trope, we do need superheroes in our world. Super men, women (and puppets), like those actualized by PBS, who inspire young generations to be scientists, teachers, and artists. But those heroes will not appear unless we create them."

"Inspired by the beauty he feels is inherent in modern technology, Oregon-based photographer Mark Crummet has created a series of surreal landscapes by placing miniature figurines among computer parts. He highlights this beauty in a photo series called ‘Ghosts in the Machine’."

Kid bro called back and we got to talk for like an hour. He transitions his company command on Friday and flies home on the 22nd. MY BROTHER'S COMING HOME IN A FEW WEEKS! *runs around screaming*
also he's the cutest kid ever. don't matter how old or war-seasoned or that he could probably strangle me to death with one hand, he still can't say "breakfast" and it's the most adorable thing in the world!

all y'all liking this post makes my day even brighter still. thanks!

I've got a brother I love and enjoy spending time with. :) Now I'm curious how he says breakfast. :D

ha. he's always had difficulty with hard consonant sound combinations, so he can't manage the K and F in a row. comes out like "breffast" but also with a random clicking sound to get the K in there somehow. crushingly cute.

The best part of this past weekend...aside from finally getting to meet Eivind IRL...was seeing my best friend truly, genuinely, beautifully happy. I am so thankful that her and Eivind found each other. They're two souls that were meant to be together, and it shows in every little way.
The greatest thing ever was meeting Eivind in SF right before he went to meet Kelli and just KNOWING that he was about to fall for her madly.

It might not be unusual for schoolchildren to write to the president or vice president. But one Wisconsin boy got an unexpectedly personal response from Vice President Joe Biden.

"Los Angeles-based student, Madeline Sharafian has created a delightful short film for her second-year film as part of her studies at CalArts. The beautiful film is about a clever and loving dog who takes care of his depressed and exhausted owner by making sure he eats well. The dog also helps him avoid kitchen accidents such as cutting his finger or leaving the fire turned on for too long. According to Sharafian, "I wanted to make something that focuses on how meaningful it is to make food for someone you love. My family's lives practically revolve around cooking for each other, so it's a theme that I'm deeply attached to. I hope you enjoy it!""
