5:50 pm	Since I still can't get the Sluggy.com webmail to load, or it's down or defunct or whatever, just one last post to say that I am still, as always, reachable at af-ter-wards@gmail.com (without the hyphens, of course) James-kitten wants to tell you all "Mew!" and also "One of these days, when I attack the carpet, I'll win!"

10:46 am	The Joss Whedon is the boss of you meme If you see this, post your favorite Firefly quote in your own journal. "Jayne, your mouth is talking. You might want to look to that." "Okay, I can see you're not an idiot." "Wish I could say the same, Lawrence, but ... this is disappointing as hell."

12:51 pm	Dear God, If you happen to have any spare miracles lying around, could you please send me a naked James Spader of my very own? So I can stop watching -- *gag* -- David E. Kelly shows to get my Spader-licking fantasy fix? Also, so I can stop spamming my LJ with horny posts. Appreciate it! Love, Ellie (3 Comments |Comment on this)

10:51 am	Help? I seem to remember that somebody on my friends list had the complaint of certain words in their browser being underlined and an ad popping up when you put your mouse over the word. Who had this problem, and how did you fix it? Inquiring kittens want to know! (4 Comments |Comment on this)

Friday, July 22nd, 2005
7:21 pm	Ask me for “top five” lists of pretty much anything, and I will list you my top five of that thing or things. Then if you feel like it, put this in your LJ. Current Mood: yay, memes! (9 Comments |Comment on this)
6:47 pm	Well, I take back my crack about War of the Worlds, because I saw it last night and oh my god MIND. BLOWN. I've resumed playing Magic: The Gathering with Jon (the ex from high school*) after a five year hiatus (he's out of the Marines now) and man, is it a lot more fun these days. Because now I permit myself to swear. A lot. Also, I win almost every game. Hee! Taking him on a picnic this weekend, just for fun. I'm making the fried chicken recipe from Tender at the Bone and biscuits and brownies (with actual brand name baking chocolate, even!) and I bought strawberries and splurged on a wheel of Brie cheese. I worked overtime this week; I can afford it. Otherwise things are hot and busy and I'm really having a great summer. Who would have thought? * Also, re: the discussion in the last entry, Jessica Alba's boobs are very nice. But Thyla's are better. They would improve any movie, or elegant dinner party. Really, everyone should have a pair. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

6:42 pm	Is it just me, or are a lot of the movies coming out this summer singularly unoriginal? The Island: The Matrix, but with explosions. War of the Worlds: Independence Day, but with even more explosions. Must Love Dogs: You've Got Mail, but with even more internet. Stealth: Top Gun, but with an evil robot. Fantastic Four: X-Men, but with Jessica Alba's boobs. Bewitched: Every romantic comedy ever made, but with stupidity. You know what I'm in the mood to see right now, actually? Not Another Teen Movie. Damn you, grylliade. "There's a hole in the side of your house." Current Mood: everybody's a critic (8 Comments |Comment on this)

1:59 pm	Time to check another lifelong dream (seriously!) off my list -- I actually got to hear Paula Poundstone win her first game on Wait Wait - Don't Tell Me! Sweet. ^_^ Current Mood: bouncy (6 Comments |Comment on this)

8:56 am	The top of my time sheet summary says "T&A Pay Period." I suppose that's to be expected when you spent the whole week hoeing. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

8:25 pm	"Well, what [is your major]?" "English." "What for?" "Look ... if the thing you liked best to do in the world was read, and somebody offered to pay you room and board and give you a liberal-arts degree if you would just read for four years, wouldn't you do it?" "But what will you do after that?" "Go to graduate school and read some more." -- Pamela Dean, Tam Lin (3 Comments |Comment on this)

6:16 pm	I wish I could have posted this sooner, but ... enjoy! Many of you thought that Llefser had permanently departed from our LJ world, but when I realized that June 16th was approaching, I begged him to return just to give his annual greeting. And -- he agreed! So, via my LJ ... ( Llefser wishes everyone a ...  ) Current Mood: conscious of a stream (17 Comments |Comment on this)

5:50 pm	Heh, heh. "Openings." I am a LJ comment slut. I think most people know that. I could offer an analysis of why I'm a "comment slut" rather than a "comment whore," but that would involve invoking several pieces of BDSM erotica as references and nobody needs to know that I read that stuff. Anyway, I feel off-kilter if I don't get to post often and feel the love from everyone, but of late, there's simply jack shit to post about. The various openings I try just fall flat. For example: "It's been raining a lot here lately, and there's water standing in the corners of the cornfields, which isn't something you usually see. Our soybean field has quite the river running through it already, but I'm hoping for more so I don't have to go mark plants any time soon ... " Yeah, rain, blah, can it, Al Roker. "So, I'm counting corn rootworm eggs under the microscope, and it occurs to me: How did these get here? Do beetles have sex? How?" I doubt that anyone on my friends list would even know the answer to that. Because NO ONE CARES. "I'm on the last chapter of Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door, but I'm going to see how close I can get to 100% on my journal. The badges should be easy, but the recipes are going to be expensive, and I think I missed some of the tattles ..." Look, talking to the people on your friends list -- Lord Geeks, Lamb of Geeks, Almighty Geeks in the Highest -- about Paper Mario is like talking to the AFI about how much you loved Mickey Blue Eyes. You suck. As in, a lot. Commence the zipping of the lips about it already. So, as you can see, there's no reason for me to post much this summer, so you'll be spared from my shaking my blouse full of goodies at you via your friends list for a nice long while. (Except, probably not, if the post-about-nothing-to-post-about becomes a trend.) But hey, if you are looking for a good time ... you know where to find me.

12:34 pm	"I have had it with ... 34DD bras, which hi, it's a pair of boobs, not an archaeological dig, I don't need an actual scaffold, let the underwire do the work and quit it with the Ace-bandage straps." "And do not be starting in about how pockets [on a skirt] 'ruin the line,' because you know what else 'ruins the line'? Trying to stuff a handful of coins up my ass because I just bought a Diet Coke at the deli and I don't have my bag with me."
