It took me a moment to realize how subtly subversive this cartoon is. teehee to that guy and his coltish moppet.
It's weird, and not very Lost-y, but I'm taking a bold stance and coming out in favor of this Lost promo. I love Portishead's Dummy album, I like Dave LaChapelle, I even like runny eye makeup and resolve to try it next time I feel like doing something funky to my face when I go out. Also, did you see Kate's (Evangeline's) arms? Damn, those are some guns! (the promo also drove home that there are no two-women-one-man love triangles on the show. THat should totally change. I mean, three love triangles and they're all 2m1w? what about 2w1m or 3w/3m or 1w1cwwamws1m* or 1w1m1mimoig**?
But it is that much closer to new Losts, when wednesday will cease to be boring hump day and resume its Lost Day crown! (I watch Lost like it's my job/going out of style, can you tell?)

I was listening to "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" today and one of the lyrics struck me. "They [the Hobbits] don't like to travel away from home/ they just like to eat and be left alone." That makes hobbits sound awfully depressed, individually holed up in the Shire with their comfort foods spread out on their little snack trays while they stare remotely at the wall because tv does not exist there. To check the lyrics out yourself, feel free to watch the video, but keep in mind that the rockin' tuba solo in the full length version is missing from the video. there's another video with much more convincing hobbit-actors and the tuba solo, but I can't find that one. Bummer.
Due to the crazy amount of rain yesterday, both the library and Target were closed today. There was this little kid, prolly about 8, sitting on the library steps and resting his head on his fists when I walked over there today. As I approached the doors, he said completely dejectedly "It's closed today." I almost wanted to go buy him a book to make him happy. THen I figured he might just want to use the internet or spend some time in an air-conditioned place that's not gonna get him killed (*ahem* galleria mall *ahem*). I would have invited him over to the court-house, but as he would have had a choice of a murder trial, a nasty divorce, or a hell's angels weapons charge, I didn't think that would be age-appropriate.
As the girl on Team Intern, I think it will fall to me to organize the present for our boss. We don't wanna get him desk-crap or something else super boring like that. A part of me wants to get him a bit of carpet for his new (old) office, but that's completely unfeasible. What do you think?

I didn't want to post this outright, because it is really too silly to mention, but today I saw a man with a shirt that said "erection specialist" on the back. And it wasn't a joke shirt because he was, in fact, helping to erect a building. And joke shirts aren't worn and paint splashed and clash horribly with big steel-toed boots and hard hats.
So I laughed on the inside. Dude, you would have too.
