I feel like a zombie

I had to go see my doctor yesterday for renewals on my anxiety and sleep meds. Luckily, (or not) that was the day I started trying to cough up a lung. I've also got a sinus infection, but the doc gave me that wonderfule cough syrup with the codiene. I'm gonna go to sleep now...

Fleas my cats have

How the hell they got fleas is beyond me, but the damn things must be screwing like bunnies AND immune to treatments, because we ended up having to give Mika a bath last night.

Read that last sentence again. I'm just glad she's front declawed and we have a deep tub, otherwise I'd have stitches today.

Putin's Lost it

He's running for the Batshitcrazymobile as I type. He's now claiming that the US orchestrated the late unpleasantness between Russia and Georgia. Dude, we can't organize a fuckup in a whorehouse here in the US (see: Katrina, Rita, etc), much less half a world away!

Tech stuff

I've given up on Mobipocket. Flat out given up. I cannot figure out what the hell is causing it to hang up in the HotSynch process, but it's just not worth the headaches. Those are for school and family. I've moved on to Plucker, which is open source and DRM free.

Wow

This is in a mall in Fukuoka, Japan.



I'm told this works kind of like a dot matrix printer, but with water droplets instead of ink. Mesmerizing, isn't it?

Dammit!

I missed being able to skip my typing class altogether by TWO ERRORS! Bah!

I'm too bloody old for school!

I've gone from 'w00t! Classes are starting soon!' to 'ZOMFG, I've got 17 hours worth of classes starting NEXT WEEK!!!1!' And I need to write a nice thank-you note to Gov. Grnaholm for No Worker Left Behind, because my books cost over $800!
