Ok, so the meme is to go through and list how you know / where you met the (non-community) people on your friends list. Swiped from thren and chorus. Folks I've met in 'real life' are in italic.

I suspect that the vast majority of the people on my list will fall into one of four categories: work, irc, gweepdom, susboids. We shall see.

Wow. That took entirely too long. Also, for those not in the know, Purgatory is the annual gweep picnic. We're not all really hanging around in some unresolved state. Well, maybe we are, but that's not what it means in this context.

So, a kind soul had given me a Best Buy gift card, and I decided to make use of it. I walked out with:

Muppets from Space

Dune (Sci-Fi channel director's cut)

Logan's Run

M*A*S*H (3rd Season)

Chicago

Empire Records (This is so donnerjack's fault.)

Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (Extended Version)

Run Lola Run (to replace the copy dvorak is keeping when I move)

The Bachelor

Flashdance

As Good As It Gets

Smilla's Sense of Snow

I will soon have a listing of all the movies I own, and you people will wonder about my sanity. Moreso than usual, that is.

Tired, but not sleepy. Bored, but lethargic. Jittery, but listless.

Bleah.

If you have half an hour to kill or so, go watch this. It's ridiculously funny, if you've ever played D&D (or really, any other FRPG). Link sent to me by dvorak.

The West Wing: The Complete First Season available for pre-order. Shipping 2003/11/18.

So, I despise feeding packet canned food. I have a real aversion to icky (the technical term, you know) textures and smells, and lemme tell you, canned cat food is right up there on both of those scales.

Last night, I tried giving packet some Whiskas or some such, since she had shown interest in such things at Nyarla's house, and it's easier to dump out a packet (hee) than to dig things out of a can. Amusingly, packet reacted to the food in the exact same way she did at Nyarla's: she licked up all of the broth, but left the actual meat bits.

Hrmph. Back to the drawing board. In the meantime, her feeder has been filled with the vile cat food, so she's set for the weekend. I still think that this whole illness thing was a ploy to get me to start feeding her wet food.

Just wanted to say thanks to bouncingleaf, callmyname, delenn1122, hanov3r, kazmat, and usagijer for their friendship and support and talks of late. It's meant a lot. You all are pretty nifty.
