…I’m A) annoyed and B) going back to sleep. If the plumber comes by, tough. They were supposed to be here “mid-morning”, which to me means somewhere around nine. I’ve been awake since 5:30, so.
I suppose I could call them, but I wasn’t the one needing them to come by, so.
Gah. Also, shut UP, stupid squirrel.

By the way, Gary? We miss you. Even if you did try to feed us halapeno-flavored jellybeans (which are seventy-nine kinds of wrong).
Veteran, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation member, language buff, and all-around nifty guy — I hope you’re landing Really Big Fish with your friends.
And Carolyn, I’d love to share my snacks with you one more time.
You know, in the “normal” world, animals encountering tangling vine-like things might actually stop, back up, and go _around_ them.
In _my_ world? They just keep going, taking the controller(s)/console/power cord/etc with them.
…I still don’t like small dogs.
Oh, good _LORD_. The cutscene at the end of mission 16? Probably not _intended_ to be that ridiculous, but I was nearly on the floor. *Giggle* Too, too cheesy.
“…That’s what my soul is telling me to do.”
“Here, use this,” she said, handing over the world’s only Swiss-Army Rocket Launcher (with built-in grenade storage!).
“What’s it gonna cost me?”
“You could give me your name.”
So bad it’s good. Yeesh.
The incredibly silly dialogue aside, I’m really enjoying this game. I may even accidentally beat it! Woohoo. That’d bring my Total Games Finished to a whopping 3. (Golden Sun: The Lost Age and Katamari Damacy are the other two.)
If you are trying to convince me to buy your paranoid theories/ranting (disguised as Groundbreaking Health NEWS!1!), you would do very well to learn how to pronounce the word that means ’short stories designed to illuminate one person’s experience’. That word? A-n-e-c-d-o-t-a-l. Ah-neck-dote-ahl. Not a-n-t-i-d-o-t-a-l (ahn-tea-dote-ahl). Something that is ‘antidotal’ means it is the antagonist to something — the antidote for a poison, for instance.
And it’s fie-broh-mye-al-gee-a (I think…), you moron.
…I need to stop watching infomercials.
Dominic Deegan: Oracle For Hire. A strange little strip packed with puns, alliteration, a seer in what amounts to retail (despite the fact that he hates people), fear, betrayal, death, redemption, Deus Ex Machina, two of the Worst Theives Ever (who have names weirder than even I could have picked!), and a cat that can talk. I read it all today, including several strips to an unwilling captive audience (okay, so I should clarify that the unwilling is referring to the listening part, rather than implying that I tied up a random stranger and made them listen to me).
