Misc Utterings

This morning, I forgot my watch on the nightstand at home. Now I don't know what time it is down to the millisecond.


For the second night in a row, I spent the entire night in my own bed. 2008 is turning out to be a banner year.


Yesterday afternoon, I picked up [livejournal.com profile] kent4str at the Metro station. (I keep telling him he could make more money working more popular street corners, but he's there twice a day regardless.) Anyway, I was amused by the vanity tag on the SUV in front of me:



Zipping southbond along I95 home from square dancing in Baltimore last night, we were passed by a huge tanker truck with markings indicating it was carrying molasses.

[livejournal.com profile] kent4str: "Considering the month, shouldn't it be going a lot slower?"
[livejournal.com profile] bjarvis: "Yeah, probably. But it's a sweeeeeeeet ride!"

Fortunately, he couldn't hit me 'cause I was driving and we would have both died.

It could be much less sweet than you think; see here.

Ick. Pretty gruesome.

And gluesome.

Yup, I thought of that incident as we passed the truck, grateful we were uphill.

Good, though with [livejournal.com profile] bjarvis' luck you'd've managed to do so in a space-time inversion that locally reversed gravity's direction.

Too bad that plate is already taken, it would be perfect for Kent's van.

On the assumption that you're not driving at the present moment, THWAP!

If the conversation around your home is like that often, can I come sit in a corner for a weekend? The entertainment (not to mention the rest) would be ever so welcome.

Oh and if it's any enticement at all...the right smile and humour melts me totally. ;)

No one gets to just sit in the corner... everybody participates! We'll save you a spot in the middle. :-)

When pressed, I will admit to a liking for the middle.
