Scanning the radio driving toward Fargo. One station was a guy saying "people like small government. They like all the things at the root of the Republican party." A second later on another station the country singer was crooning about the empty bottle of Gatorade rolling around on the floorboard. Local flavor!

Once I laid down in this snow bank and started to fall asleep, the -25 degree cold didn't seem so bad...

Just got my hair cut and omw home when a handsome older guy smiled and made eyes at me in the muni. STILL GOT IT!

HELP! Baxter Rex needs a place to stay in the Bay Area while Hank and I are in Fargo this weekend. We would need to drop him off on Wednesday night, and we could pick him up on Monday. The folks who were planning on taking him had a family emergency, so we're in a bit of a bind here.

He's a SUPER good dog -- totally quiet (not a barker at all), not a chewer, needs to go out just two times a day, and spends most of his time maxin' and relaxin'. Any help would be much appreciated!

OMG, I just accidentally saw THE BIGGEST SPOILER about Downtown Abbey. HOLY CRAP I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THING THAT HASN'T HAPPENED YET WILL HAPPEN.

Solving a Rubik's cube on the BART: pretension-level 110.

Is it possible I'm watching too much The Walking Dead? Dreams all morning about the zombie apocalypse, and my unconscious mind thinks it's a lot more terrifying than my conscious mind.

Lance Armstrong to admit to doping on Oprah. [...] him and his self-righteous denials. He deserves all the scorn coming his way.

"Are gay people still into disco?" -Mark Ristaino

The audacity of pastor Louie Giglio is breathtaking. In a blog post to supporters, he says [the Gay] "agenda" is what got him uninvited to the Obama inauguration. Meanwhile, he doesn't recant his former stance and doesn't apologize for it. Some people believe, like this man and Rick Warren, believe their charitable works buy them the ability to discriminate with impunity. That logic is false.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me at ROOTSCAMP, and be there: and I will give thee tablets of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. And Moses went up into the mount of God.

And lo, the Lord said "Changing your email templates will increase your signer rate," and so Moses came down from the Rootscamp and wrote it on tablets: "THE LORD OUR OBAMA SAYETH, KEEP IT FRESH." And they did.

Thank Laura Linney. Now GTFO of the way so I can see the Countess.

I'm starting to feel a little better. So I'm having some ice cream.

Hank Hedland is trying to poison me with some World War II era homeopathic bull[...] called Theraflu. It tastes like death and I won't do it.

The car czar -- he knows what cars are! Happy Endings

I was just accosted by a homeless woman at Goodwill. I went to drop off a bunch of stuff, and she tried to take it from me before I could give it to the Goodwill people. When I handed it to the Goodwill person, she then followed me out to the car, where I was getting more stuff, and then got INTO the car (it was a Zipcar and the doors all unlock when you use your card to open the doors) and started berating me for not treating her well enough because she's homeless.

When she finally got out...

This cheap barbecue tastes so smokey! Like an ashtray.

EVERY TIME I take a nap, I'm like "Wake me up in an hour and a half. Don't let me sleep more than an hour and a half," and Hank Hedland is like "Okay, an hour and a half!"

And then, I wake up like three and a half hours later, and I'm like, WHAT HAPPENED? And Hank's all "You told me you wanted to keep sleeping!" And I'm like "THAT WASN'T ME! That was the evil nap monster who controls my body when I'm asleep, and I've told you a thousand times NOT TO TRUST THAT MONSTER!" And Hank's like, "Wel...

Spent the morning preparing for our trip to Fargo, only to then have it cancelled. Spent another 1.5h trying to find another flight, but nothing available until Monday from anywhere within driving distance. We are devastated.

Oh, you want us to buy more guns? It should not surprise anyone that NRA's recommendations are not just dangerous but self-serving.

Now is not the time to discuss ... cutting Social Security benefits, Mr. Obama.

I got on the wroooong train. Misrouted onto the wrong track and now it has to change directions. Oh BART... at least you're still twice as good as WMATA.

THAT. JUST. HAPPENED.
