i'd send those clowns a message by staying home on election day and dressing up like a clown

I discovered yesterday that if you aren't eligible to vote in the election (why did my mother choose Canadian/Trinidadian dual citizenship for me instead of Canadian/American, dammit?!?) the best way to soothe your jangled nerves is to go see LASER POP at the planetarium. Because nothing puts you into a vegetative state of pure confounded pleasure faster than Justin Timberlake's heartbreak as interpreted by a laser re-creation of aurora borealis. Seriously, why the smeg did they choose "Never Again" for the show? Why the slowest song on the album and not something that had an actual beat to it? Oh, well. At least I didn't get pinkeye from the gift shop toys like my sister did.

So I watched Everwood tonight and, um...is Hannah supposed to be annoying? Because I got a real Fred-like vibe from her that I didn't like one bit. Before that I was watching Gosford Park, and in the "making of" there's this shot of Clive Owen talking to Altman and in the middle of the conversation Altman casually reaches up to straighten Clive's tie and I WANT THAT TO BE ME. Er...the one nonchalantly grooming Clive Owen, that is. I have no Robert Altman fantasies. And Ryan Phillippe's Scottish accent somehow gets worse and worse every time. God, I love that movie.

The Wee Sister sent me a warning note (re: the pinkeye) wherein she cussed out the gift shop toys and the infected children who played with them, but as of yet my eyes are still white and non-itchy. Only, my ear is plugged and a little hurty; could I possibly have PINKEYE OF THE EAR?

Yes, because your ear communications with your eye via the nasolacrical duct. It's a common source of the spread of infection.

And I'm just gonna go back to the nerd corner now.

Wait, scratch that. Your NOSE communicates with your eye via blah, blah, blah, and while your ear communicates with your nose, which would allow for the spread of infection, your middle ear is also directly below your eye, so that's probably how the infection spread.

Eiiiiwww. This is like when you confirmed that spinal nerves or whatever look like angel hair pasta. Why are you so full of gross information, monkey?!?! Is it because you LOVE YOUR SON?!?!?

smeg. heh. RED DWARF4EVA, yo!

my friend has dual American-Japanese citizenship. she says she's giving up American citizenship if Bush gets re-elected but i think it's an empty threat. who in their right minds want to get printed and tagged everytime they visit the States, if there was any possible way to avoid it, eh? (they planted a CHIP in MY BRAIN! john ashcroft knows my seekrit thoughts!)

Just about every aspect of being an American seems kind of scary, all of a sudden. I wonder if Bush is gonna put stricter border security into place? On the one hand I wouldn't be surprised (what with all the TERRORISTS we apparently keep sending them), but on the other hand I'd be surprised if he considered Canada at ALL.

Red Dwarf is the coolest. I need to buy more of the DVDs!!

PINKEYE OF THE EAR?

O, the tragedy of Pinkear! Why doesn't it look right?

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

"Pinkear" looks like the brand name for a coat manufacturer, or something. But! It appears that I did not have pinkear, because I was able to put some olive oil in my ear and relieve the hurtiness! Thank goodness -- I don't know how I would have explained pinkear to the doctors at the clinic without extreme shame issues.
