Poll, supernatural creature edition.

Bum and I have an ongoing...I don't know...debate? Amicable difference of opinion? Blistering war of hateful fury?

Bum likes vampires. I know. And I still like her.

Where I am a werewolf/shifter fan. Because I am obviously much more sensible.

So I'm curious. Do other people have this sharp divide which clearly delineates what kind of person you are. Corpse-mongering necrophiliac or bestiality-tolerant zoophiliac?

Huh (part deux).

When did this blog turn into a Colin Firth's penis-centric blog?

Not that I have any problem with that.

Insidious.


I hate Facebook.



I hate Facebook because it lulls me into thinking that I'm actually keeping in contact with friends.



I hate Facebook because I am, in actuality, not keeping in touch with friends, but merely reading one line "updates."



I hate Facebook because rather than showing up with a cupcake, or hug, or hatching egg, I push some buttons and voila!, no actual effort needed.



I hate Facebook because my 50+ year old supervisor is on Facebook and I think he may be the type to search me.



I hate Facebook because there are patients on Facebook (who I have searched) and I can post limited amounts of information.



I hate Facebook because, really, I wouldn't actually put anything very salacious up.



I hate Facebook because this reminds me that I don't have anything very salacious to put up.



I hate Facebook because I am addicted to Facebook.



And what the fuck is with the new IM-feature?

Now for a non-Colin Firth's penis post.

Am in love with Engineer #1. Damn my cat allergies.

List of things on my desk at work. Right now.

Diary of a patient.
Caddy of office crap.
Purell.
Business cards (that I have to hand print my name and number on).
Travel mug of stale, overly sweetened coffee.
Paper cup of overly sweetened Crystal Light (Pomegranate Cherry with B-vitamins. Am obviously a health nut).
Datebook.
Cell phone (with Internet access, so I can look at sites my office computer blocks. Am obviously a subversive revolutionary).
Ceramic pen container with an Asian character on it, that was made in Denmark that I think just toes the line of being racist, but it's over thirty years old and my parents bought it, so I don't care very much.
Hunk of hematite. To "ground" me. Whatever the fuck that means.
Phone (that seems vaguely dirty).
To-Do lists miles and miles long.

I'm pretty sure this makes me the most boring-est person ever. But that's okay. Because Bum has managed to bring up Colin Firth's penis, which makes me think of the story that Mr. Firth told of when he was making Pride and Prejudice. He was told, allegedly, to pretend he had an enormous erection whenever he looked at Elizabeth.

Worked for me.

I fold



Just watching (and totally crushing on) Colin Firth on the Daily Show (I'll put up a clip later tomorrow). He's got a great gray jacket on, rather tight jeans and an absolutely lovely laugh.

Jon Stewart's just asked him "what happens if you Google Colin Firth's penis?"

and CF goes "It's huge anywhere" (to the sound of loud cheers).

ETA: The clip is now available. Enjoy
