It's like Monday, just a day late

Right shoulder and elbow absolutely killing me? Check. (I hope it's just because I had to switch back to a mouse on my home desktop since my trackball died, because that little ergonomic problem is fairly easily remedied.)

Air conditioning in the car suddenly not working on a high-allergen day when it's already 82 degrees at 9 AM? Check.

XP user profile on the work computer completely corrupted? Check.

That's three; from now on the day will look up, right?

(no subject)

Okay, let's balance out the morning suckfulness with a few happy-making things:

Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris. It doesn't get much better than that.

These costumes from Baycon absolutely kill me. Genius!

Wil Wheaton and his stepkid? Hawesome. "'You're trying to get your rock on . . . to REO Speedwagon?' He said, incredulous. Tough to argue with that."

I have a pretty new crowntail betta boy to hang out with Max. (By "with", I mean "near". Can't put two males in the same tank.) His name I think will be Victor Hugo the Second (*ahem*), and at the moment he's kind of lost in the five-gallon tank I got for him. I thought belatedly I should put Max in the 5 since he's a lot bigger than the new guy and put Victor in the 2, but I put Victor in the new tank because I really wanted to get him out of that tiny little cup he was in and shifting everyone around would take a while. By the way, Petco currently has a sale through this week I think where the Eclipse 5 Hex tanks are $20 off, making them $30. I almost got one for Max, but I didn't actually want another hex; I'll get him a different 5-gallon later this week, and maybe look for an appropriate fishy friend for their tanks. Do I spoil my pets? Of course I do!
