Thank God It's Over
Terry Schiavo has passed on. My prayers to her husband and family. Now maybe they all can get on with their lives.

The teeth are out. Will this be the last dental-reated entry? Who knows! Probably not!

William Shatner
Fametracker's Fame Audits are always cool, but this is the coolest of the lot: William Shatner.
The biggest thing I can say about Shatner is that he has succesfully eliminated the Captain Kirk stereotype in my mind. For now and ever he is "Denny Crane".
Tru Calling
Huh. I thought Tru Calling was gone forever. I guess not.
March 23, 2005
Hmm.
I'm both pleased and disappointed that I haven't been bombarded by hate mail over my stance on the Terry Schiavo case.
I figure either all my readers agree with me, or no one is really reading this anyway. Heh.

The Right to Die
Going out on a limb here, and opening myself up to serious hate mail, as I speak out on the horror I feel at the whole Terri Schiavo fiasco.
Next week: More about my teeth!

Deuce Bigalow
Because the original was so good, they made a sequel.
I'm shaking my head in dismay.
Ugh
You know, I can almost understand people's desires to have their dead pets stuffed so they can stick them on the mantle for ever. Almost.
But when my Samantha or Emma pass away, BY NO MEANS will I turn them into a THROW PILLOW.

Ugh
Bad night last night. Lisa was up late expunging the letter to her father from her mind that was keeping her from sleeping, and I woke up at 5 after sleeping on the wrong side with the tooth screaming bloody murder.
Very sleepy today. Fragile. Do not poke.

Tigey's dead
Tigerlily, the real-life inspiration behind webcomic "The Mows" main character Tigey died today.
I'm very sad.
Coffee
The little kitchen area beside my desk has one of those coffee devices that those little restaurants and convenience stores use for coffee. 
The one where there is a base unit that drips coffee into a large dispenser which can then be carted away and a new one carafe stuck in.
Boy, that explanation sucked. Here, click on the picture to see it better.
Anyway, I asked around. We only have one carafe for it, and no one knows if it has EVER been cleaned. And it's not like one of those glass pots where everyone can see how filthy it is and someone eventually breaks down and sticks it in the dishwasher.
This is one of the reasons I've switched to tea at work.

Sigh
March 28. That's when they come out.
I guess I can survive that long.
Wonder Woman
Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Joss Whedon has been signed to write and produce the Wonder Woman movie.

Part umpteen in the continuing saga of my teeth. At least there's an end in sight now.
Enjoy!

My Boss
My boss is the best boss in the world.
I went to her today, saying that the pain was just too much, that I am in near-constant agony. It's affecting my work -- when you have to re-type nearly every word for spelling errors, you know it's affecting you. It's affecting my social life -- my friends have been noticing that I've been distant and irritable and stressed and I've been missing out on games and fun nights. Pain killers are only barely working.
So, I ask, is there anything that can be done?
One hour later, she comes back to me. The company will start my health coverage early. As of tomorrow. The nice HR lady will contact our rep at the company to fast-track the approval of the procedure and the re-payment. All fixed.
I love my boss.
So I have an appointment for Thursday for a consultation, and while they can't say when I'll get in for the procedure until they have a look, their receptionist did say, "We will not leave you in pain."
Woot!

What D&D Character?
I Am A: Neutral Good Human Bard Mage
Alignment:
Neutral Good characters believe in the power of good above all else. They will work to make the world a better place, and will do whatever is necessary to bring that about, whether it goes for or against whatever is considered 'normal'.
Race:
Humans are the 'average' race. They have the shortest life spans, and because of this, they tend to avoid the racial prejudices that other races are known for. They are also very curious and tend to live 'for the moment'.
Primary Class:
Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit.
Secondary Class:
Mages harness the magical energies for their own use. Spells, spell books, and long hours in the library are their loves. While often not physically strong, their mental talents can make up for this.
Deity:
Oghma is the Neutral Good god of knowledge and invention. He is also known as the Binder of What is Known, and is the Patron of Bards. His followers believe that knowledge reigns supreme, and is the basis for everything else that is done. They wear white shirts and pants, with a black and gold braided vest, and a small, box-like hat. All priests of Oghma are known as Loremasters. Oghma's symbol is a scroll.

Revenge of the Sith
No matter how disappointed I am in the previous movie, I keep getting all giddy when a new trailer is released.
It looks so good...
Trek test
Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Always in control, you are a great leader, deligator, and diplomat. These qualities attract people to you, and this sometimes annoys you.
Aloof, introspective, and philosophical; you enjoy quiet time in solitude.
Elements
Fe... Iron
You scored 30 Mass, 41 Electronegativity, 77 Metal, and 0 Radioactivity!
I don't really need to describe you do I? You're the backbone of any well put together group... communally minded, out going and social, but you don't demand to be the center of attention. Without groups of people like you, human society would crumble. I mean that... don't change. With respect to realtionships, I don't know what to tell ya. I guess I'd recommend a first row transition metal... or if you don't mind being submissive then go for an oxygen... everyone else will wonder how you ended up with one of those drama queens, but you'll probably secretly love it and he/she will bring out colors of you that you didn't know existed.

Dice
Ultimate Gamer!!
GM says drop 2d10, aanndd... you roll 77% !
What, are you a first generation gamer? Did you own the brown box?! Whatever you do in your spare time, gaming seems to be your job. Either you looked up the answers or you're the best of the best, the type that makes other gamers strive to know more. Just don't let the knowledge overwhelm the newbies, it tends to push them from the hobby. We all bow before you. You are the living nat 20, congradulations. I'm going to flee the scene now ;)

Cool
Of all three Hitchhiker's trailers I've seen, I think I like the third one the best. Of course trailers one and two are good, but the third uses the guide itself.
Also, they've changed the release date to April 29, the day before the wedding. Think Lisa would kick my ass if I went to see it without her (as she's decided we can't see each other for the entire week before the wedding)?
Heh.
White Trash!
I am 13% White Trash.
I, my friend, have class. I am so not white trash. . I am more than likely Democrat, and my place is neat, and there is a good chance I may never drink wine from a box. March 09, 2005

Cool.
