Good plants for a hummingbird garden...

There's a list here.

*frowns a bit*

I'm going to have to plan this out, aren't I?

And I want to stick a birdfeeder up, of the regular variety...

The migration appears to be over, at least - but I want these plants to be there or close to next year.

*eyeroll*

Due to an unfortunate incident with the sink's hose and some cups of water today... *coughs*

I skipped out on work and let 'dul watch his own kids. Hey, he started it!

Which meant that I caught the 1:01 bus this afternoon, right on time for this brilliant guy to show up....

This Brilliant Guy: Hey, how are you?
Me: (in the middle of a book)
TBG: How are you?
Me: Oh... do I know you?
TBG: *appears to be attempting to leer* No... but I'd sure like to.
Me: Yeah... I'm kinda busy.
TBG: Your breasts are really big.

Now, you're wondering, Gentle Readers, if this exchange actually occured. Lo, I kiddeth you not - he actually said this!

Me: What? This is what you say to somebody you don't know?
TBG: ...uh...
Me: That's pathetic. You need to try harder. Seriously.
TBG: Well, how 'bout we -
Me: Ohlookthebusishere!
TBG: But we
Me: BUS!
TBG: Bye.

Seriously. My breasts are big? Like I haven't noticed that somehow? Maybe the realization that my breasts are big will cause me to fall all over him in an orgasm of big-breasted-love?

Yeah. My breasts are big. And he had an ugly cap on. And that had to be the worst line I have ever heard. EVER. I thought your average guy grew out of such inanities before their voices broke, but I guess I was mistaken.

An entry from autismhub on That Video

Here.

Refering to an article on alternet, wherein we're informed that, yes, that video was less about Autism Every Day and more about Autism on Days When We've Gratuitously Fucked Up Our Autistic Kid's Routine in Hopes of Getting Better Footage.

Aren't you glad to know that? I sure am.

There's another article as well.

I suppose now is as good a time as any to link to this entry on "being in ones own world."

What's interesting about the attack in Mumbai...

Is that there aren't more people posting about it.

174 people confirmed dead.

Even if India is so far away you only feel sympathetic in the abstract, I'm rather surprised that so few people are posting. If nothing else, the potential implications for the US (which isn't far away to me, at least) are less than good. (Hey, anything to justify another war, right? I can see that coming up somehow, somewhere.)
