Lazy Bucky's quickies

It's Monday morning; if you can't tie two coherent thoughts together, why should I?

• When my eyes opened this morning, the first sight I beheld was Thirteen, on my drafting table, standing up and very purposefully pushing my lamp over. Then, when I got up and wandered into my office, I found that someone had snapped the bulb off the dominatrix leg lamp. The way I figure it, the cats want me in the dark so they'll have the advantage. I'm a bit afraid. Hold me.
  
  
• I very nearly had an out-of-bowels experience while driving the other day: Barreling down the road, and the van in front of me turned right...then whipped around and right back out in front of me. I mean, right fucking in front of me. By feet. There were cars coming at me in the other lane, but there was nothing I could do except yank my car over to the left as hard as possible, and then just as hard back to the right to swerve around the fucktard. I just missed him, and just missed the car coming toward me in the other lane. The only reason I can think that it was even possible for me to pull off that maneuver successfully is the time I've put in playing the various versions of Grand Theft Auto. Now I feel like I should practice some more.
  
  
• Digging Prince's 3121 CD a lot right now. Of course, Amy Winehouse is still getting daily plays (I can say with some confidence that Back to Black is my favorite CD of the summer), and I got a best of Tito Puente CD that's in heavy rotation. Mixed feelings on White Stripes' Icky Thump; it just didn't grab me right off like Get Behind Me Satan did, but it was interesting enough to bear further spins. Perhaps it'll grow on me. Still waiting for my copy of Myth Takes by !!! (pronounced "chk-chk-chk"). More danceable music for someone who can't dance. Go figure.
  
  
• Thanks to Laura for pointing me to one of the most hilarious videos ever, French and Saunders' spoof of Gone With the Wind. Just when I didn't think it could get funnier, then the last scene came along and nearly killed me.
