    We came up with the greatest idea ever for the vodka review. We're going to create a new bi-weekly/monthly feature where the four editors watch a movie drunk off vodka and live-tweet our conversations. We're going to ask if the company is willing to sponsor it and provide the booze for every edition.

    Managed to get two free tickets to see The Pirates of Penzance on October 30th through my discounted tickets program. I assume they were free (except for the processing fee) because that's the day a lot of kids are trick-or-treating, and they're having trouble filling the house.
    Woohoo, going with a totally cool kid I know who is into theater.

    Man, why didn't I know any awesome grown-ups like me when I was a kid?

    The MRI was clear except for chronic sinusitis, which I basically already knew about. Blood tests say I've got high levels of protein in various places and low iron. Can't talk to the doctor until Monday to figure out what all this means.

    That's not bad, right? Treatable, at least. Hopefully they can even you out so you feel better.

    I think it means you should go after that protein with a well-rusted pocket knife. Solve both problems at once. Much better than soitgoes' suggestion.

    I'm glad all is okay, Brightside. That's wonderful news.


    On a completely unrelated note...

    I'm happy with the outcome of the Col. Williams case. What an evil man. He will die in prison, and that's a good thing.

    The anemia makes sense, as does the sinusitis. The only thing that gives me pause is the high protein, which can be related to kidney function. I don't know if it's simply a byproduct of me being me, or if there's something I need to look into.

    He's right, though. It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with you. You should go do stuff in the world.
    Wishful thinking, perhaps; but that is just another possible definition of the featherless biped.

    No, I know. It's just that there's a bit more for me to overcome than my hypochondria. The hypochondria is only a small aspect of my broader anxiety issues, not to mention the crippling depression that's been keeping me so lifeless and unmotivated. Granted, a clear bill of health will go quite a ways in helping me regain some semblance of motivation.

    I love Lewis Black. That bit is great. I saw him live last year and he was hilarious.

    My rowhouse only touches the next rowhouse on two rooms-- the bedrooms-- and I often forget about it.

    Except this morning, when they are apparently trying to BURST THROUGH THE WALL.
