Hey Jack Kerouac, I think of your mother

Send an author a Second Late Notice notification on their manuscript (wording of the notification having changed from Pre-Deadline's cheerful encouragement to Post-Deadline First Late Notice's polite bemusement to Second Late Notice's polite terseness), only to receive within one minute of sending it, an extremely apologetic reply email basically saying "I'll definitely get this to you this week. I am being deployed to Iraq on short notice. Thanks for your patience."
D'oh. This is worse than the time that I body-checked that nun.
Hey, BPAL lovers. Honeysuckle scent is one of my favorites-- any recs from their stock that feature it? Otherwise, I guess I'll stick to the stuff Bath and Bodyworks make.
I haven't had a chance to watch the latest episode of Supernatural yet; I suppose I'll have to get to it later. Work continues to kick my ass. Sometimes I wonder why I didn't follow my dreams and become the owner of an erotic cake shop, but then it passes. I suppose in my retirement years I can become the owner of a anatomically correct cake shop that specializes in heart-shaped cardiovascular cakes. I'll even do that weird thing where they reproduce personal photos and pictures on top of cakes, only I will reproduce personalized CT scans on mine.
Maybe I can sell this idea to hospitals. You know, like deliver a personalized cake of whatever organ is getting worked on/taken out/replaced to patients, either before or after the procedure. One million dollars. Who wants to be my backer?
