Things that happened to me today
1. I almost got killed by a butterfly. Basically, this enormous butterfly is flying about my car while I'm stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Then suddenly, things start to move and we're clipping along again. And the butterfly dive-bombs me! He flutters his huge wings directly in front of my view and I can't see a thing in front of me. And as usually happens when I lose vision, I tap my brakes. The car behind me ROARS and nearly slams into me. And my butterfly assassin wanders off to jeopardize another soul. He was at least a very pretty butterfly.
2. Trying to figure out how the hostage situation at the Discovery Channel HQ is going to play out for me since I spend much time near there.
3. My work assignment just got mega-switched and I am nowhere near prepared to handle this tomorrow. Time to think on my feet!
4. LJ. Look, I'm not like everyone and their dog and ready to cheerfully rush Dreamwidth. I am a creature of a habit. LJ is a habit. I don't want anything else. I also hate social networking because I don't like being found. That said, I'm probably going to lock down my political entries even heavier because I DO NOT want them quoted/shared or the like. I am probably going to pare the list down to people I actually talk to regularly.
5. I finally looked at Hyperbole and a Half and am loving it.
6. I would like The Passage more if it could stick with a character long enough for me to decide if I like them. I guess the federal agent is all right. And I'm amused by the idea of an evil vampire named Zero.

...also on #4. I don't really see the point in switching for what is essentially the same exact thing.
I was amused by your death butterfly though. :D

LJ apparently says they're coming up with a fix, so I guess we'll see. And they can cross post even flocked post (some information still shows) so just be careful. :/

And yeah, I know about the cross-posting flocked stuff. That's why I'm considering being very selective with the friends groups for those particular posts.
