Hobophobe was accepted as a term at the pseudodictionary. (thanks for the tip,
The cleaning lady did an *awesome* job on my place yesterday, and didn't mind at all that I wanted the floors cleaned with vinegar to protect the tile (and Newt's possible tongue). I'm trying to decide how often to have her back. I'm leaning to about every three weeks right now.
Talked to CompUSA corporate, and the BS of the week is that they has to resubmit the request and failure report, and it should be shipping out on Monday, and it arriving on Wednesday or Thursday. My response was a request for an overnight like last time, because I would like to see my computer back before a quarter of a year passes from the time when I dropped it off. Rick said that he'll do his best to get them to do that, and I also requested that he get a tracking number so we can find out where the devil it's going. I know I live in the vicinity of the Bermuda triangle, but honestly, now.
I can and will warn any who ask about CompUSA's continued failure to succeed in this regard. I would really like to have it up and running before my birthday.
Let's see, the silver lining of having the computer packed up is more walkabouts (lending much to my current rubicund complexion as late) , got my apartment unpacked and clean and springtime fresh, now!
In news of the awesome, however: Zombie Astronaut is back and has five BBC airings / narrated by Christopher Lee - Listen to Christopher Lee's Fireside Tales
The Religious Affiliation of Comic Book Characters... So, Superman's a Methodist, eh? No mention of being a lapsed Raoist?

and require kindness. They resist
confrontation at all costs. (Feeling good is
more important than being good.) They are
typically quiet by nature, they process
things very deeply and objectively, and they
are by far the best listeners of all the
colors. They respect people who are kind, but
recoil from perceived hostility or verbal
battle.
WHITES need their quiet independence and refuse to
be controlled by others. WHITES want to do
things their own way, in their own time. They
ask little of others, and resent others
demanding much of them. WHITES are much
stronger than people think because they dont
reveal their feelings. WHITES are kind,
non-discriminate, patient and can be
indecisive, timid, and silently stubborn.
When you deal with a WHITE, be kind, accept
(and support) their individuality, and look
for nonverbal clues to their feelings.

Either way, you slowly bring out the beauty around you.
You are best known for: your touch
Your dominant state: changing

Date: 2006-01-29 07:43 pm (UTC)I think it'd be sort of cool to know someone had a book bound or a drum covered with my skin. Heck, I'm not going to be using it, and if a burn victim doesn't require it, why not?

Date: 2006-01-29 07:46 pm (UTC)Actually it'd probably be better off being donated to science.
I thought burn victims had to have skin from living recipients---I didn't know they could use cadaver skin now---cool!
