"Octonauts and the Only Lonely Monster" is a kids book by the team Meomi.  This is what I have at work.

The puppy background is from the Nintendogs site and it was the wallpaper on my home computer for the longest time.  Unfortunately, it's now the default fields of grass Windows XP desktop.

Show us a video that cracks you up.

Show us a nice, warm scarf.

It makes me kind of sad NBC made youtube take down all the Hugh Laurie/SNL clips.

The world is enriched when craggy men dress in drag, especially if they were teeny skirts with stilettoes.

Which of your five senses (touch, taste, sight, hearing, or smell) do you value the most?
Submitted by Elisheva.

OMG, taste!  Without it, how could I enjoy duck and oysters?!
Mmmmm, duck.

BTW, Sarah, apparently there is a local restaurant that makes their own chips using duck fat!  OMG!

I may have sworn off piggy bacon for my health, but the hell I'm giving up duck!

What's the last thing you usually do or think about before you fall asleep?

"It's really fucking late/ I should have gone to bed two hours ago/ Damn you, Intarweb, for being so compelling!"

What TV show(s) will you be watching this season? Why?

Sunday: Venture Bros. (because it's awesome)

Monday: Tony Bourdain: No Reservations (not your average food travelling show: interesting locales and he goes out of his way to eat local fare)

Tuesday: it's knitting night but I'll try to sneak in House and Veronica Mars

Wednesday: probably America's Next Top Model

Thursday: My Name is Earl and SPN; I have officially broken up with the OC despite Peter's eyebrows. I'll also give the American Office a chance now that they won't be redoing the British eps now (I'd always go "that's not how they did it in the British version!" in my head).

Friday: nothing except for Best Week Ever and the Soup

Saturday: Samurai 7, the Henry Rollins Show and whatever is new on adult swim

Are you a morning person or a night owl?

If it wasn't for an 8 to 5 job, I'd so be back to staying up past 3am to watch World News Now.

Unfortunately I hardly make it past 1:30.
