Bronchial Clusterfuck; also CN GoTard

I have been sick for almost a week.

When Stacey was in the hospital a couple weeks back, she brought back a special present for us to enjoy in the form of microorganisms. We have been hacking miserably now since last week. Our little heads are full of goop, goop which for one reason or another exists under about seventy times normal atmospheric pressure within my sinuses. And it was under these conditions that Stacey and I went into Boston on Sunday, and saw Les Mis. I've seen it twice before, but it was her first time, so I wish she would have felt better.

Oh, well, I think the illness is just about done.

Les Mis was awesome. The new Valjean is easily as mind-blowing as the original, and the rest of the cast ROCKED.

In addition to being gross and sick, work has been running me ragged, like some kind of slave-creature.

OH! That reminds me! Perhaps you have seen the new Star Wars shorts by Genndy Tartakovsky (I'm not going to bother checking the spelling here). Well, you can watch them with EXCLUSIVE COMMENTARY from him on CartoonNetwork.com. I'm sure that sounds fascinating and all, but much to my surprise, the awesome, talented artiste behind Samurai Jack, Dexter, and bunches of other awesomeness is actually a SECRET RETARD. I shit you not, the commentary makes me think he is a bona fide retarded person. It's kinda sad, actually. If you watch it, try to pretend that isn't really Genndy. He uses the word "creature" roughly five times per minute, and he describes the onscreen action as if he is seeing it through the eyes of a severely compromised hobo. Weep. Go watch the commentaries and tell me if I'm not right on the money.

Blergh, to work.
