"No sugar for you, you just get more awful." - Lucille Bluth

I am avoiding sugary foods today in prep for my glucose test later this afternoon, and all I really want from life right now is a warm cinnamon roll. I blame you, movies-michelle!

SO. A distraction. Last seen on shipperx's journal:

15 Books Meme
You're not supposed to think too long or too hard on this one. List 15 books you've read that will always stick with you -- list the first 15 you can recall in 15 minutes. Don't take too long to think about it.

1. Watership Down
2. Julie of the Wolves
3. Cloud Atlas
4. The Gap Series by Donaldson (esp. the first and last books)
5. Where The Red Fern Grows
6. The Time Traveler's Wife
7. Time Enough For Love by Heinlein
8. The Elenium trilogy by Eddings
9. Game of Thrones (the whole ASOIF series, but that one in particular)
10. The Monster At The End of This Book (...what?)
11. Unicorn U by Esther Friesner (and the first two books in that series, too)
12. Grace and Grit by Ken Wilber
13. The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle
14. Way of the Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman
15. The Giving Tree

On a much more serious note, I feel VERY STRONGLY about the pro-choice and late-term abortion issue and this sad but necessary article highlights why I get so angry when people casually dismiss the need for late-term abortions. It's not a choice a woman just randomly makes due to "mental stress." And treating women like they do is just...it really infuriates me. More than I can say.

Also, admittedly, it is easy to take care of the Puplet at this point while he's inside me, but I still feel like this is that bridge too far on safety. I used to eat grass - from the park - as a kid. Glovies really wouldn't have helped. Hee.

Seattle has a HEAT ADVISORY today. We are totally winning at summer right now. \o/

Here, have a very catchy song that is, when you listen to the lyrics, really stalkery, but I love it anyway and it's great for a sunny summer day: Parachute - Ghost. (Boxnet link)

politics is fat and ugly, meme-tastic, linky mclinkerston, can music save your mortal soul
