-- 7 Badass Animals Presidents Have Kept As Pets

-- I got up bright and early (okay, granted, the cat was going to wake me up anyway) to take the car to the mechanic to get the fanbelt replaced. The one thing that I'm grateful for is that it wasn't nearly as cold as it is in the Midwest so walking the three blocks back home wasn't so bad. (Thirty-five below? Dude, what the hell? That makes nine degrees feel like a freakin' heat wave.)

-- Heh. Rewatching the credits dance in Slumdog Millionaire is hilarious, because Dev Patel is right -- he can't move his hips. Plus, he screws up a couple of times. Frieda's more in step with the rest of the dancers than he is. They're both cute, though, so they're forgiven. ;)

-- My apartment is nearly totally clean save for the laundry in my bedroom that needs to be put away. SUCCESS. \o/

-- Jess got laid off for this week, too, then got called back this morning and told to come in. She's one step above me on the seniority list. I want to think I won't get called into work this late in the day -- they assume they need to give you time to sleep before you come in to work -- but it would be just my luck.

I love 7 Badass Animals Presidents Have Kept As Pets and frankly: "In 1903, one little girl--perhaps the most awesome little girl ever born--decided to throw a badger." may be my quote of the day for the next several months.

Well, let's be honest -- if you were going to throw a badger at any president, Roosevelt would probably have the most fun with it. He'd probably juggle badgers while fighting ninjas blindfolded and not bat an eye. :)

and he'd be laughing heartily at his own rude jokes the whole time.

Alice would sell tickets. She'd be rolling her eyes at her idiot dad, but still.

Man, if the Obama White House is half as much fun as the Roosevelt White House must have been, Jon Stewart doesn't have to worry about a thing.
