Ooh, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is on! Yay Crazypants David Tennant!

I love you, ABC Family. Marathonning the Harry Potter movies “to celebrate America.”

WTF, BODY.

This morning, my period cramps were so bad that I threw up twice and had to climb into the bath to regulate my body temperature to a point where I was marginally more comfortable. Then I got into my bed, still damp, and buried myself under the covers (mind you, it’s so hot and muggy in NY that I often don’t even use a sheet when I go to bed) and went to sleep, as that was the only way I could think of to stop feeling nauseous.

Cramps are gone now, but if I feel so much as a twinge tomorrow, I’m staying home from work.

Yeah, worst possible interpretation of “independence day” ever, life.

Broke up with awesome boyfriend because I’m uncomfortable with intimacy. And worse, he’s been too badly burned trying to stay friends with exes, so I just lost an awesome friend in the deal. Good job, Priscilla.

Yeah, sometimes a first-rate same-sex education can’t really compare with learning how to date.

Picked up Jaida’s book! Woo! If you’re in NY on the 16th, she and Dani have a signing in Brooklyn!

Where the Heck is Matt? A Global Dance. So ridiculously cool. I got a little teary-eyed.

Dr. Horrible Comic! Is it July 15th yet?

Tell me this ad wasn’t made by a John Hodgman fan. I dare you.

Lars Larson Rips Wall-E As ‘Propaganda’; It Teaches Kids ‘Humans Are Bad For Planet Earth’. Um… Mr. Larson? Humans are bad for Planet Earth. Though if you actually saw the film, you’d know the message was a warning against mindless consumerism and waste, complacency, and lack of awareness. All the human characters were well-meaning and recognized the vital importance of reclaiming the planet and restoring its vitality. A for effort, F for reading comprehension. And while I’m at it, another F for seeking to eliminate joy. This movie is incredible. I hope all you guys get to see it on the big screen.

Senators Craig and Vitter team up to co-sponsor Marriage Protection Amendment, which would amend the Constitution to declare that marriage “shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Un-freaking-believable. You know how you can defend the sanctity of marriage, Senators Craig and Vitter? Try NOT CHEATING ON YOUR WIFE AND HAVING SEX WITH PROSTITUTES/ANONYMOUS MEN IN AIRPORT RESTROOMS. Marriage doesn’t need protection from same-sex couples, Senators. It needs protection from you.

  • 16:02 @hodgman It’s the harsh, Anglo-Saxon, trochaic foot that makes the latter so appealing. Spondee is for lamers. #
  • 21:06 ACTUAL LINE from a TV ad that just aired: "ABC Family salutes America with Harry Potter Weekend!" Um. #
