I really like this headline

"'Spider-Man' villain arrested at Comic-Con"

Book Review: "Then We Came to the End," by Joshua Ferris

It's a well-known fact that I'm cheap. I feel guilty spending money, perhaps because I know there will always be bills to pay, perhaps because there are starving people in the world, perhaps because deep down all I really want to spend money on is travel (which I never get to do).
I do have one down-fall, though. Used books. I am picky with what I buy, however. Generally they're spiritual books, as I want to be able to underline in them (which the library frowns upon). Once in awhile, though, I'll borrow a non-religious one from the library that I decide would be worth the half-price of Half-Priced Books.
And this one was.
With a slightly "Office"ish feel to it, it's the story of a company that's going out of business. With all the quirkiness that every workplace has, and being told in the 1st person plural, you get drawn in easily, able to identify with the people and the situations that are going on. It's funny, but not overdone, and just plain is a nice light read. I don't know that I'd recommend it for a vacation book, seeing as it's about work, but it's good on a lunch break.
And good enough that it now sits on my bookshelf.

Dear Giants fans,

It is never okay to boo someone, especially one of your own. You never, ever boo one of your own. You think Bumgarner didn't know he was having a bad night? That's when he needs you most. Booing is not going to help the confidence factor, and it won't help your cause. For pete's sake, as happy as I was to have the Twins hitting, I was still feeling sorry for your guy. What he needed was a hug, not your jeering.
And really, when you make a mistake at work, would you like to have 35,000 people booing you? And really, would any of you do a better job than he did? Shut your traps, suck it up, and go on with your merry lives. Booing is just not nice.
Sincerely,
Lucy

Dear Hulu + My Internet,

It should not take me an hour and a half to watch one episode of 'Arrested Development.' (Granted I'm the stubborn one who won't just give up and watch it some day when you're more agreeable, but that's not the point.) Way to kill a gorgeous day.
Sincerely,
Lucy

I overslept this morning

If I have a day off and work the next day, I try to get up by 9:00 so I can sleep that night. Today I either slept through my (cell phone) alarm or it didn't go off, because I didn't wake up til 11:20. Now I'm worried about not being able to fall asleep tonight. It sure felt good, though.

My great idea

R1/2 pants for those of us who are too T for R and too S for T.
That, or a tailor.

Happy Easter!

"He will swallow up death forever, and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of His people He will take away from all the earth; for the Lord has spoken. It will be said on that day, 'Lo, this is our God; we have waited for Him, that He might save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for Him; let us be glad and rejoice in His salvation.'" - Is. 25:8-9
