Parboiled

[gwyn]

Since my brain has been parboiled enough by the heat to stay home from work, I'm following dragolyn's lead and doing a meme (which I normally don't do, but I have nothing else to update the journal with except bubbling over with how much I adore Queer Eye for the Straight Guy).

The lengths I have to go to get Alphabits here in my neck of the woods is extraordinary. You know you're hooked when you'll drive somewhere just to get it.

I love on cereal, and it's a bad thing, but I can't help it. Me and Jerry Seinfeld.
