Silly Site o' the Day

'Tis the Silly Season! Robin found this brilliant Santa brand book. Permission is never given!

Just because I feel like it, an interactive periodic table of swearing. You got a problem with that? Via Laughing Squid.

Well, it's done. The price of an iPhone 5 with the most hard drive I can get just plunged (relatively) at Virgin Mobile's website, as I'd hoped, and I gave up on my bricking Android at last. My new iPhone, paid off in three installments, will arrive in a couple of days. Here's a BuzzFeed video on 30 things a smartphone-laden society apparently no longer needs:

Is it time yet for my Wholly Trinity? Not sure, I haven't even written our Riggs Residence Roundup to go with our holiday cards. So here's a taste:



Via BoingBoing. Yeah, I pretty much have the lot of them recorded.

Well, apparently it might not be food poisoning after all, but a gastric flu, as Robin seems to have caught it today and I'm not quite over it (mostly chills/sweats and a killer headache). But that's pretty much killed our weekend together. Of course, a new episode of Simon's Cat goes a long way towards making us feel better:



Although I wouldn't forgo the bed rest...

Well, I suppose it was inevitable. Just as my sciatica was easing, I did something stupid and finished off last night's sushi for breakfast this morning - and spent the rest of the day paying for it. Haven' eaten a thing since. Haven't been able to sit up for most of the day. Even lying in bed I haven't been able to do simple things like reading. Just moaning and feeling sorry for myself. Needless to say, I've missed our company's fancy-schmancy holiday party. I suppose the good news there is that I no longer have to buy an outfit for next year. Speaking of the food I still can't imagine eating, take a look at these lovely works of food art by Samantha Lee (via Laughing Squid). Wish I had an appetite!

Happy birthday to my beloved husband Robin, who deserves more from me than debilitating sciatic nerve pain. So perhaps some animated Banksy will do the trick (via Laughing Squid).

Turnabout is fair play - here's a Tumblr featuring cats posing in the same way as hunky guys (via BoingBoing).

Today was our 15th wedding anniversary, so Robin came into the city once more and we went to the sushi place down the block from my office building. Yum! Here's a site that I think has something for the both of us - Cats That Look Like Pin Up Girls (via Laughing Squid)...

Well, it's smack in between my birthday and our anniversary, but 'tis still The Season, so here's some holiday cheer:
