I woke up before dawn today because a vampire overlord had finally gone ahead and dispatched his sycophant army to capture me for their ritual sacrifice, which we all know is just a matter of time. I’m sure I don’t have to explain to you that in order to signify the beginning of a new existance obscured by darkness and ruled by vampires, they must first anoint the earth with the blood of a semi-comatosed girl wearing one sock and a cat on her head. I happen to live nearby to their headquarters and I fit the criteria; so there they were, banging on my bedroom window all smiles and pointing to the caramel latte-no foam they brought me grinning like idiots and giving me the thumbs-up at 5am.

Lucky for me it was just a Sonic Boom that was sweetly coaxing me out from my slumber. This morning I could HEAR the space shuttle landing in the Mojave desert east of Los Angeles. How cool is that!

Wow, and here’s a neat picture of an ice lake on Mars.
