Night before last I got almost no sleep due to stressing out over my car. My car, in the meanwhile, sleeps fine as near as I can figure.
It's icky nasty hot outside, which I mention because if I'm going to bore you by talking about my sleep patterns I might as well aim for an exacta by throwing in a stunningly observational anecdote about the weather.
My little town has apparently been hit by a bit of controversy over a mother who accidentally locked her newborn in her car and then argued with 911, the firefighters, and the cops about breaking the window to save the kid. She claims it's because she worried that the broken glass would hurt her child. I can't help but observe that I'm fairly certain I personally could crash in the passenger side window of a Mini Cooper and not damage someone in the back seat, assuming Minis have backseats.
This line of thought turns fannish when I ponder how Tommy Gavin would handle a situation like that, and frankly if Rescue Me doesn't ever show Tommy dealing with that kind of stupidity I shall be quite disappointed.
Related to none of this: I want to watch Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert make out. Every night. It should be the bumper between TDS and The Colbert Report. Then there should be vids. Make it so.
ETA:
su_herald would like people to self-pimp their BTVS/Angel related stories, vids, graphics, dicussions, etc. Please do, as the Sunnydale Herald rocks.
