From an email:

By now you've probably had enough of the whole Gawker account hackery ordeal, and we hate to pile more anxiety on. But we found your email address in Gawker's list of compromised user info, and it looks like you used the same email address for your Woot account.

We have no idea if you used the same password at each site, of course. But if you did, it might be a good idea to change your Woot password. You can do that at your My Account page here: [link deleted]. Or if you're nervous about clicking links in emails, just log in at Woot and click "My Account".

[It also came with a discount coupon, how cool is that?]

[Point in fact, I've never shopped there, they just have some things I might have purchased had I been so inclined. In the subject, I asked to unsubscribe from their email list.]

Dear Hips & Curves,

I know it's all the trend to use the word "must have" in fashion. And I do recognize that you cater to the D&S crowd, so I give a little leniency to you there.

However….

There is no garment I "must have."

I must have clothing, but not necessarily from you and not necessarily something you'd sell.

I must have food, but there is no specific food I must have.

What I must have is money in the bank, a loved one, adequate nutrition, shelter, and warmth.

Nothing you happen to sell.

Would the fashion industry please get the fuck over itself?

Deirdre

[Update, they did respond, apologize for the offense, and remove me.]

Friday night, Rick and I went out to the California Academy of Sciences for a company party. It was fun. Penguins! Cuttlefish! Planetarium! Free food! Photos (barely sorted) here.

Saturday was craft day, and [livejournal.com profile] vixter came over, and so that was fun. In the morning, Rick and I went to a class on growing biointensive, and he went back for another class later.

Saturday night we went to see Gamer, a movie with Gerard Butler, which was obnoxious and lacking in taste, but had some competent performances and interesting fight scenes. Overall, it's a miss. The first part was mostly action, the middle part mostly philosophical, and then the last part was completely different, so it felt like the writer/director didn't really get how to make a cohesive piece. Still, Michael C. Hall is every bit as creepy here as he is in Dexter.

Sunday, we got up relatively early, went to Draeger's for their Gluten-free club (more about that later) and picked up some things before heading over to my mother-in-law's for her birthday.

And now we're tired.

The cats are getting along well. I woke up Sunday morning to a little kitten mew and I looked down and saw the kitten looking out at the cat door and the big kitten looking in at the cat door -- almost like there was a mirror there that made cats bigger or smaller.
