Xander ,'Empty Places'
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I find that cats are far less work and less smell
This is one of the reasons I have converted to cat-person. Dogs are suddenly much less fun when you have to take care of them in addition to playing with them.
Which means I need to find a dog that doesn't suck to remind myself what they're like when they're cool.
I hear beagles are good for that.
Tim, you have a better view of the industry than the rest of us—do you share my impression that Wonderfalls was sort of a breaking point for the TV critics? It seemed to me that the love for the show was so universal among them, and the cancellation so quick, that most every review of a Fox show for months after had some variation of "it's a good show, so of course Fox will cancel it" or "why does this crap get a chance when Wonderfalls didn't?"
Jaye needed a dog. A dog would have made her happy.
That's all Faith wanted!
I keep telling Tim that Rebecca needs a dog.
Tim doesn't listen to me.

Maybe she hides the dog in her pink kitchen?
I was just passing by an ad about some students election that are supposed to take place next week. Most of the ad was the date, written in huge digits. The 8th of June. I nearly jumped before I realized the date had nothing to do with its meaning in my mind. Silly scary visual place.
Tim doesn't listen to me.
Speaking of...do you ever talk to Fury? How's he doing?
Fury is cranky. Which means he's doing okay. When I talked to him last week he was working on an act of episode 12 of The Inside, and talking about taking his family on vacation before 24 starts up in production.
Fury is Scott's favorite. He was glad to hear he was coming to 24.
Are you going to do a Q&A for 2005?
I dunno. He's giving me an interview for my book, though. I'm talking to him, and I got interviews with Tim and Jane about fandom, the power of the audience over the story, and such.
Interesting stuff from them.
My bitching at the yucky prospero board has resulted in one less "n" in our boy's name.
I AM DRUNK WITH POWAH!!!
Also stoked that it is only a week and a day away from yummy new teevee.
