Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

[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.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Popping in to say that I think Tim wrote my morning's quest for a passport. Except no one has died. Yet.

Tim, if you're working on the rough draft of the evening, please to include a strapping young buck and a margarita. Thanky.

I'm hopeful that Tim will be fulfilling my request for appointment television beginning tomorrow night. Though if you have any future project ideas that would involve angst, nudity, and Richard Ruccolo, I probably wouldn't complain.

Pimped The Inside to my folks again last night, so I can pretty much guarantee at least a handul of non-Nielsen family watchers for the debut.

Thanks for the links, occ.

Hmmm. I neglected to arrange for (in person) company for watching the scary show tomorrow night. That may have been bad planning on my part.

Ooh, although, I can do a phone and watch with one of my pimpees. That could work.

Tim, i'd like to request that you find me a sugar daddy so i no longer have to slave away in the work world. i'd prefer it if he was young, pretty and smart. i'd settle for old(er), pretty and smart.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I WOULD LIKE TODAY TO STOP BEING TODAY AND BECOME TOMORROW.

NOW.

Allyson, in my timezone, it already did.

Not that my today will have what your tomorrow will, so you'd probably prefer the waiting.

Well, the weather is nicer than today's, but maybe only the part without the sun bright in the sky. Also, the lesson I'm supposed to prepare should be finished by then, and the cold I've had all week will be completely gone by then. Oh, and isn't there some new tv show that's supposed to start in the USA? From that Minnear guy who killed Tara on "Buffy" or something like that?

There aren't enough tenses for talking about a day that's tomorrow for some but today for others. The language should advance to accomodate the timezones communicating with each other.
