GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Timelies,

Full work day today. My co-workers and I were griping about it yesterday. Whenever Christmas falls during the week, we get sent home early Christmas Eve. Since we have Christmas Eve off instead, we're getting cheated out of that half day. (Though technically, not, as we're actually supposed to work a full day on Christmas Eve, our boss is just nice and lets us go home at noon if things are quiet, and they always are.) Same thing with New Years. In the end, that's a full extra day of work we have to work. Stupid Julian calendar.

I stopped watching Season 3 of Alias shortly after the episode with Will. Lauren, and Sydney's "I'm missing two years of my life!" storyline just got to be too much. I'm planning on watching again this year and I don't have Netflix. What's the best way to catch up?

THis is me. I recently netflixed S1 and I remember a bunch of S2, but S3 was just too irritating with the memory loss.

Also, where can I get vampire legos? It's the perfect combination of two interests.

It just gets better. The power is out at my SIL's house in rural Ohio, and she called to say, "are you sure you want to come? We seem to be having an ice storm. It could be days."

mr flea: "are you having a pity party on the buffistas?" me: "yes."

All our presents are in Ohio!!

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Well, i'm working about half a day. The home office is closed for weather concerns, so there's noone to answer questions for me anyway, and my boss didn't have the heart to mandate I work today, though there's a lot to do on this project.

So, I work a half day, and make us both happy-relatively.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's okay. It's cold there. They'll keep.

Ack, flea! Some safe-flight-with-what's-left-of-your-luggage-intact-and-power-restored-at-your-SIL's~ma for you. Yeesh.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Hey. Ya'll, Scotland is *cold.* I knew this theoretically, but it's an entirely different thing actually being here. I had to seriously convince myself to get out of bed this morning because the temperature outside the bed was so different from the temperature inside the bed.

They claim there will be snow tomorrow. I will wait and hope anxiously.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have off! Of course it is because I was never "allowed" to take my vacation time this year, and now I am going to lose some of it!

On the plus side, I can clean my house while listening to the OC Christmakkus album! And wrap my presents!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Oy. Ice storms are not of the good. It doesn't really matter how many snow plows there are in that situation. (Makes for really pretty pictures, though). What are the chances you could re-schedule for New Years?

I'm packing up the 'puter and heading to KC. KC 'istas, I'll be there thru the 1st, so if you have time around all the family stuff and want to try to get together I can be reached at my profile addy. I'm likely to only check the e-mail in the evenings.

Happy Off Day for those of you who have it off.

Sophia, I love the Chrismukkah album; I only wish it had songs from last years Chrismukkah episode too.

I'm currently scrambling to find a slide projector before January 3rd when my class starts (the one where I need slides).

Ugh.

Slide projectors are so 1970s and I can't find one at my school to use and I don't want to buy one. Nor do we have a scanner that can scan slides.

ARGH.
