Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Went to see "Romeo and Juliet" at the Folger Theater last night. Good production, aside from the fact that fake blood must be the second biggest expense in their budget.(The largest expense? Laundering the costumes) I know that R & J is a tragedy, but when did it become a Quentin Tarrentino production?

What is even happening?

I want to know this, too. Also, was it here we* had the conversation about some of the really high thread counts being a bit of a sheetwank?

I have never had high thread count sheets. wanna buy me some ? (I always mean to. But then I see the cheap sheets at target and notice none of the htc sheets come in dark colors, that I've seen, and...yeah, well. I have 3 sets of sheets. Two flannel, one for guests and green cotton.)
I have to renew my passport. It expires in 6 months. It's 10 years old!

So is mine, sara. When's your birthday? Register for sheets and people will get them for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cindy -- some brands are lying about it. Wamsutta, IIRC, is one that's not. The ones that were lying were claiming twice over. So if the 1200tc guys are lying, you're getting 600. Which is still nice. But watch the price.
Sara -- I only buy in dark colours (I have maroon and pewter and navy). Overstock's really high end stuff seems to be white or beige. But they do have some 600s in dark colours. And Costco, iffen that applies, had (I think) a 4 or 600 count set for $50 or $60 in maroon (vague memories, but it was the full set of sheets I had to buy for my parents to sleep on and in).

Hee, Kat. I'll probably just mention it to my mom. Or not. I may wait until I upgrade my bed.
I have to find dark green. Maybe even a dark gold (duvet cover is a dark crimson nubby silk, rug is faux oriental in same.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism
On the "nauseous"/"momentarily"/etc., debate, I have 2 things to say:
(1) One of the characters on The O.C. just used "nauseous" incorrectly, and it happened right about the time I caught the beginning of the discussion about correct usage, so I laughed and laughed.
(2) Groundhog Day Thread.
Also on The O.C. -- dude, *I* made out to that Journey song when *I* was in high school!!!! And I'm 33, yo, so that's saying something.
And they namechecked "Whedon's X-Men"!!! (Which probably didn't need to be whitefonted, but what the hell. Quick-edit makes it so easy to whitefont.)
