We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

So, all moved in, though the place is still a work in progress.

I'm typing this in the bedroom. As opposed to the living room, the kitchen, the room I'm calling an office (which would be the dining room), or the second bedroom (which I'm calling the library). Or the bathroom.

I've been living in studio apartments for the last 15 years, and before that was either roommate situations or dorms. I'm...well, freaking out a little.

I've done basically single room living all my life, and now I've got the bottom half of a house. And the stuff I had in the last place is taking up ENORMOUS amounts of floorspace. How did I fit all this stuff in one room?????

Anyway, the move was the least painful in my life (other than physically - hauling vinyl and books really gives you an upper body workout), so I'm feeling about as well as I have in as long as I can remember.

Are you ready to be strong?

Pretty pictures, Tom.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What Rio said, Tom.

You know what's freaky? Finally getting around to changing the lightbulb in your front hall that's been burned out for months, have it work for about a nano second, and then having it, all the other electricity in your apartment, and all the other electricity in your whole building go out.

Also, if any of the Laistas hear about a massage therapist at BW being kidnapped, it wasn't me. I was never there.

I can, however, now move my scalp.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Poor Paris and acquaintances. That sucks.

Yay, Lee! Scalp moving is awesome.

I need to eat, but I am too lazy. I think I'll have some popcorn for now, since that requires little effort and only two minutes and thirty seconds to make.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

She hasn't done anything to deserve anything so terrible.

The catty thing would be to say "she hasn't done anything" and leave it at that.

But she is riding a public wave created out of sheer nothingness. I don't wish any misfortune upon her. It's a messy hollow empty thing that comes with backlash already installed.

It's bad enough if you've actually done something to get famous. Worse, I fear, if you haven't.

Robot Chicken is pretty funny.

Someone should call Seth Green and tell him.
