Quentin Tarantino has signed to direct the season-finale episode of primetime's most-watched series, CBS' "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation."
Pity I don't like his stuff.
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Someone please tell my mother that I have no intention of moving back home and living with her again. In a nice way.
I thought I'd been pretty clear about the whole "take a job for a year in Ann Arbor, and then move on from there," but she's all, "Come back to Dallas now, you'll be done in May, why wouldn't you want to uproot yourself from a place you've only been two years anyway a mere five months after making a major life-changing decision, it's not like you crave stability or anything. Come on, don't you love moving?!"
And she is still very, very hung up on the notion that I'll actually come back and get a Ph.D.

What is even happening?
No way, baby. You want to be the grown up? Then you have to be the grown up.
Mom, I appreciate that, but I really like it here, and my university connections will come in handy, in establishing myself. Don't worry. We'll visit often.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Huh. P-C's post made me realize I still haven't told my parents I'm moving to Palo Alto.
I should do that soon.

Polter, I suspect Mom's may have found the perfect girl for you, except she's in Texas, not Michigan.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
PC, my advice is to let her be hung up and do what you want. You won't change her desires and you don't have to, you just don't have to fulfill them. I think my mom still secretly beleives we'll all come back and live near her, although we're all in our 40s now and it will NEVER HAPPEN.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Cindy, are you keeper of the preggo list? Fiona's got baby #2 coming at the end of August.
Sorry, Lyra that was you with the Smoosh info.
I've been at work for 40 minutes and productive for 35 of them. That's enough right?

Up with the sun
why wouldn't you want to uproot yourself from a place you've only been two years anyway
Where did you go for your undergrad, P-C?
</idle curiosity>
and I think Cindy's advice is good.
