I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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

That's the one, Kat.

A co-worker just came back to the office after six days off. He says he's glad to be back. Excuse me while I go call the men in the nice white coats.

Sad because its a great house, FLW, even.

Though FLW houses aren't always known for their structural integrity.

At least it isn't Hollyhock House which is a fave.

I can't even.

that's the mansion that Angel hid in, right?

Wow, I'm really sad about that house. The BtVS connection makes it personal. I visited that house in 2002 as part of a Buffy sites tour. Damn.

Ironic:

"No house should ever be on a hill or on anything. It should be of the hill. Belonging to it. Hill and house should live together each the happier for the other."
Frank Lloyd Wright

The small glimmer is that at least no one was living in the house. It's tragic to lose a landmark but it's worse for people to lose their homes as more often than not, landslide is not covered in most insurance policies (if local news is to be believed).

Though it was common in Boston when I worked there in the 80s.

Sadly, this no longer the case, in my experience.

Well, no one alive was in the house, but that will always be S3 "stoopidcladdaghringembeddedinmyass" Angel's place to me, even after it is gone.

Up with the sun

My porn name is Biscuit Kingsridge, which just doesn't work. If I can use names from when I was a teenger, it would be Duchess Loretta, which is much better.

Update on missing!intern from yesterday, tying into amych's employee troubles: She called me at 10 and said she had to stay home because she overslept.

I appreciate an hour by public transit is a long commute. I appreciate that because I've done it myself. Therefore, I told her to get in here. (And I'm wondering if the person who told her it was okay to take a day off because she overslept, also told amych's person that it was okay to not show up because you didn't want to get up in the morning. What's up with work ethics in kids today, man?)

Edited because Jesse =/ amych.

I think that was amych's person, but only mention it, because now I'm wondering if I thought I was posting to amych, when I was actually posting to either you or Jesse, Lyra, if that is indeed your name.

Who am I?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I appreciate an hour by public transit is a long commute.

An hour is totally average. I mean, it's long, but it's not unreasonable. This girl needs a reality check.

You'd have to restrict yourself to only starring in stuffy period porn.
