Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs. Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

What is even happening?

We do. But that is because in a few months I will be trapped inside as surely as by snow.

Oh, yeah. For all my bitching, I'd rather have it cold than hot.

Swouncing

Cindy, my sort-of-point was that, instead of getting the leftovers from what we call winter during what we call spring, we get the previews for the summer (even erika will call that summer).

probably late June, but we'll have to see how it works out

I'm sure we'll be able to work something out.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm sure we'll be able to work something out.

That would be great.

Yikes. I just noticed the time. I've got to go have office hours.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

That's not Spring? Actually, that's not Spring for here, because you forgot Wind. Lots and lots of Wind. Which is better than Fairbanks, where you get Mud and have to wear Breakup Boots.

Hee. I'm sorry, Nilly. I understood that. I think I just fumbled and made my own sort-of-point, twice.

eta...

I can't believe I forgot the wind, juliana. How about when you lived in Alaska? Can Alaska's summer count as Spring?

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

Art Crawl!!!

I must be more spoiled for VM than I thought -- I didn't think either of the two MAJOR things that were left slip in that Salon article were that spoilery.

Also, you guys know that you can see the teaser on the UPN VM site and today, on the TVGuide site too, right?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well, that's...odd.

I had a disappointing bagel this morning. It's an inauspicious start to the day.

Can Alaska's summer count as Spring?

Not in the Interior. It can get over 90 degrees in Fairbanks during June and July. Blech. Nope, it's mostly Tourist Season and Winter, with a week each for Breakup and Leaves Dropping.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I didn't think of the two things mentioned in the VM as spoilers. the last one I knew had to happen and the other is part of it.

so it wasn't supposed to rain today. but it is
