Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
::tries to form a mental image - gives up in confusion::
Well. Maybe it's a soft cheese.
It's no fair that people get off for a holiday that doesn't even show up on my calendar.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Happiest birthdays to Beth and Beej.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Happy Birthdays, Beth and Beej!

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
I have such mixed feelings about DH last night. The acting was great, but I just don't like where the characters are going.
The whole situation with Gabrielle and Carlos is uncomfortable. I don't see how you just forget and forgive abuse. I mean, Gabrielle started it with withholding the info about the settlement (and I'm glad that the show closed that little loophole about Gabrielle being able to release the hospital from liability.) She's turning into quite the money grubber
Andrew is reprehensible, but I actually liked Bree a little better. She believes that homosexuality is wrong, but she's worried about her son getting in to heaven, which is sweet. (and BTW, when she said "I'd love you even if you were a murderer, I screamed out 'he IS' ")
Susan was not as annoying as usual. I wanted to bitch slap her mother into next week. How does she not get that springing a double date on her daughter with a man she has never met is cause for annoyance.
Lynette is great, as usual. I liked her speech about obligations, and not having to be friends.

Things you don't expect at 7:15 am:
- popping your head out of the shower and find yourself at eye level with a mouse exploring the scarves on the shelf above the toilet.
- finding yourself saying " Aw, you're cute. Really adorable. Little mousie snuggled in the scarf hammock. But you don't belong here, so I'm going to let you get eaten. DEVI!"
- still drenched from the shower, holding a very sheddy cat in front of you, pointing her at the mouse in the scarf yelling "See the mousie! DAMNIT. LOOK AT THE GODDAMN MOUSE! Phphphplbbt. MOUSE! Ahhhh!"
-standing on the toilet and dropping the cat when the mouse takes a dive for the floor.
- running around the apartment in the altogether with a plastic bag in hand, chasing the cat slinking rapidly around with a mouse in her mouth bellowing "DEVI. GIVE ME THE MOUSE. GIVE ME THE GODDAMN MOUSE! GIVE ME.....oh shit. YAARG!"
- the cat LOSING the g.d. mouse into the teeny space under the cabinets.
Hopefully it goes somewhere else to die or reports back to the nest the horror of apt 314.
I don't need that kind of excitement in the morning.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Re DH: I'd always assumed the but then you won't get to heaven argument is just a step away from but you will go to hell. So I didn't think it sweet at all. Just a wee bit passive aggressive.
Lynette's still the only one of these women I'd spend time with without needing to murder, and only if she left the kids somewhere else.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Melbourne Cup has a holiday?
Well, I hope it is a nice cup.

Happy birthday, Beth and Beej!
