I fed off a flowerperson, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

And I hang my head lower for forgetting a Buffy quote. How lame am I?

Though that really was a great x-post.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK. I am not doing school work (bad!), but I have written out many mother's day cards, paid some bills, done a sinkful of dishes, and made dinner for after class (unless it becomes linner before class). I am also continuing to load CDs into iTunes, which for whatever reason, feels like a real accomplishment.

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

A couple days ago I was wondering at having forgotten so much Jossverse lore.

And then a friend asked me "Why did Angel end up working for Wesley, and why was Cordelia so mad at him?"

"Well, in Reunion, written by Shawn Ryan and Tim Minear ..."

God, I wonder if there's anything actually useful I could occupy those neurons with? Or maybe that's why I get the migraines. Tumour of Joss.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Heh. It's always a good day when you get to provoke a quadruple cross-post!

I have written out many mother's day cards,

Jesse, how many mothers do you have?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just the one mother, but then two grandmothers, and then I saw a card "from the cat" which I decided I had to send to my aunt, because she's always sending me cards and I never reciprocate. So I got four mother's day cards.

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

A forensic accountant testified that Michael Jackson owed $285 million more than he had in assets about the time a damaging documentary was aired, bolstering prosecutors’ claims that financial distress led the superstar to panic.

Can I just say that I love the fact that there is such a thing as a forensic accountant? I am now imagining the opening scene in Quincy, except that instead of a coprse, he lifts a sheet off of some fucked-up general ledgers....

Jesse is a good person.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Allyson, to kind of condition her to NOT scratch it, try putting double sided tape on it.

Unless your cat is a freak like mine, who loves to EAT the tape...

the Unconversation

I love it!

Jesse is a good person.

I am currently avoiding writing to the family friend in prison, if that helps. And of course it's all in service of avoiding school work.

I used to have the best Unconversations with my old boss. "Did you do the thing?" "Yeah, the copy is in the file."
