I can't remember the last time I actually have been able to keep up in here. How's things? And stuff?

I am vague in my officiousness.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Oh, did I mention the freaky dream I had last night about growing up in decrepit tract housing with a little brother and sister and the actress who played Apollonia on Carnivàle as our mom? There were all sorts of weird guilt-ridden family dynamics going on with more distant relatives (who didn't correspond to any actual relatives) while waiting at a hospital. And rhinoceroses in the back yard.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

and the actress who played Apollonia on Carnivàle as our mom?

To me she'll always be the waitress who wanted to go to France in Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

That is a cool dream!

Damn. I'm exhausted. So much for chit chat. I think I need a nap. Also an aspirin. Ow.

Hope everyone's doing well...

For all fans of England, esp. London, a very nifty website I just discovered.

Derelict London

[link]

Some of it's not very picturesque (rotting buildings and dead cars on the banks of the Thames), but the cemetery pictures make great mental images.

Now tagless for your comfort.

connie, that link is awesome. It brings up fond memories of some unknown Englishman shouting, "MIND YOUR BACK!" at us in Brixton before proceding to just barely miss vomiting on Christopher.

That and some Jamaican guy trying to sell my friend some pot on the bridge in Camden.

It's making me want to write stories set in those decrepit places. Oh, look, I have a new series set in London . . .

NO. I won't, and you can't make me. ::hugs TiVo, rocks back and forth crooning tunelessly::

JZ, I SO mispoke. If you haven't seen them already, you should definitely NOT watch these ads. But if you had seen them, you would know the fear.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, remember the crazy true stories of the ER show I love so much? Tonight we have: crazy clam chowder couple, crazy bride in a car accident freaking out about stitches on her face, AND crazy bar fight guy with a knife sticking out of his back! This show slays me.

I think it's the bad acting of the re-enactors WITH the crazy stories that really makes it.

"...we don't have time for your personality disorder." Ha! Also? I'll be needing a cap of the look Jack gave Chloe after the "I'm here for you if you need a friend," comment .
