how are you?

Not supposed to be here but playing a bit anyway?

That's a strange way to spell "really busy", isn't it? The semester is a bit crazy, and I'm way behind on all sorts of stuff I have to do. Oh, and we found a new roommate! She's several years younger than the average age of me and my roommates, but she doesn't seem to care (most girls her age wouldn't even consider flatmating with senior citizens like me and my roommates). She seems really nice, and I hope all of us will get along well. I really miss the one that left, but she got married and is really happy, so I forgive her for leaving, kind soul that I am.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

On GA, I was wondering if they were using the patient's decision to "balance out" Christina's, or at least show that different women will make different decisions.

eta: I'm glad you found a roommate you think will work out, Nilly.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Robin, yes. I was disappointed with how little I'd heard from Ian in the reunion, particularly w/r/t Katie. Speaking of, I remember now how absurdly outraged Katie was that Ian was considering Tom's offer to take him if he jumped. God, she's ridiculous. About the only thing she brought to the game was the ability to guilt-trip Ian, and pretty much everyone was able to do that, she just got there first.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Maybe I read too much sci-fi, but this seems like a disaster waiting to happen. I can't put my finger on why -- I suspect it's just that whenever someone fucks with the chemistry of water in science fiction, it ends up being a bad idea, so hearing about it happening in real life makes me nervous.

It'll be fine. We're not talking about Ice-9 here. It sounds like all they've done is pump a lot of oxygen and a little salt into distilled water. As noted in the article, the stuff rapidly returns to ordinary water once exposed to normal environment.

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

I'm glad Ian got a car. the poor crazy-eyed goofball. The BF tells me that car is worth $60,000, so he could sell it and have enough after taxes to pay off his school loans if he wanted.

I LOVED that the "goodbye" montage had Janu crying in EVERY scene. I guess Burnett hated her as much as the rest of us.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sumi, I thought that might be Ping too!

Had he called her "Sleepy-doo" we'd have known.

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

I am in my new cube.

Unsurprisingly, I kinda hate it. I had two cubes worth of stuff, and now have to squeeze it into one. And they messed up my monitor when moving it, so the bottom right hand corner is too blue.

See? Hate.

DXM! Good to post with you (I hadn't in a long time).

ita, I'm sorry about the hateful cube and the blued monitor. What a fun way to start a week.
