My first thought on seeing Natalie with her newly-shorn head, standing next to Lucus, was that it was her way of telling him he couldn't make her wear all manner of silly hairdos anymore. Kinda' a 'Fuck you very much for all the stupid hair.' (In a nice way.)
Jayne: You wanna go, little man? Wash: Only if it's someplace with candlelight.

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

I too must get my hair cut this week, for I fear the heat and humidity of New Orleans would prove very conclusively that tubby men of Irish descent don't look good in afros.

I will get my hair cut tomorrow.
Because it is too long.
Also, so I won't look as dorky while in NO.
I have bought shorts at Old Navy. And dress pants at Marshal Fields, which I actually got altered for my inseam. Go me!
eta: Also, I will have somewhere between zero and two (inclusive) iBooks for the trip....

24: Um, was that Mia Kirshner who kidnapped Tony at the end, as in first season's "Naked Mandy who blows up planes and kills her girlfriend" and second season's "let's bio-poison President Palmer at the very end of the season"? The one bad guy who no one at CTU has ever actually come across in person. I didn't notice her in the credits but it sure looked and sounded like her.

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

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm thinking of having some friends over soon, and am trying to think of lots of wee finger food type things to make. Suggestions?

I'm thinking about letting my hair grow out.
Also? My parents are coming in June! They are going to sleep on my futon and probably make me insane! I have no idea how long they are staying (I did urge mom to visit over me going home because there is stuff here I want to show off to them.)
Need to get a realtor. If I am going to take the better part of a week off, it should be productive. Plus, parental support to psyche me into this. And mom LIKES looking for houses. Like msbelle. Freaks.

I'm thinking of having some friends over soon, and am trying to think of lots of wee finger food type things to make. Suggestions?
I'm fond of the Dippable category of finger foods -- veggies & dip; fruit & fruit dip; hummus & pita; the world's easiest bean dip* & tortilla chips; shrimp & cocktail sauce.
You could make super easy bruschetta in the oven with Trader Joe's mini-toasts and various toppings.
*World's easiest bean dip = can o' refried beans, carton o' sour cream, jar o' salsa, shredded cheese/jalapenos/onions (optional).
Open the can of beans. Dump in bottom of serving dish. Repeat with sour cream, layering it on top of the refried beans. Repeat with salsa on top of sour cream. (And extra shit on top of the salsa as you feel so moved.) Et voila!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Devilled eggs always go over well (although I personally hate them). Chips and a good salsa. This sounds gross, but it's easy and scrumptious--we went to a buffet once at a Japanese-American friend's house and she served one of her mother's dishes--cut up hot dogs on toothpicks marinated in soy sauce and sherry and microwaved. She could not bring them out fast enough, I tell ya!
