On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Lordy, I'd love to see Global Frequency get picked up somewhere. It can't be that expensive since it doesn't have the super fancy sets.

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

I totally loved her friend calling her out when she was complaining about the women in the husband's life.

I'd love it more if I wasn't so sure he was totally in love with her and her non-LA freshness.

well, CLEARLY, but I still liked it. I think that I liked that he was willing to call her out in spite of that.

I probably took too much pleasure in her being called out. I think I'm wishing for all the characters on the show to fall, except for the MBA and FBI guys.

I have found something I'd throw my second bed over for. I want it badly.

Burrell! Right before I have to run out, I *finally* get to post with you to congratulate you on the birth of your son! At least I managed to do it before he went to school.

My mother is grumbling now, and she doesn't know why. She'd be delighted if I ever talked about a guy within five years of my age. She's relieved if I talk about a guy who's legal to drink in the US.

thanks, Nilly. it's lovely to see you after so long.

Isaac is such a great baby. right now he's awake, fed, and quiet. the perfect moment for a new mom.
