I lent out Wonderfalls about a week and a half ago. I have a toaster, as the lendee has ordered a copy. But she won't give me back my copy until she gets hers. I need to remember my Firefly rule, and lend only one DVD at a time, but that's harder to do with the Wonderfalls packaging.

I want it back already.

Not if you're standing too close while she's getting one, you're not.

I don't know why, but this made me laugh and laugh and laugh.

like The Inside. I do. But I loved WF.

agreed, Kristin. i actually really love The Inside too, but there aren't any characters that i can identify with. Jaye was my hero.

I like The Inside. I do. But I loved WF.

I love em both. I think Wonderfalls was perfect at 13 episodes. And I loved Wonderfalls far more than I loved Firefly. Wonderfalls always makes me feel like dancing.

Wonderfalls always makes me feel like dancing.

It so does. The music, the editing, the acting, the characters, the stories, the silly. I just love it. I agree it was perfect at 13, but I wouldn't have minded seeing it go through it's ugly adolescent stage either.

I was ready for s2 by the end. So ready for s2. More so each time I rewatch.

I figured out why I immediately adored Rachel Nichols a few few weeks ago. She reminds me of my mom.

Oh yeah, I case see that. And look at the cutiehood that is you, Allyson. You look strikingly like my sassiest (and v. beautiful) niece.

I loved Wonderfalls so much, I still haven't made it all the way through the DVDs. After I watch another new episode, I have to take a break--at least a month or so--until my desire for more gets ahead of my anger that it didn't even get a shot. I think it would have been one of my great TV loves of all time.

I've been getting a lot of VM fans hooked on WF lately. It's been fun. And currently, my DVDs are ready to make the California rounds, hitting various people on my flist. I miss them now, considering the recent flare-up of interest in the show (the TWoP thread has become active again as well), but at least they're away for a good cause.

I think it would have been one of my great TV loves of all time.

I agree, Cindy. It came along just as I was needing something to love, so I was ready to give my entire heart to it. But then it stopped, and I gave my heart to VM instead.

Not if you're standing too close while she's getting one, you're not.

That's one of those "enough adrenalin to let a 100 pound woman flip over an SUV" situations, isn't it?

Hee. Easily. If you haven't already read about it, maybe someday, Deb will tell the story of Jo's birth.

We requested a change of nurses somewhere in the process with Julia's birth. I behaved myself as well as I could by deciding that if she wasn't soon replaced, I'd just get up off of the table and literally throw her out. I can remember the mental image I allowed myself--of picking her up over my head, and throwing her through the doorway. Understand, that was before I'd found BtVS, and that I have never committed a physically violent act against anyone. I wouldn't even hit my slappy friend back, when she was hitting me everyday, and my mother was begging me to slap her back.

I feel badly for fathers and other birthing partners, because during the more extreme moments of labor and delivery (transition was the worst for me each time, which is the last phase before it's pushing time, and it's extremely uncomfortable), it's not necessarily the case that just knowing the woman in quesiton really well will be of any use in deciding how she'd like to be touched, talked to, and reassured. I remember when Scott and I were driving to the hospital to have Ben, that I kept silently reminding myself that when the going got tough, I should remind myself how much I love him, and that whether he was giving me the help I needed or not, that was surely all he'd be tryng to do. It turned out fine though, he was very supportive and responsive.

Because it's timely and always makes me laugh, Hug a Timmy

It should be noted that I do not condone "hugs" nor calling anyone "Timmy."
