Susan, I'm friends with Jennifer Crusie

Lorne: You know what they say about people who need people. Connor: They're the luckiest people in the world. Lorne: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, Kiddo? Connor: Just kinda popped out.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Salad shooters still exist? Cool.
lori, thanks.
I'm pleasantly amused at the intersection of fandoms and the path of gossip/news.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I love Jennifer Crusie's writing advice columns in RWR, and she's one of the few exceptions to my "no non-paranormal contemporary settings" rule.
I was thrilled she won, and also that Laura Kinsale's Shadow Heart won Long Historical--gave me hope there's room for edgy and different in the genre.
I'm probably going to enter the GH this time around, and if I get lucky and final, I'll go to Atlanta for the conference next year.

Awesome, thanks Aimee (and everyone else)!
I figured the choppers would screw up the cheese, but I didn't want to have to open one to find out.

If I only had a brain...
Crusie is an excellent teacher (which isn't surprising -- she used to teach school); if she's ever at an RWA chapter session near you, GO!

Headlines that did NOT reassure me:
Spacewalk sounds scarier than it is, NASA says. The astronauts couldn't finish the interview, as it was time for their naps.

Robinson said his biggest concern will be to avoid butting the shuttle tiles with his helmet.
They should duct tape a pillow to the top of his helmet.

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

See now, if anyone else here said that I'd just laugh and then forget about it.
Now I'm worried.

The last thing you want is cranky-pants astronauts.

You know.....
I mean, I laughed but...
eta: if it wasn't perfectly clear, that seems like a reasonable approach.
