That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

How long until my alarm goes off in the morning?

17.

If I fell asleep Right Now, how much sleep could I get.

17!

If two trains leave different cities heading toward each other at different speeds, when and where do they meet?

17!

That's good math.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

maybe it was about Inara? In "Shindig" or "Out of Gas" or "Heart of Gold" or "Trash", all of which may include relevant plot points to such a though?
I think so. It sounds like Inara and her relationship with Serenity, and by extension, her unspoken relationship Mal.

Goodnight! It was lovely talking with you tonight.

My favorite number too actually. And it is now 1:17 so I will take that as a sign...

So it was actually an answer to something? Wow.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

17!

17!

17!

Oh dear. We broke Nilly.

What, don't you think I'm like that already?

Whenever I TA and need a numerical example, the first number that jumps to my mouth is 17. So, at least a few times a day, in the past couple of weeks, with this summer class, I get to use it (only, exclamation-point-less-ly, mostly).

Oh, Nilly. Unleashing the 17 should never be pointless.

Not pointless, exclamation-point-less.

Off to TA!

Have fun ensmartening people, Nilly.

I am still awake. Grrr. I'm missing some crucial combination of sleepy, tired and quiet brain. Two out of three aren't cutting it, no matter the combinations I try.

I have a Letterman rerun on with Paul Newman. I'm content, if not asleep.

New math: If I changed my alarms to the edge of reason and went to sleep right now, I could get four and a half hours. As it stands, I have 11 minutes to fall asleep and get four hours (before I start smashing the snooze alarm) of rest. It's yucky math. Lacking in 17s and enough rest.

I like Paul Newman. He's funny. And to say he has aged well, yowza. I don't know whether Paul Newman should be my supersekrit godfather or boyfriend. Confusion.

Maybe I can add the sleepy and the tired to the confusion, thus making brain quiet. Because I should be asleep before the east coast rises.

To sum up my post: Awake but don't wanna. Paul Newman dreamy and my admiration can be measured in bucketloads. Math bad and lacking in 17s.
