Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

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

I started reading the Aeneid as part of a larger quest to become a better thinker and DAMN it's taking me forever

Pity me, for we had to read it in Latin.

How great is it that I can hit F2 and type g 400 yards in miles and the magic computers tell me 400 yards = 0.227272727 miles? Hella great, let me tell you.

Kat -- here's the primetime grid with premiere dates. For all your potato needs.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Steph, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Do you want it back, or should I just Bookcrossing it on?

I'd normally say Bookcross it on, except my school librarian mentioned wanting to read it. Would you mind sending it to her?

I do pity you, ita. It's so slow going.

So basically my take on Virgil is he was the Poor Roman version of Homer?

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

Some mint, but it took a hit in the heat
Mine is looking less than happy but I think it will spring back with some water and the temperature drop off we are expecting.

I would say that/beg/ask nicely for dw and Susan to send some sage my way but I really just want to get a couple new plants and try again instead. And have some Right Now so I could just do pasta for dinner.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Not at all -- if you can e-mail me her address (or I can send it to her c/o the school), I'll send it this week.

DAMN. Grey's Anatomy is at 10:00 on Sundays which means I'll be tivoing it to watch on Mondays since that's past my new bed time.

Also, Everwood on Thursdays is sort of sucky.

Maybe it's the cutie pie Beetles that are the problem.

This is true. I concede this point. Just out of curiosity, was yours made in Mexico?

I bet I can get you a deal.

Whoo hoo! I love the internet. And my internet buds. I've got Perkins offering me mothership discounts and I have someone on LJ who it seems knows someone at VW corporate and is gonna hook me up with some customer service people.

Guess I don't need to buy that www.VWbrokemyheart.com URL now.

Bradley Cooper who I love in spite of myself!

There's no in spite!

Which reminds me -- you haven't seen Wedding Crashers yet, have you?

Just out of curiosity, was yours made in Mexico?

I do not know. I wonder if Google will tell me...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hell, I can get you a t-shirt that says "I visited the mother ship".

Not that I have one or anything.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Virgil was the Octavian-publicist version of Homer. He's all about the "Well, okay, the Greeks were wicked cool, but we're, you know, we ARE Greeks, only way more evolved and cooler and god-ordained. Like, we even have more to the story that the Greeks thought ended with Odysseus in Ithaka."

Basically, Virgil was Karl Rove, and the Aeneid was his campaign commercial.
