Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

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

OMG, is anybody out there following the Astros/Braves game? I was looking up something else and saw that it was in the 13th inning, so I turned the telly on.

Now it's the 15th, and I counted: Houston has used 23 players, and has only two left: Andy Pettitte and Roger Clemens. Clemens is warming right now to come in in relief of some young sprat name of Wheeler, who has already gone 2 innings.

In the 14th, Wheeler loaded the bases with 1 out, and then struck out McCann and induced a ground ball to rescue himself. I think the game could be more dramatic, but only if the pitchers were all armed with automatic weapons.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jai Rodriguez has officially denied the rumors about them being a couple, but eyewitness reports and some looks they gave each other on an episode of QEftSG make me very, very skeptical.

That plus this show and I'm all confused. Faux-mosexual for the publicity? Or actual homo?

Gay, not gay, or just pretending for publicity?

Funniest overheard last night at a party we were at:

So if we were to break up, we would have to figure out who gets what. When gays break up, who gets to keep the Midcentury Modern motif?

Silence means security silence means approval

Clemens is now in the on-deck circle. Atlanta is out of pitchers, Houston out of position players. Bottom of 15th now. And there could still be a game tomorrow.

It's all very confusing.

And hey is that Millie/whatever her name was on Buffy getting squirted in the face in an Ask Jeeves commercial? If so, I am annoyed on her behalf that those boys from Freeks and Geeks are in tv shows and movies and whatnot now.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Going to the sixteenth...

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

Drama! I'm glad I am not the only one watching. I am currently indoctrinating my mother in what it is all about.

OMG, on to the 16th inning. This ties the record for postseason games. (1986, Mets vs. Astros) I don't know how long it's been in hours, but somehow I think they're getting close to last year's 5 hour, 49 minute BOS/NYY game.

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

Sure, Kat -- your neck of the woods, or mine?
