And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

Hey - it sounds like a fun trip. Well, I hope your mother has fun -- I bet the girls in the chorus will for sure!

That's great, Dana.

Happy Birthday, Brenda!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

in fear that I will have to put on the heat or kill someone - ( who knew that cold could make me cranky) I readjusted the thermostat. I have to look for a new one. I'd like one where I can 1) have a different morning temp then evening and 2) have more adjustments on the weekends.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Someone just made the fantastic suggestion that I submit Save Firefly to This American Life. Ira Glass is a Whedon fan. Everything I write I read aloud, and if it doesn't work when i read it, I revise.

I have a pretty okay voice.

Does this sound overly insane and presumptuous? My agent says to of course go for it, but I'm not sure if I'm being crazy. Is this crazy?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Doesn't sound crazy to me, Allyson.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Why not go for it? What can it hurt?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'd say go for it, Allyson. Worst case, he says no. Best case, hundreds of thousands of people go, "Who is this Allyson, and where can we buy many, many copies of her work?"
