{{{juliana}}} Loving doesn't have an off button, sweetie, even if things aren't working.

This. I'm still having some trouble with this and someone I love/d dearly, and I don't know when or if I'll ever be able to remove that punctuation. But I'm working on it, even though the change wasn't my choice, or my wish or desire.

Raq, there was literally COMM this morning when I read your comment about Legion's probable reaction to a Roomba, should you decide to bring one home. I loved Mal online, and I'd be miffed too, had I mistook stair gate for Stargate.

Getwell vibes for Ellie and her 'rents. Peaceful, thoughtful Thanksgivings wished to all mah Bitches, and happy family gatherings--whether of arbitrary or chosen families.

I'm taking the opportunity to wave at everybody before I get pulled under again. Hi!

I have caffeine.

The day can start.

~ma for Ellie and Stephanie.

Has anyone heard from -t lately?

Forgot to send virtual snuggles and health~ma to Steph and Ellie. Sick babies are no fun, especially when you're sick, too.

He thought we said we were installing the STARgate, not the stair gate.

Well duh, I’d be crabby too.

I'm dreading Thanksgiving.

I’m looking forward to the joy of having people over and cooking for days because I enjoy that part. Alas we have the big issue with Evil SIL (why oh why didn’t I manage to hook up Brendon’s brother with Trudy). I have absolutely no problem with just not inviting her. I don’t even have a problem with Brendon checking with his brother to see if she’s working and then offering an invite. I just don’t want her in my house. For years I have been able to be all non-confrontational with her, but she and DH will be looking to start a fight and they will succeed. Then I will get mad at DH because he should know better. Right now I’m just hoping she’s working a long shift so I can be avoidant.

{{Stephanie & Ellie}} Poor snotty cutiehead.

{{Juliana}} Always

Sending along some excellent job opportunity ~ma for Daniel and Windsparrow.

I'm at work because I pretty much was home the last couple days and I gotta get stuff done.

Oh! One of the people on DH's pool league team was very excited when he was telling her about the Buffistas and my involvement here. She has a deep love of all things Buffy and Angel, leaves her tv on SciFi most of the time, and loves to converse with people who read actual books. She's the only woman on his team and I'm very fond of her. She's a lovely combination of powerful accomplished career person, tough competitive sports person, and girly girl. So I'm giving her a shout today and inviting her to join our ranks. (I may have to come back and delete all that nice stuff I said) Whee! If I can't bring the Buffistas to my neighborhood I'll bring the neighbors to the Buffistas.

Real Genius is one of my favorite movies.

Mine too. And, filmed at my school! That may have affected my choice of college just a wee bit.

{{{juliana}}} I know it hurts. You wouldn't be the you we love if it didn't. If that makes sense.

Smart people on ice!

Someone already did the research work for me, but you have to admit shoes with no excuses -- not in this day and age.

shoes with no excuses

I would so wear them, except no legwarmers in my climate, and no pointy toes with my square feet, and no heels that high with my ankles, but I like the color!
