their master bath? Has a HEATED FLOOR.

The Dream Bathroom that exists in my head has that. Along with a bigBIG tub and heated towel racks.

How hard could it be to steal a house really ?

I'm thinking put on some spyrific black catsuits, a little distraction off to the side and Bob's your uncle. Or, you uncle's house is yours. One of those.

We'll be house stealing Uncle Bob Ninjas!

(I actually have TWO Uncle Bobs. I'm more than qualified)

Exactly. I've been watching a lot of Alias reruns and it doesn't look all that hard. Though I don't really like wearing that much make-up. But I would for a kick-ass kitchen and heated bathroom floor.

I have nine uncles and none of them are Bobs. Weird.

I have... eight uncles, two Bobs. Oh, and one ex-uncle

I am up too early. Although, I can nap later today so I don't mind. Joe is up and he woke me up so here I am.

We went to our Holiday Ball last night. It was relatively fun. I enjoyed getting dressed up and there were a few people there that I knew. The one woman I talked to most has an 8 month old baby so guess what we talked about. Still, it was fun to meet so many of the people Joe spent the last year with. They all said such nice things - asking about Ellie, which made me happy because it tells me Joe has been talking lots about her and telling me how much they loved Joe and his coffee.

We left before dinner time because Ellie was crying at home. Of course, by the time we got here, she was sound asleep. I hate that she was crying, but now that she's not, I can recognize that it's not the end of the world.

I am jealous of those with snow. I miss having a real winter.

Before I forget, here is a (not very good) picture of Joe and I: [link]

And even better, more Ellie: [link]

Oh, Stephanie, I think that's a lovely pictures of you and Joe! And that picture of Ellie is just priceless! Buffistas have the most expressive babies!

I too am up early. Must get Emily off to jury duty.

Before I forget, here is a (not very good) picture of Joe and I: [link]

Are you smoking the blinding crack, Stephanie? You both look so very happy. And you in that dress? Who would believe you just had a baby a few months ago. You're all slender-curvy-goodness. Joe in his formal dress uniform? thunk

Ellie, of course, is so very beautiful that there are no words. The child won the gene pool lottery. /mistress of the obvious

Deena, I'm glad the colonoscopy was clear. I am sorry you have to have the upper G.I. series. I hope everything is okay.

All the best on the job front to Maidengurl's dh and Calli.

Cass, is it time to go to the doctor? I hope you get better, soon.

Hey, Bitches, are any of you (except for Cashmere, who I'll be working on) not watching Veronica Mars?

If not, did you try it and not like it, or never get around to it? I didn't start watching it last year, because the name and concept just didn't appeal to me. I'll admit to being intrigued, because enough of my online friends seemed to be getting very into it. People kept telling me to watch. I kept saying, "Yeah, yeah, yeah." I did tune in once or twice, and while I didn't think it was bad at all, it didn't grab me enough to make me remember to watch.

When Joan of Arcadia (*sniff*) didn't get picked up last Spring, I started thinking about giving it a serious go, because really, all that was going to be on my TV slate was 24, and that doesn't start 'til January. By the end of last TV season or maybe even during the summer, my friends who watched it really turned up the pimping heat. I started TiVoing reruns, but didn't watch any of them, because Scott and I were doing our big Buffy full series rewatch, and it was so nice to have my girl back.

tiggy sent me the DVDs for VM season 1. We were still watching Buffy though, and were catching up on Lost. We got into Lost enough, that I had strong doubts as to whether or not I would bother with VM season 2. I wasn't going to be Mistress Ingratitude to tiggy though, because she was so sweet to send me the episodes. Similarly, Debet had sent me 2.01 which had been accidentally deleted from my TiVo (because I didn't bother to change it to "keep until I delete"), so I knew I'd at least watch that far.

One night, Scott caught a VM rerun, and finally showed some interest in watching. He hadn't cared about giving it a go before--another factor which contributed to my apathy toward VM. He got interested right when were were in about the middle of BtVS s7, and that season does tend to drag a person down. We needed distraction, so one night, we decided to start VM, right from episode 1.01.

I am so sorry I didn't watch this show from the get-go. I liked the pilot and early episodes enough that it was no hardship to continue, but it was just a TV show. Then, somewhere around the middle of season 1, it just grabbed me and Scott. Hard.

It's so smart. The episodes are so dense. I can't believe how much happens in every episode. I was trying to write up some stuff about last week's episode, and couldn't fit it all (and you all know I have no problem making long posts). Now I just want to grab every person I encounter and say, "Are you watching? Well, you just must. That's it. Go home and watch." And I figured if I am going to be grabbing people, I ought to start with my Bitches.

I never got around to watching VM when it first came on, and then things got to a point where I felt like I'd be too far behind to get caught up. So, I never watched.

I think I may have to remedy that situation.
