Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Did your vision go blurry or like tv static?

It's hard for me to remember. Partially because, since we were at a concert, the light colors kept changing and flashing and stuff. I don't know if they were really changing or if I was seeing things.

Though the bad 'smores is still my favorite theory. For the fun!

(Yes, I really did turn to Allyson, when I was conscious again, to say, "You think the food was poisoned?" I am the most paranoid person EVAH!)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My woozy but not actually fainting sodes always include cold sweats.

I have low blood pressure and anemia, though I think intermittently, and now I'm suddenly grateful I've never hit the floor.

ETA: Brenda, maybe there was some funky coating on the light bulbs? Was it a different brand than you usually buy?

I think it must have been something like that. They were different than what I ususally get, so maybe so.

Oh, and ita, I do appreciate George, which is all she says I should be doing. "Appreciate" is a far cry from love.

About another slightly spoilery thing in that article: the "courageously gay" one has to be Alex, right?

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

Eh, I don't appreciate George really. He's just some guy, and not that interesting a one. The only card I feel I'm supposed to be reacting to is the sympathy one so far, and I need more than that to appreciate. Especially since I think we're supposed to be appreciating him mate-wise. Otherwise why make it a girl/woman thing?

About Alex and the courageously gay -- I think that will make me queasy. I hope it's not that, but I can't see any other way for it to go. They've been pretty explicit about everyone else, haven't they?

This is what I figure.

I don't actually care enough about George to think about him any more.

::sniff:: Some appreciation.

Okay, first half of Kidnapped is watched. Now I'm watching America's Sweethearts. Call me crazy, but I didn't hate it. Plus, Sethulah.

God, my shoulders are tense.

I would appreciate George if he lived in my house and would let me whine to him about men.

I saw America's Sweethearts in the theater. I think I thought it was bad, but I didn't hate it.

I am watching King Cobra, it looks like. I just finished watching Python vs. Cobra. Before that it was prehistoric sharks.

Well, watch is probably too strong a word, but that is what has been on the TV. I have no explanation, really.

I had a bunch of pomegranate seeds a while ago, and they were sooooo gooood. I used the underwater method for extracting the seeds as recommended by someone here, and it worked like a dream. (The pomegranate was underwater; I was not.)

Last, and most important - I would like you all to stop fainting.

No, really. I mean it.

Seriously?
