Ok, I just emailed back that I can't go because I have no one to watch my cat (I even checked with 2 friends). So I have decided to go IF she offers to let me bring the cat.
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Am sad about Kitchen Confidential.
WRT Alias, Sumi, I agree with you 100% about both the joy of seeing Amy Acker as an assassin and the fact that she's Rachel's Anna Espinosa. I was also a little heartbroken to see Syd playing the Vaughn tapes.
Also, even though I hate the fact that Vaughn is gone I think it makes much more gut wrenching watching for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Was it just me, or did that not sound like Vartan's voice on the tapes?

Art Crawl!!!
It sounded like Vartan to me. . . perhaps I should rewatch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, I have this group assignment due today, and as a "special prize" for the group that does the best job, the professor said he'd take them to dinner. One of my group-mates is all about winning, but honestly? The professor creeps me out a little, and I have no interest in going to dinner with him. Oy. I hate non-traditional rewards.

At least it would be a group dinner and not one-to-one.

No way would I go if it were one-on-one. shudder

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I don't hang out in fanfic circles- are there a lot of guys as idiotic as this woman describes?

I'm having a recently-picked locally-grown Baldwin apple for lunch, with an Iggy's French Roll as well. God, I'm going to miss the twice a week Farmer's Market in the Square.

I haven't run across them in fanfic (I'm only halfway into that loop anyway), but I've met some of that ilk at cons.
Sometimes, it's just a quasi-aggrieved joke, like, "Wow, [in this panel on female fantasy authors] I'm the only guy in the room! Guess I'm representing the other half of the species!"
(I heard something of this ilk at Noreascon 4; of course, I was also sitting next to a linebacker-size male physicist [orzelc on LJ, for those interested], who was honestly interested in the topic and as annoyed at the comment as I was.)
