This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

heh, now I'm trying to figure out what Calloway Square could be... a maligning of a square I'd know or one of those tiny memorial squares that are all over town.

I only ask because where I work deals with scientific conferences (I'm actually in Cambridge, where Harvard and MIT are).

Yeah, it mystified my parents too, and dad was at Harvard for a couple years. Basically, I think it was a cancer conference, perhaps sponsored by a pharma.

I've liked Val Kilmer since I saw him on some talk show and he was a complete goofball. The only part I remember now is that he claimed that Jack Black was ripping him off. Oh, and that it made me think that I'd like to watch Kilmer and Boreanaz have a conversation, if that gives you any idea.

(And now that I've read that article: Kilmer & Boreanaz could have a long talk about socks!)

If I only had a brain...

My son was doing actual science for his science fair project today. Whoo-hoo.

He's going to be using Snell's Law to calculate the speed of light in jello. (using a laser level and a protractor to measure refraction.)

Today he was shining the laser through various objects to see how much the light diffracted. Then he wrote all his expectations down and what actually happened. He and his friend were working hard to align everything and put a piece of cardboard to catch the beam.

Coolness.

Our wings are not tired

It's a completely beautiful day out here today and I'm right by the beach. Of course, I'm also in a big black box working on a show. This is not right.

Trust my rage

I had such a crush on Val Kilmer in his early years, before Top Gun. Real Genius was all it took.

I loved Real Genius. I stuck with physics and higher math *way* longer than I should have because I thought it would eventually be cool. Differential equations finally broke me.

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

There's going to be krav on Gilmore Girls.

I'm not sure if they'll namecheck it, but someone was training two people from the show today for a fight scene. No idea who the people were.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Huh -- I wonder who it could be. There are only 2 people I can think of who might want to beat each other up, and 1 was a guest star who I don't think is coming back.

If Rory has to krav someone, I will laugh and laugh.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I'm going with Paris and our favorite short person.
