Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

I do know what you mean about accepting. The little stuff mostly slides. It was just after years of dad and mom claiming he couldn't cook (dude, he burnt her 35th birthday cake!) he went on sabbatical and since we weren't with him during the week, he had to cook. So it was spaghetti and burritos or and salad,(hell, I cooked that for us starting at 8ish because mom had class) but he did just fine.

So when I came home my freshman year of college, and mom was out of town, when I was asked to make sure dad got fed because "he can't cook", I just laughed. He got quite inventive. It was good. I still ended up paying the mortgage, because ...he didn't do the finances. @@

Huh. Didn't know this still annoyed me about my relations.

Art Crawl!!!

c.s.i. - you know it took me all of last week and half of this week to figure out that Daniel Bess played Officer Bell.

I keep expecting somebody in the show to make a comment about Nick's mustache. Or did I miss it?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

so this year for xmas -

no shopping at Sony

and Target was all ready off my list because of this:

Also, I'm now regarding Target with the slightly narrowed eyes of beady suspicion, owing to the fact that it's one of the corporations that allows its pharmacists to opt out of dispensing Plan B for religious reasons.

sadly, I am missing Target more

sumi, there was a point when Warrick called him Mustache Boy last week.

Blerg. Occasionally, my brother gets sufficiently sleep depped or drunk and sends me really personal poetry he writes. Can't say how good it is, but it is powerful in the insights it gives me to my brother. The things he normally won't say (he's happygolucky.) The latest... well, the latest worries me over a concern that's been shoved to the back of my head for a while. He's metaphorical enough, I could be interpretting wrong, but I just don't know. I hope it isn't what I think.

How do you talk about the things someone won't talk about?

Are you ready to be strong?

I think boy tiaras should be called tiaros.

That is all.

RIO!!

(that's the right response, huh? I'm rusty because you don't visit when I'm around enough!)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I love Maura Tierney's facial expressions.

Heh. HI RIO AGAIN!!! HOW ARE YOU?

Tierny does do some good ones. She was on Dana's Sports Night, right?
