I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

and it is lovely

Wonderful.

Now, of course, I'm jealous. It reminds me of the Saturday afternoon we spent at Allyson's place when I was her guest, and I liked it so very much, I want a second round. I'll even promise not to fall asleep while people are still laughing and talking, right in front of theit faces. [Edit: no, wait, that was Friday evening. No promises, then, just jealousy, for me.]

Is it OK to ask who else is there?

I probably shouldn't test that.

That's the wise and considerate choice.

I always wake up early on holiday, I don't know why.

T-Day is already looking up, I've connected with some good folks who can fit me in around their big table. Plus, there may be Scrabble!!1!

This just in: I suck at icing cakes.

Yay! Glad you found a place to go, Theo.

Yay, Theo! (Also, their gain, at least as much as yours).

I suck at icing cakes.

My mom always used to say that "in the stomach you can't feel that it doesn't look so pretty". I'm sure it's yummy.

What Nilly's mom says.

Good news Theo.

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

"in the stomach you can't feel that it doesn't look so pretty"

Which is a very good point. However, having someone say "That looks good! All your stuff tastes good, but this time it looks good too!" kinda stung. Kept feeding him, though.

The folks here are (in order of awakening): Kristen, me, Kat, lori, Polgara, Allyson and sarameg.

Now, if only someone could tell me how to use the coffee machine. These things stump me.

I'm okay with the cake looking a little fugly. In a way, it's kind of cute.

Okay, what kind of frikkin' horoscope is this:

You may be convinced that a certain course of action is correct, but even so it will pay you to wait a while before committing yourself one hundred per cent. Mercury, your ruler, remains retrograde until December 4th and some time on or around that date you will realize you have made a terrible mistake. Hopefully it won't be too late to change it.
