The loaner cat is named Star, but I'm referring to her as Asterisk for now. :-)
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

HAPPY KPRINKLE!!!
Merry Christmas!
Happy Channukah!
and last but not least Merry Channumas and Happy Christmukah.
Church two days in a row is not so normal. We did presents last night as well as big turkey dinner. Today has been snacking and sitting and knitting and getting my parents' computer set up to deal with 2 iPods. Now more family is over to visit and we are being silly. Tomorrow I learn to use my new serger and then go SHOPPING!

Went to the new-and-improved eerily-empty Century City mall.
Because some of the big convention hotels are nearby, I occasionall find myself sitting at the outdoor tables at this mall, drinking coffee, reading, and avoiding academics. Over the years, the place has become kind of a touchstone for me. I sit there drinking coffee and thinking 'Huh, here I am again,' kind of the way that I do with certain neighborhoods in New York or public squares in Europe. I feel kind of foolish about it--I mean, it's a stupid mall, not the Piazza Navona for heaven's sake, but you can't control which places become meaningful to you over time. I was happy that they decided to spruce it up last year.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
We had the Yule log on this morning. It was surprisingly pleasant.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I talked to my folks and my sister in japan- I forgot to tell about my new t-shirt that says " radical militant librarian at your service" how I wishI could wear it to work.

I don't think I can be entertaining. Unless folding laundry is entertaining.

I watched a little Yule log last night. Now I'm watching a history channel special on Cereal.

-t, if it was my laundry you were folding I would be very entertained.
