It's totally in character for me to space like that (I really shouldn't leave the kitchen when cooking), but usually I get warned sooner!
Given that this is how I started my recent fire, I'm hugging my smoke detector tightly. I just have it on a bookshelf almost at the ceiling but not on the bracket due to the twitchy. That way I can move it to the floor when it goes off while I am cooking and move it back. Taking the battery out has led me down the path to sometimes forgetting to replace it.
Last week's
Waking the Dead
is disturbing me. The
aquakiller
is hot. I mean, it is disturbing me for a lot of reasons but those I expect.
Bonus
Houseses
tonight. I haven't seen the first either.
You're writing interesting shit, Allyson.
It never cease to infuriate me that I live in a society in which an something like the Violence Against Women Act needs exist. Goddamned stupid humans.
I had a candle incident a while ago and I smelled the smoke and had the fire extinguished before the smoke alarm went off. Functionally, I have a steam alarm.
Bradley Cooper is headed to Broadway. [link]
If a movie is ever made of Devil In The White City, Mark Sheppard should play HH Holmes.

Not as useful. Get a new detector. I will happily relink the one I pimped last night. I don't like the idea of Buffistas flambe.
No need to re-link. It's interesting that the hush button nearly doubles the price on those smoke detectors.
Write, Allyson. Write like the wind.
Did anyone else watch the pilot of Emily's Reasons Why Not tonight? I did. I don't know why, possibly just for Heather Graham, but I digress... This not even subtle ripoff of Sex in the City was not only not at all funny, nothing in the show -- not a single line, or joke, or bit of action -- came even remotely close to pinging my funny detector. It was easily the least funny or interesting show I've ever seen. After the first five minutes, I decided I had to watch the whole thing, just to see if it could sustain that level of not funny. It did. I hope this show dies very quickly. Possibly even before another episode airs.
Apoplectic is a word, right?
Apoplectic is a cromulent word. With words like that you'll be done in no time.
Cass, have you seen Ultraviolet? The Brit vampire series starring Cmdr. Norrington? Er, Jack Davenport? And Idris Elba? The Waking the Dead aquakiller is in that, too. Nummy.

I'm a little obsess-y. Does it show? I was surprised at how inexpensive my detector was when I froogled it. I'd pay double for a hush botton.
Cass, have you seen Ultraviolet?
I have not. But I will find it and watch it. Oh yes I will. Mmmm, nummies...
edit: Added it to my queue. Thanks for the rec! Now to move it up in the order...
