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

I stumbled onto the blog of the guy who played Shrimp Boy, and he called Thief cancelled. The reason I ask about S2 is that it does seem very neat and tidy where it left off, even more so than a Minear episode 13.

I'm kinda on the side of the buffet restaurant in that one, LeN.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I've been to rbuffets that did that. It makes you think a little more about what you put on your plate. I fetl uncomfortable , however, like someone was watching me. We never went back. I have to ay I don't tend to waste food anyway, but I think a litte more now.

Our wings are not tired.

I hate wasting food. This keeps me away from buffets with the kids. If they don't finish what they put on their plates they don't get to go back for anything else. I'm a real bitch about it. I try and teach them to just take a tiny bit if they haven't tasted it before. We don't go very often because I find it stressful. Also DH overeats!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The menu is making me hungry and I just ate breakfast! I didn't look to see where it actually was, though. Is it somewhere easy to get to from the hotel during the F2F? I think I might like to try it.

Not so much, unfortunately; it's in Menlo Park, which is south of me. Definitely need a car for it.

I'm pretty crap at buffets--I have a small appetite where baked goods aren't concerned. And I feel very self-conscious if I go for a second helping with much stuff left on the first plate. Get the same stuff that I left behind? Dude, it's not your house. It's a place of business. Behave.

I don't go to buffets often (don't like the food at most of them unless I am in Vegas), but when I do, I tend to take very small amounts of several different things at first. If I don't like it, then I don't feel bad leaving a miniscule amount behind, and if I do and am still hungry, I can get more.

That reminds me, there is a Pan-Asian all you can eat place just down the road from me that is supposed to be decent. I should see if I can organize an outing there.

I actually like the way the owner put it. "all you can eat" not "all you can waste".

I just managed to rip a chunk of skin off my left index finger.

Kind of wish I hadn't done that. It doesn't hurt much, but it is bleeding like a mofo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I stumbled onto the blog of the guy who played Shrimp Boy, and he called Thief cancelled.

That's such a bummer! When I was trying to figure out what was up with the finale, I did see that the first season order was just the 6 episodes, and they did wrap up beautifully, but I can imagine a next episode -- more of the same, with added lam!

Buffets kind of freak me out.
