Cupcakes will get you on a plane, but won't get Tim on the 5.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I kind of like the idea of Tim not being home, because, in my mind at least, that means he may be off writing and scheming and what have you for a new show or a movie, or some other such wonderful thing.
Of course, I may be biased, since I'm not within easy driving distance. Or any driving distance for that matter.
Happy (belated in Iowa, but not here) Birthday, Monique!
New anything! More Tim please! I'd give a flourless chocolate cake for Drive comix.
I'm going to make my own cupcakes. And I'm not sharing.
Except with Monique. But only if she comes to visit.
Monique, happy belated birthday to you!
Happy belated birthday, Monique!!!
Aww, thanks everyone. Really wasn't trying to grandstand. 'Twas just trying to give Allyson a hard time. As is my way.
And we love you for that, but not only for that.
Happy (belated) Birthday Monique!!!! May all your cupcakes be yummy.
In lieu of any Tim news of the professional sort:
I went to Tim's "house" today. What's left of it. I think the only rooms that still exist as I remember are the garage and his office. It's a total construction zone, where you have to walk across planks to get to each room, else fall into the basement. There's a door way up on the second floor that leads straight out to a two story drop onto some cement blocks. We hung out on the "roof" which is actually a mass of plywood with things like, "closet" and and "bedroom" written across it.
His bedroom leads to the tower, where he can presumably go Lee Harvey Oswald on any guests he invites over for a pool party.
And the movie theater is HUGE with a ticket counter, concession stand, marquee, and its own bathroom and phone booth.
I said, "this is what money is for."
He said, "Exactly. And you know, helping the poor."
The beagles are still awfully cute.
So is Tim.
