The LA Times is saying that the deal is done.
It's all so odd.
We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Isn't it, Kristen? I've gotten so used to the strike, I'm not sure how to adjust after it's over.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
I'm not sure it is over. There seems to be this false frenetic optimism about it that doesn't ring true to me. Or I am just too cranky to buy into it. I don't know.

I'm just skeptical of the news media getting an announcment of a legitimate done deal before, say, the actual WGA members that post here.

My experience in unions has been that everyone else always knew everything way before I did.

Yeah, it's not officially over yet. But the entire world seems intent on reporting it is. Hence the oddness.

Oh, I'm sure it will be in the press before the membership gets notified. That's the way things seem to be done. But I'd expect there would be an official statement to the press by both sides once there's a deal, instead of "unofficial sources close to..."

It is odd. I'm going to cross fingers and toes that it's true (and that the deal is good), though.

I really do hope it's true. I've actually found myself watching One Tree Hill the past two weeks. See what the strike has driven me to?
Oh and you know, my friends and associates would be able to go back to work and all that, too. There's that.

So, either the strike has to end or we need to stage an intervention for you?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
