I am a perfectly capable and canny driver, and I am shocked that you would imply otherwise.

SA, darling, of course you are a perfectly capable and canny driver. You just have a warp drive. Also, the ability to maneuver tricky mountainous terrain while simultaneously composing and text-messaging dirty limericks about PADDYWHACK. If that's not capability, I don't know what is.

I got to dance to "I Want Candy" with Laura Shapiro. Who JZ kept calling, "My best director EVAH!" because (apparently) Laura was/is a theatrical director and JZ was in a play directed by Laura.

Watching Laura Shapiro dance to "I Want Candy" was one of the highlights of prom for me. There was some serious joy there.

Damn! Sports Night! That was the other DVD set I planned to buy.

Fay, if you EVER have Sports Night needs, just come to me. Just ask Kate P. I go to great lengths for that show.

In Ick news, I woke up fever-free. Yay! Which means I came into work. Boo! I still can't breathe, and Chloraseptic is my best friend, but I feel light years better. (Actually, I woke up and took my temp and it was 97.1, confirming my suspicions that I go into stasis during the night.)

Don't worry, Pete, that was mostly joking anyway.

Lordy, I feel like I'm just beginning to come out of my coma. Haven't been this gronkified in a while. Jesus.

Hell yes.

Oh, shit, I forgot to put in my post the part where you have awesome hair. I'll go do that right now because I doubt many people have read it yet.

Honestly, that blows me away. I have never, even for a moment, thought of my hair as approaching anything near the level of awesome. My hair and I mutually agree to coexist, and that works for us. So thank you!

As I mention, I basically love your entire look. The full amyth aesthetic.

Seconded!

Loving the pics of everyone. Tom Scola and Fay, in particular, took some amazing pictures.

Everyone's pics are marvelous, a lovely way to hang onto all the foamy and funny and snark. Fay's, however, are made golden by her captioning. Curses! Someone who's seen behind me affable facade!

Pretty, pretty people. Where peeps go? (snif)

Also? The whole "how you pronounce amyth and amych" discussion? I have no rationale for my "ammitch" preference, but my pronunciation of amyth is simply short for amethyst.

I pronounce it 'ammitch'. Because that's what it looks like. And 'ammith'. Ditto. .

To me, words ending in ch (but not tch), look like transliterated Hebrew. So that's how I pronounce Amych.
