No problem. We need our Tim.

So, is Studio 60 out even faster than anticipated? It's not on the TV schedule tonight.

I must say it makes me a little sad. But just a little, I think.

Honestly, I just don't answer the phone until after 9. If it is someone who knows me, they've been told to start talking, cause then I'll pick up (since I don't have caller id.)

I don't answer my phone on weekends. People either know to call my cell or talk to the machine.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's not on the TV schedule tonight.

That's been planned for a while.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Ailleann, they knocked S60 to give that hour a bump in ratings by showing Friday Night Lights, which is a bit of a surprising hit and a way for new watchers to get hooked on it. It's not definitively cancelled. At least, not yet.

That doesn't surprise me.

Frankly, that's the first time I've looked at tv listings in probably a month.

Always Anti-fascist!

I hate to see it go...not quite in the "Brilliant but Cancelled" way like SN, or The Job, but...it's too bad.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Uh, for the slow on the uptake, where did the "I'M IN YUR NOUN, VERBING YUR NOUN" phrasing come from. I saw it on those cat photos posted a while back, and Two Lumps did a strip using it about a month back. Help?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It evolved from the long weird lineage of All Your Base. I, um, saw something about it a few days ago on some blog or other.

Cute nephew post alert!

So they've told D about the pregnancy. He's really thrilled with the whole concept of a baby and of being a brother. Lots of his friends have siblings, and one just had one recently, so it's not a foreign concept.

My SIL works at the same Petite Acadamie that D attends. She's picking him up from his class and one of the other moms comes in with a teeny newborn. D is fawns all over it. Then asks SIL "Is this our baby? We can take it home now?" SIL explained she has to get fat first.

So: clear on the concept, not so much on the execution. I forsee the next few months filled with "Where's our baby? Why isn't it here yet?"
