Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay Matilda pix!!

I don't have any toys in my office. What I do have still up on the wall is a picture drawn by my predecessor's son. It just seems weird to tear it off and throw it away!

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

You say that...but I suspect I stumbled onto a picture of your spare room on the internet.

Pfffttt. My one pony is the bestest ever.

Do you think this [link] is the shirtwaist dress I've been looking for? (Not very hard, I admit.)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Well, if it wasn't important enough for your predecessor to take it, I don't think there'd be anything wrong with removing it.

Unless it's really cool picture.

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

That looks like Bev's dress in the Purple Haze episode of Eureka. Or not. I wouldn't spend $138 on a dress with no photo.

I know you're right. OK, I'll do it!

Yeah, there is that. And I don't see any info on the website about returns, so I'm assuming I'd pay for shipping twice if I don't want it. Eh.

How's the thunderstorm going, sarameg (and other folks in that area)?

I drove into the bowels of hell. Seriously dark and bad visibility. holy typos batman! But it is just a drizzle now. Heard there were some tornados.

I liked Ugly Betty. There were spots with rough transitions (to me) and the concept makes me run to the hall, but all told, I'll watch again next week. Where do I know the boss guy from? Also, how much did I laugh that Salma Hayek cast herself in a bad telenovela? So much!

I liked it too, but Gina Gershorn as Fabia was horrendous. And I hope to G*d that using "Suddenly I See" (which was also used in The Devil Wears Prada) was done with tongue in cheek.

Sara, The casting director must have been from the OC because the son of Kiki's dad was the jerky Dean of Discipline that kicked out Ryan in Season 2. (Was that season 2?) He was a blond in the OC.
