Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Thank you all. I will be starting back on the dreaded game soon. BE WARNED!

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

Yes, msbelle. I'm not looking forward to the travel, but I'm hoping the time there will be peaceful.

And then I remember that the holidays always have arguments, and I sigh.

I will hide if I have to. I'm already thisclose to being a shutin anyway. I can do that on vacation too.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

This is a food holiday. the only arguement should be about who gets the last piece of pie.

the dreaded game crashes this computer.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

a chemical plant one town over blew up; it was so loud I thought part of the house I was in had collapsed

Wow, you could hear that? I saw the coverage in the paper and it was -- freaky. There's a retirement home for the deaf there, and of course they couldn't hear it, but they sure as hell felt it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

msbelle, that's GREAT news about Mac! I'm so excited for you.

I've had to put the game aside--DH's serious sinus infection has kept him down and I've been getting some serious double-overtime with the babies. I wonder if I can walk away with it unfinished. I probably should, considering I've got to go to the grocery, brine a turkey and get ready to go to the outin-laws tomorrow morning.

I'm three episodes behind on Heroes, two and a half episodes behind on Veronica Mars.

Oh, and I need to clean my house before Friday for Thanksgiving guests.

A resounding cheer for msbelle & mac! Best possible kind of Thanksgiving news ever. OK, a day early, but I'm gonna give my thanks to bureaucracies working for the people.

I'm surrounded by three pies. Ok, not surrounded, exactly...

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I need it to be 6 so I can head up to Hot Springs. Or, it can stay 10 and they can let me go anyway.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, msbelle!!!!!! That's wonderful!!

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

I'm surrounded by three pies.
Best visual of the day.
