Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

I'm afraid my beloved CSI is getting a bit tatty around the edges.

This, Beej. And the descriptions of the Daltry ep are not improving my mood or opinion about the current season. I wonder if Bill Peterson is unhappy about it, too. He's consistently been one of the big champions of the show, and it's use of (mostly) sound science. He was pretty unhappy about the spinoffs (they diluted the uniqueness of the show), so I can't imagine he's happy about the show going off the rails.

He probably still likes the paychecks, though.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Isn't Liev Schreiber doing episodes in the latter part of the season in Bill Peterson's place?

Oooh! I hadn't heard that, bon. I'll be interested to see those, as I like Liev Schriber, but I suspect the show will never again be what it once was.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's what I read, bon.

37 feels too fucking old to have those snitty fights with freaking parents.

Seriously, my mother's 61 and still doing it.

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

I'm fucking old, you know? Bear with me, especially if you're older than me. 37 feels too fucking old to have those snitty fights with freaking parents.

I feel the same way, ita, once you add four years. I know my mother isn't going to change, and what things are likely to set her off, and yet, I always end up arguing with her.

My comment re: CSI - Roger Daltry canna do accents, poor dear .

What is even happening?

Add two to ita, and subtract two from Lee, and it's the same here, too. What kills me is that my mother and her mother did not get on each others' nerves, so I always feel at fault.

Any puzzle people around? I'm nearly done -- but any hints for the four surrounding cocaine -- between ecstasy and opium ?

Also for the one between operating system and boot , and the two between Windows and dragons ?

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

Newsflash: Diane Farr's hands still hover over her "hidden" bump.
