'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

S1 ( Dark Angel ) really is pretty dreadful, and if you try watching it first, you'll give up. Whereas if you start with S2, you've got plentiful reason to go on, and then if you really want, you can just acquire the few Acklesriffic episodes of S1 and do a lot of FFing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

megan, not that it's much comfort, but bats can get in via any crack or space that's small enough for a mouse. At this time of year they're looking for warm, safe winter roosts where people don't run around screaming with blankets over their heads. Opening a couple windows to let it find its way out is the best course....

Bizarrely, that is comforting. At least it hasn't been there for weeks and weeks. Maybe it came in with the mouse and is wondering where its friend went. I've left open the storm doors and will check tomorrow to see if it has gone. Not tonight. Did I mention I was in the middle of reading The Historian? Not a time you want to start seeing bats!

The Good about S1:

  • Max and Logan are not yet eyerollingly starcrossed.
  • Original Cindy gets more play.
  • Dude, I'm a sucker for Jam Pony, and it's pretty spiffy in both seasons.
  • Pollo Loco. See also: Ackles, J.

The Bad about S1:

  • Zack.
  • Max going into heat.
  • Did I mention Zack?
  • Because I really don't care for Zack.

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

Depends on if you like them.

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

officially freaking out has begun. well, begun like 4 hours ago.

I have completed the paint stripping of the outside of the fixtures in the bathroom. I did 6 applications of stripper this weekend - at least 11 layers of paint on there. The insides are less than half done, but hopefully little hands will not go in there.

My bedroom is clean. The bags are packed, but I need to do a checksheet. And I need to make mac's bed and change the sheets on mine.

27 hours until departure.

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

I know telling you not to freak out is pointless, but
a) YAY!!!!
b) Try to sleep and eat in that 27 hours, okay, and
c) WOOHOO!!

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

At least eat and be sure you can sleep on the flight.

Also? YAY!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wheeee!!! Let me know if you need anything last-minute.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Note to producers of TAR: STOP matching the nonelims with the yields already!!! Why even HAVE the yield if there's no risk of being eliminated because of it?

That said, I'm glad the blondes stayed in, because except for this leg, they've been consistently the best racers in the pack. All the other teams with their "I hate the way the barbies play this game! Let's use them for information and follow them around!" can bite me.
