Aaaaand, now the snow has started up again so presumably we'll be alowed to go home when it's nice and thick.
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…

What is even happening?
You've got snow, and it was 65ish around Boston, today. Craxy.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I never even considered changing my name - not for any fight-the-patriarchy reasons, but because it just feels like me and his name (or anyone else's) doesn't. I'm terribly attached to the dude, but I really don't have a significant relationship with the sequence of letters...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
For a long time, I said I'd change my name to get a better one, but now I think it's too late, and I'm keeping what I've got.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Smith College boasts the Helen Hills Hills Chapel (oft called the Helen Hills Hills Chapel Chapel), so named because a nice young lady named Helen Hills got married to her first cousin, whose last name was also Hills.
Which, I guess using the same name twice shows that she also kept her own name, and people wouldn't be able to assume that she was using his name rather than her own. But -- Hills Hills! yeesh.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I got married before I had much of a professional history, to a man whose name is at the top of the alphabet, five letters, spelled phonetically. Changing was pretty much a no-brainer. :)

Oh. My. God. Now it's to much for us to go. I swear I almost hope I have a wreck just to show them.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Daisy, are they truly that indecisive, or just idiotic?
