That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Careful, I edited to put the ME shows back in. I think I must've selectively blocked out their Fox-iness to ease the pain.

Behind Firefly, with Wonderfalls and The Inside all bunched up, then Tick. Arrested Development would be next.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I was given tapes with Profit on it, and I'm afraid I couldn't stand it. Kudos for being edgy and completely unexpected for broacast TV, but when I'm looking at the cast of characters and thinking, "I hope you *all* fall down an elevator shaft", it's not the show for me. I can accept bad in my characters, but sleazily venal bad or "pity me because I was abused and am now amoral" bad doesn't do it for me.

Heh. That's *exactly* how I felt about The Inside.

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

I had a weird conversation with one of my paralegals last week about what we drink in bars, and completely unsurprisingly my paras just brought me a bottle of vodka! So adorable! (Although my idea for a bottle gin inspired by the same convo is probably out.) And it will join that other bottle of vodka that's been in my freezer for three years, but still! So cute!

HA! Steph is so me. I realized that it was so very much Not For Me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is cute. Did I tell you people about how I offered to bring the vodka bottle that had been in MY freezer for three years to a party, but when I pulled it out, it was way more empty than I anticipated. Oops. Luckily, it was a small party, and I was not the only source of booze.

I survived the holiday luncheon. Mostly. I had to make a lot of small talk, shake a lot of hands, and help brainstorm stocking stuffer ideas for some guy's wife.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

If you have a frost-free refrigerator and an imperfect seal it will drink your vodka.

I think in my case, it was actually me. It had been three years. Even the occasional drink over three years adds up.

If you have a frost-free refrigerator and an imperfect seal it will drink your vodka.

And then the seal has to go to AA and confess his imperfections.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And then the seal has to go to AA and confess his imperfections.

Only then will the seal be able to balance a beach ball on its nose.
