I'M ALL DONE!!
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
In a muffin pan is the only way I've ever made Yorkshire pudding. Just be careful pulling the pan out of the oven, because it is easy to underestimate the height of the puddings and decapitate them upon pulling them out. (Because they involve hot fat, they're also just meant to be handled caefully in general.)
Basically, yeah, it's a eggy, liquidy batter poured over portions of hot beast-fat, that go in the oven and suddenly they balloon and are full of greasy crusty eggy goodness. (They're much denser and more nutritious than regular pastries.)

What is even happening?
Thank you, Nutty.
I'd been talking to a friend (in England) about them, but then didn't hear back for a while, and assumed she was offline for the night. She's since written back, and said pretty much the same thing. Thanks for the caution on removing them from the oven. I'm pretty sure that's something I would have had to learn the hard way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I should pack. I should also shower. Today is very stressful.

I know there's something I'm forgetting to do, but I just had lunch with someone who's not planning on finishing his shopping until tomorrow (he just started today), so I feel very ahead of at least one curve to hand.

My brother didn't buy my mom a new DVD player for Xmas. Which is vexing, since I got her DVDs. So I'm going to get her a cheapo model from Circuit City. I'm probably better off going late-ish tonight than tomorrow morning, right?
I think that, at this time of year, stores should have live traffic cameras.

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
Bought my coffee lovin' brother in law half pound of blue mountain for Christmas.
