Thanks Guys. Sam the dog definitely did have a good run, but yeah, I think my parents are having a hard time with it.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

I'm sorry, Lee. It's so hard.
And yes, I'm actually up at 1 am because I'm giving notice tomorrow and I can't sleep! Argh!

Sorry, Consuela. If it's any consolation, they're all adults and should be inured to disappointment by now.
Also, if they have any grace at all, they will be happy for you that you are pursuing new opportunities, et cetera. If they don't, then screw 'em.
(When I'm up early on a holiday morning, all achy & stuff, I tend to give into my practical/ruthless side, oh yes.)

My neighbors (the formerly not-evil frat boys next door, who may be turning evil) watched 24 at approximately 10,000 decibels last night. It was as if the TV was not only in my room, or in bed with me, but actually in my head.
But they did turn it down to a reasonable roar after mr. flea went over to ask them to.
(Yes, I was in bed at 8:15. With a recalcitrant baby.)

I'm sorry about the pup, Lee.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
So Very Sleepy...

I slept from 8:30 Pm to ~5:30 AM and yet I'm still somewhat groggy now. Is there such a thing as January Sleepy Sickness?

I think that's just what January is all about, Theo. Why can't we hibernate is what I want to know.

Question of the morning (not to the reference inbox, but the "funny questions" inbox:
Imagine you are standing in the middle of a field. Surrounding you are an infinite number of children that are trying to attack you. Their goal is to kill you, and they have three hours to do it. Obviously, if these were 6 mo old infants you'd be able to fend them off for the 3 hours and survive, but if they're an infinite number of 10 year olds, they're taking you down. My question is at what age would you not be able to fend them off for the three hours, resulting in your death?
The questioner doesn't mention whether or not the children are armed. But based on my experience, I think 3 year olds could kill you. Maybe not 2 year olds.

I think the question is, are they infant cheetahs? And do I get a squash racket?
