Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm going to pop in here to brag on my very successful day, diet-wise. Not only have I not eaten anything that wasn't on my menu for the day (including the hard candies at the receptionist's desk that I normally snag as I walk by), not only have I not had a Diet Coke, and instead have had 1 1/2 liters of water (so far), but I've worked out this morning, upping my number of reps to boot, and I went for a walk at 3:00 this afternoon!! Oh, and I ordered a swimsuit so I can start doing daily laps when they open the apartment complex's pool this summer.

It doesn't sound like much when it's all written out, but for me, it's a lot! I'm feeling very proud of myself.

Now back to your regular Golden Globes discussion.

ETA: X-post with Sheryl! Good for you on the treadmill--I'm hoping I can work my way up to 30 minutes uninterrupted in a month or two. My walk was only 15 minutes, and I had to stop a few times to catch my breath. But, it is cold outside, too (20 degrees).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Congrats, Kathy! That was indeed a successful day.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Wait...I knew I knew that name. Oh dear Lord, Kate. What have you done!?

Thanks, P-C. I've had it since...early Sci-Fi Season 2 of Who. The song has now become, like, the Companion anthem, or something.

In my head, HL's thanking of Stephen Fry was totally a "who else...let's look at the table!" thing, which I find humorous.

Go DietKathy! and TreadmillSheryl!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am incapable of taking care of myself. I give up. I can't even buy myself a latte and a macchiato (double) without trashing my car and my living room carpet.

Henceforth, I give myself over to...to...FUCK. Where is my knight in shining armour? Or at least my carpet cleaner, or perhaps an employer?

Did you spill your coffee, or did you park your car in the living room again?

I just watched Hugh Laurie's acceptance speech, and, gosh, if he didn't look scraggly like House, no one would believe it was him.

Robert Sean Leonard gave HL a reason to thank him? Please, Hugh, we shippers don't need more reasons.

FCM: knight in shining armour, carpet cleaner, employer

F: carpet cleaner--he may have to be doing things on that carpet, and he wants it clean
C: the knight--armor is a pain in the ass to keep clean, and I hate tripping over the stuff in the dark, though the cats do like sleeping in the helmets
M: employer--especially if you've got a kick-ass prenup.

C - carpet cleaner.

If I'm employed and fucking a knight in shining armor, I could give a damn about the carpets.

I'm with brenda. And the knight polishes his own crap.
