Where are my buffistas?

I'm watching Jane Eyre... and really wanting to break out my ancient copy an re-read worn passages that warped me for life. t edit: and dreading the St.John part of the tale. Man, that section annoyed me.

Kat, I can't really imagine, so you have my sentiments, vague as they are.

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

I can't decide what to wear to the party. Of course, I'm addressing that by dozing in front of the tennis.

I love dozing in front of tennis. The squeaks and the calls are like a lullaby. Some strange version of "You're safe now. Close your eyes."

Or I'm just really sleepy.

Lee, if you're around, I'm loving the humidifier. Thank you so much. It's so much quieter than my last one, and more customisable.

Which reminds me, time to refill and mist again.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Do all places have stories about, say, entire convents full of nuns praying for the team, or is that just in New England?

You managed to miss all of the stories about the Little Sisters of the Poor and the Saints?

Although from the game today, it's pretty clear that Jesus doesn't love them.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It's all the meditative repetition of the word "love."

This game is making me crazy.

What is even happening?

Jane Eyre is on Masterpiece Theater!

I was TiVoing it, but we had to stop the recording, because we want to catch BSG at 10, and Scott is watching the football game.

I see that other people love it. I'm just not ready for it. I think the realization that I was bigger than the woman who was 6 months pregnant just depressed me. Three of the women in class were due in the next 10 days though.

You have two babies in there, though. It's a whole different thing, where showing is concerned.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You managed to miss all of the stories about the Little Sisters of the Poor and the Saints?

Oh yeah, that would make sense, wouldn't it? I mostly don't pay attention to this kind of thing, so I only get it second-hand when it gets really crazy in Boston and even my mother knows what's going on.

Yes! Did we say what time? I should be good anytime up to about 4 as long as I remember to keep my damned phone on me.

Lee, if you're around, I'm loving the humidifier.

what kind of humidifier? ever since i've had to turn on my baseboard heater in my room, i've had a headache every day and i think it has everything to do with it. i've tried cheap-o humidifiers and they just don't help.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Heh. Apparently not all dogs puke when they see the Bible: [link]
