Frankenbuddha:
Despite Dork!Angel and Googoogahgah!Angel, it's always going to be a fact that Angel with a soul locked a bunch of humans in with a couple of vampires and let them get slaughtered. Damn, I miss my shows.
connie neil:
He has his foibles. He doesn't much like lawyers, and at the heart of him, he's not a very nice guy, especially when you fuck with him.
billytea:
As Buffy found out to her regret.

I've been riding English since getting back to it.
I grew up more Westen (for lessons) and bareback (what I ended up riding most of the time recreationally) but English seemed logical if I ever want to get back to the bareback.
Tried a hunt saddle last week which was waaaay better for the way I apparently ride. Felt a little like I was getting pitched forward today. It's this weird combination of total muscle memory and occasionally having no clue what I am doing. Posting thoughtfully combines the two.
sarameg:
I have a head cold. You know, one of those things where your soft palate (I think that's the term) feels swollen and one sinus is upset, but it manages to make you eyes water and the muscles in your neck hurt? yeah that.
I get on a plane tomorrow. To go infect relatives, apparently.

I happened across a misplaced apostrophe in a menu at a famous coffee shop in York the other day, and was all "Eeek! Do I get my pen out?" and Mum and WeeSister stopped me. This led to a discussion of punctuation, in which my sister put forward the suggestion that we should just get rid of apostrophes.
Captain Rational abandoned my tugboat at this point, and was eaten by sharks.

Yikes. I just told my Microsoft Money budget about the pay cut. It sent me a Howler.
Number Nattering turns to porn. Predictably.
ita:
25 is so ... boring. 17's wild, unpredictable and flexible. Okay, NSM with the flexible.
shrift:
Which is why we have flexible 17-year-olds.
ita:
In Michigan. In California we have flexible 18-year-olds.
libkitty:
I don't know about now, but a few years ago they had one of the best graphic novel library collections in the country, if not the best. I think others are starting to catch up.
Gandalfe:
I was going to ask how you would know that, but, as I typed your name, my fingers threw themselves into my nostrils and banged my head into my desk multiple times. Cause it's just that obvious.

ION, last night at a little after 9 I got a bewildered phone call from my father to say that he isn't quite sure what had happened, he is fairly certain that someone of his age was never meant to be the target of this and he doesn't know who else to talk to about it, but he's become totally addicted to Veronica Mars.
I assured him that he was not alone, which greatly relieved him.
I'm only on b.org enough to COMM people, apparently, but this was too good to be passed by.

I'm thinking of things to put down for 'interesting stuff about me. Things like "Once at a high school sports day, I managed to hit myself in the back of the head with a javelin" or "I once caught a pigeon with my bare hands" (released it unscathed, of course. Problem is, I keep veering off into stuff which I think is much more interesting. This could be a problem.
Her: This card says "The southern right whale has testicles that weigh half a ton and a twelve-foot long prehensile penis! That isn't about you!"
Me: I think you mean that you hope it isn't about me.

And also nice to see bt get his mojo back, too.
