Mostly lurking...

Ahem. Testing, 1, 2, 3. Is this thing working?

ATTENTION ALL SOMERVILLIANS:

My parents are going away for a romantic getaway next weekend, and they have ordered me to have a party. So, here are the plans.

You (meaning all Somervillians, their SO’s and families) are invited to a Sunday Brunch at casa de bug on Sunday, February 16. Tentative time – eating at 2pm. Come at 1:30 pm to watch vw bug frantically and crazily put together the final touches on what should be a fabulous feast. Come at 1:45 to open the door yourself, ‘cause vw will be pulling her hair out with the final preparations at that point (don’t worry…that’s my favorite part of planning a party. I live for the adrenaline rush and the anticipation of everything being a flop, but somehow still turning out ok).

There will be waffles, eggs, bacon, breads, salads, pasta, yummy deserts, coffee, juices, etc. – much prepared with the Vegan in mind.

Expect to be introduced to (read jumped on, barked at and licked to death) my two sweet poopy dogs (no, that’s not a typo. That’s what I call them), Rachie and Toto. There will be plenty of food, much fun and no cleanup (for you). We can top off the afternoon with some Buffy Board Game, viewage of The Princess Bride or another movie, or just sit and chat. Whatever…it’s a flexible gathering.

I hope you all can make it. It should prove to be quite the event…I do about one of these a year, so you don’t want to miss it! You’ll never know when it will come around again :)

More details will be coming via e-mail.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

Cool! GenCon is in Indianapolis in July. Any Buffistas coming? I'd like to get together. Email me at profile addy.

I'll be happy to help with questions about the area too.

Months ago, Cindy kindly gave me permission to archive some of her essays on Souls, Buffy, and Other Jossverse Matters that she posted in the Buffy thread.

And I have finally gotten Off My Lazy Ass, and put it up.

The Wisdom of Cindy. Spoilers for what has aired in Season 7. Insightful, witty, and now archived for your pleasure.

Thanks, Cindy.

Punishingly Intricate

Hey Freaks & Geeks fans!

The producers of that fine, lamented show are having some trouble convince Dreamworks to release it on DVD. They are putting together a list of people who would be interested in buying DVDs of the series to show the studio that there is an audience for the product.

Go here:

I want my Freaks & Geeks DVDs

thanks!

LAistas:

The tapes went to a nice man named Greg who wants them for his beloved wife, who loves B&A, so she has something to do while watching the children. Good DH! Good DH!

In other news, why haven't you joined the new new LAistas list? Is it something I said?
