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

Maybe it was the Percocet.

I have to say--both pain and narcotics make for a very chatty me. Different sorts of chatty, but still. From what I hear alcohol just makes me brash and belligerent. Which totally doesn't sound plausible. Li'l ole me?

Is there an actual matchmaker.com?

Online Dating, Singles, and Personals at Matchmaker.com. I wonder how much of an uptick in traffic (I'd say if at all, but I just went and looked them up, so at least one) the episode will result in.

Kinda random Fullmetal Alchemist question: I just finished disc 9, and I don't remember the name of the character-- Dr. Tucker or something whose face is on upside down. Where did he come from? I don't remember him from before.

Happy belated birthday to Nutty!

In other fun-videos-to-watch, there's this one of the late great Madeleine Kahn singing Sondheim. I have this on CD (the 1992 tribute concert at Carnegie Hall), and it's one of my favorite songs on the album.

For evocative titles (and speaking of Harlan Ellison), I always found his titles "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" and "'Repent, Harlequin!' Said the Tick-Tock Man" great titles.

Oooh, good choices.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I took a class from a guy who'd published a book of poetry called "The Stillness of the World Before Bach."

Still Monday. Still morning. Not happy.

Still morning.

Drown it in coffee until it dies.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm waiting for a conference call, but I'm also on vacation!! I still have some work to do, though.

Kinda random Fullmetal Alchemist question:

ita, Shou Tucker: [link]

The VMAs were terrible. I stayed up too late mocking them, ran into my boss on the bus, and then discovered just now that we're being moved to sub-basement 3 at the end of the week.

OMGWTFunderground?!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm happy for a Monday! The SO & I are leaving Right Now to go out to the land and meet our builder and the mason there. Whoot! Scary! Neither of us slept last night, but finally for a good reason.

(Sorry about them going all Milton on you, shrift.)

Thanks, shrift. I remember the character now, but I wonder if I skipped a disc, because I don't remember how he got that way.
