Oh! It's Matilda day. Happy Matilda Day, everyone! That's a much happier thought. Mmmm. Mental images of pics of Matilda and Emmett together definitely make everything better.
Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
is it my imagination, or is there a lot of cool folks from other shows in Bionic Woman?
Two from BSG and, I think that was Badger from Firefly in prison.

Also from BSG. Heh.
So I'm working away on my manuscript. A colonel is flattering his commanding officer a bit, talking about the utter success of their most recent action.
He called it "a glorious battle."
In my mind's eye, my characters instantly morphed from humans in the elegant officers' uniforms of 200 years ago, developing ridged foreheads and growing long, long hair. Their discreet glasses of claret disappeared, replaced with great goblets of blood wine. My colonel's concern that the general would give him a stern tongue-lashing upon learning he allowed an important enemy leader to slip through his fingers became shame and terror that his fearsome commander would declare him without honor and kill him where he stood.
So. Humans cannot fight glorious battles. The very phrase transforms them into Klingons.
Omnis, tell them you fixed the "problem" and then don't.I'm tempted to. Except the last part of the new "Wireless internet policy" says violating the terms of it is grounds for immediate dismissal. Uggg.
Oh yes. I finished the Campaign and now I'm upping the difficulty level and going back around again.O dear god! I played two hours before I was tired (started at 10pm). I got as far as blowing the ops center. dunno how deep that is. I'm guessing not too far. I didn't die ONCE (ok, except for the time I was digging for ammo in the crashed transport, and slipped out and drown... but that doesn't count).
Have we mentioned Pete's, er, obsessive nature when it comes to video games?um. Ya think?! And, if I recall, works from home. So easily tempted to play all day. I can't complain, I had time to play a bit. If only I could lend some sleep to ND. I'm worried for him. I think when Halloween thing is up, he'll sleep for 3 days straight (except to feed the kitties when they nibble his nose).
Ha. This was just on the news: [link]
off to swap laundries on the roof. Two loads done, one to go. since this shit isn't in my apartment, shouldn't I be getting sex everyday? (my logic confounds even me sometimes).

Pretty much. Next stop on the train will be blood wine and commenting on what a lovely day to die it is.

The part was well written and played by a wonderful actor. Seeing a Joss-related actor doing well elsewhere always makes me very happy.
And I'm off to bed.

And a reasonably nice human. Mark Sheppard came out unpaid to Flan B (as did others, let it be said). When asked why, his reply was, "Where else would I be?" That's certainly a vote for him as Good People in my book.
Bonjour Bitches! Beaucoup de vin et fromage for you. Or for me, anyway!
I have safely arrived in France, and have caught up on hundreds of messages.
Happy First Birthday to Matilda, Congratulations to sj and TCG on their engagement, Congratulations school peeps on your fantastic grades, and good luck to P-C on surviving mom visit discussion and omins for annoying management decisions.
Now, does the hivemind know of a good way to get shampoo smell off books? It seems I was overly stupid and didn't put shampoo in a special bag and now it is everywhere.
