This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Right now, though? No pain, and no anxiety attach hangover.

That's FANTASTIC. Get some rest!

I have to soft or hard reset an average of once a day.

Is this what you do when the DVR seizes up? How do you do this without resorting to unplugging it?

Hold down the power button on the front of the unit for a few seconds.

Hmm. I don't think there is one, but I'll have to take a closer look.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Punishingly Intricate

So far I love the DVR I got from DirectTV. It's all logical and easy-to-use and stuff. Crazy!!!

GC's new 'do = super hot!

Cashmere learning to surf = super cool!

I need to memorize the lyrics to 99 Red Balloons today and figure out how to get a bunch of helium-fillled red balloons by 5 tomorrow when I have ZERO free time.

oh and do my job etc.

Just pretend you're singing the German version and sing "blah blah blah" instead of the lyrics.

It's for a karaoke competition so the lyrics are actually displayed on a monitor but there's so much more time for showboating if you learn the actual lyrics! And showboating is what wins prizes!!!

I thought I might have to do the song in German which would have been funnier but much more stressful.

Luftbalons!

That's the only word I can ever catch in the German version, but I sing it hard.
