I told her that I am not eating or drinking anything at her funeral that did not come out of a sealed package.Heh. Yeah, I would do the same, in your shoes.
I think I have decided that I need to sleep.
x-post: Thanks, aurelia. Great minds, and all.
Xander: Am I right, Giles? Giles: I'm almost certain you're not. Though, to be fair, I haven't been
listening.

[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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Once is not too much to ask, erika.
Sleep well, Kristin. You'll get all the grading done in good time.
At least you didn't snort them.
I didn't. I'm not sure nobody did.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Got and backflung. Cashmere, you know the train goes right under the airport, right? It comes out near baggage claim. I'd come get you but I'm betting that's in the midst of getting people off to school/work time.
I know I'm missing stuff. I tried to catch up but I'm so tired these days I fell asleep at 1500 posts left to go. I am reading when I can and sending lots of vibes and yays, though.

Always Anti-fascist!
Yeah, that's it---The Body of An American. Real highlight of Season(Is it two or three?) Ray Cole's wake. The real producer died, so the mourning was real.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So I just finished Slings and Arrows.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Sigh. I meant to get to sleep. But my schedule has been getting all skewed (when I don't have set times I need to be awake, I always end up sleeping something like three AM until noon), and Exodus is on TV.
I don't even like this movie. It took a novel with a rather simplistic message to begin with a removed every tiny bit of nuance it had. Also, Paul Newman? Jill Haworth? Really? (There was just a scene were Paul Newman's character sneaks through an Arab neighborhood by simply putting on a kaffiyeh and "blending in." In the book, the character in that scene was an Arab Jew.)
The locations are brilliantly gorgeous, though.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
what a long freaky day. First WAY overslept. Next, iPhone was like FROZEN for 2 min, then just worked fine. Then my CAR gets all warning lights.. then is fine (AFTER getting it to the dealership, of course... always works for the repair man). Company party was ok. After that, a lil knitting party where I learned to cast off and add tassels. Its official, my mom's scarf is DONE! New knitting has been restarted.
OK, time to pull a lil meara before heading to bed:
Does anyone else have songs picked out? Or am I the only morbid one?When I was an intern, my boss had a D.A.T. of music in his desk. Occasionally he'd pull it out to add a new song. I think it was more for the wake than the funeral. I've been thinking about a playlist in my iTunes for awhile, but too morbid to actually do it. And I agree, funeral stuff is for the living. I also agree, do what ya want, as long as it's cheap. No use wasting money on a dead body.
So, L.A. people...specifically NoiseDesign, whose idea it was for a Rock Band party in the first place: all signs seem to be pointing to Sunday, Dec. 30. Is that good? Timing is whenever. I was also thinking Laga and omnis and I could do the Museum of Jurassic Technology that morning/afternoon. I don't know how long one needs.Count me in! My day is cleared. If your staying at Laga's, I'd be more than happy to play chauffeur.
I feel like someone filled my sinuses with that expandable foam insulation.Or, maybe a beach in Australia: [link]
OK, that's it for me. Must get to sleep. Boss kinda chewed me out for being late. It's not like we had anything doing today. Pfft.

o no. Very bad. I've been invited to beta for a very distracting site. [link]
It does seem rather cool. Streaming video of current and past TV shows.
OK, really. Going to bed now.

The alarm in our building went off at half three this morning for NO REASON . Gronkity gronk.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Oh, Jars - ick!
So, in mememe news my bodyclock seems to be back on track: stayed up until 1am or so rather than crashing out at 7pm. Woke up this morning around 9ish or 10ish, at a guess. Huzzah!
I do love Yorkshire. I do love looking out of the window at the bare-limbed trees and the undulating patchwork of the horizon, at the slate grey winter sky. I mean, I love Bangkok too, but...it's nice to be home, you know? (Returning from Bangkok, one is hit by the lack of jungle. Returning from Egypt, one was always hit by the almost obscene lushness of the countryside, even in winter; compared to a land where desert is default normality for 99% of the landscape, Britain seemed amazingly green. Compared to Thailand, however, it's all very stark and bare. And I know that this is all a bit states-the-obvious-ish, but it's just that it hits you in a visceral way, you know?)
