Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Heh. I'm in the NYC suburbs right now. (Generally I'm in DC, but I'm visiting my parents for school break.) Yes, quite a few more options than Olympia, I'd assume.

Our usual Christmas Chinese place is a restaurant a few towns over called Baumgart's. It used to be an ice cream parlor, but then the owners sold it to people who made it into a Chinese restaurant, but kept the soda fountain, so you can get Chinese food with a root beer float.

Huh. Interesting scene in Bells of St. Mary's. The first-graders are putting on a Christmas play, and it's pretty obvious that the movie director had them pretty much just ad lib the whole thing. (I suppose it's possible that it was scripted, but I really can't imagine getting kids this young to look and sound this natural when they actual knew what they were supposed to say next. Maybe an outline of a script, but that's it.) I wonder exactly how they got this scene, and why they decided to do it that way. It's adorable, in any case.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

We're finishing up here at the movie theatre. Tearing down the movies that ended their run tonight. Well, the projectionists are tearing. I'm surfing the internet.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Olympia is a small town: no Chinese restaurants are open tomorrow in the greater Olympia area,which is why we bought it tonight.

That it is, that it is. Hell, you're lucky if you can find places open on Sundays there (though, granted, it's been a decade since last I lived there, and perhaps it's more civilized now).
