Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Natter 55: It's the 55th Natter  

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that sounds delicious, brenda.

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

First, the pure joy of candy eating, unsullied by regret. Then, the sickness, untainted by any memory of candy eating.

No, I'd know, but there'd be so much less caring. The highs were higher, and we bounced back from the lows so damned quickly.

Those cranberries look beautiful. You need creme anglaise.

Daniel sent me a link to this video, and it made me laugh and laugh. [link] It's kind of dull for 2 minutes and I was all, "Yes, why am I supposed to care?" Then all became clear.

That really improved my mood.

Now I have to go watch Picard get tortured. Lots of good Trek these past few days.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You need the toffee for energy.

You're good.

I just had mac n' cheese (which Matilda scarfed down, so add another not-babyfood to her list) and a healthy, wholesome salad.

When Matilda hears any kind of music - like say, the Flight of the Conchords theme - she starts grooving and moving and looking around expectantly for a party to break out.

She should hang out with Jesse and Liese watching the top 100 songs of the 90s. Where will "Candy Girl" land?!

Candy Girl isn't 90s, is it?

Geez louise -- it's 83!! [link]

How about Bel Bev Divoe? They're 90s right?

Yeah -- Don't Be Cruel would have been 90/91, with BBD a little bit after. IIRC.

Edit: and I don't quite -- Poison was (c) 1990, apparently. That doesn't seem right to me, but it's right here on the CD.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Sunday Morning showed a uTube video of a toddler who dances and jumps up and down to the Sunday Morning theme.

Someone submitted me Maggie Smith pictures for my site.

Theoretically I have no objection. In practice, two small pics from Harry Potter and one of Ian McKellen playing Maggie Smith? So not the point of my site.
