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

2 minutes into Knight Rider: I can't believe it got this bad this fast.

Burrell, I'm sorry to hear that your ick continues. I'm actually having a good patch, and it seems unfair that it shouldn't mean good health for everyone.

Just because.

Blowing off Knight Rider, thanks to all the advice. I'm watching Dexter instead. Does anyone know if CBS is showing it everywhere, or if it's just syndicated?

I haz internets!

I have to say the 11-hour flight/9-hour time difference somehow makes for way less jet lag than flying to/from the East Coast. Although I guess it also means very few Buffistas are up and about when I am.

I can haz sleep? Pleez?

I don't like winter. At least, I don't like winter here, in an in-between climate. If there were snow and frozen places, that would be OK, because I could be outside skating or skiing or something. If it were warm enough that I could go bike riding, that would also be OK. But it's just cold. No pretty snow, just ugly bare trees. A bit too warm for the outdoor rinks. Too cold to go bike riding without triggering my asthma. Feh.

Maybe I ought to get a sunlamp. A "feh" attitude plus weird sleep patterns during the winter doesn't seem good.

Huh. There's no quoty "greater than" symbol on this keyboard.

That's what I really didn't like about living in Maryland. If I'm going to have winter, give me a real winter.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Damn, I was having an interesting dream where Dr. House was actually solving a murder mystery (instead of a medical mystery) at a research institution. I want to know who did it, because I woke up before it ended.

Today I have 11 hours of classes. Of course I woke up with a major sinus headache, which is making the prospect so so very gronkful. At least there shouldn't be as much traffic as normal....

I had several dreams, including one where I had to sit through a class where a student told the teacher what a bad teacher I was. Possibly because I'd taught evolution. Blargh.

Awsome! Sir Charles, every time I'm ready to dismiss you as a self-important blowhard, you go and do something like this. Kudos.

Libkitty, I think it's CBS period, not syndicated, though it wouldn't surprise me if certain affiliates chose not to air it.

I'm here!

I'm also contemplating how to introduce and describe the human digestive system while steering clear of the end stages. Because my kids are pretty good, but they're still (primarily) teenage boys.
