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

Oh, poor belle-house!

I'm finally watching the Israel episode of Fight Quest where one prsenter goes with the soldiers and trains with the IDF, and one lucky lucky guy goes with the chick and does the public sector krav.

I think the first thing she did was elbow him in the face. For real.

I would so love to steal drills from this for class, except they've all already seen it.

Poor mac, that's so tough. Dang.

Jesse, that's darn good for your first time at the convention!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It is literally stunning how fast the top-tier people are. The first puzzle was easy, but I don't think I could have written gibberish in each square by the time they were done.

We have SOME stuff moved. Rug, TV, Tivo, cable, DVD, airport, baby play pen, some of kitchen stuff, bed.

Argh. We have so much more to do. But the new digs? HAS INTERNET!

Poor Amy(Liz). I was chatting with her last night and she had agonizing tooth pain and a swollen jaw. She had to go into the ER this morning and fortunately she had a very nice doctor who put her on IV antibiotics and morphine immediately. She had an abcess.

I tried to do a crossword in your honour, Jesse, and made it exactly halfway through the USA Today one.

Kat, did you go with the movers? When do they do their stuff?

That sucks for AmyLiz. I hope she heals quickly.

I seem to have stumbled into buying much of Jericho S1 from iTunes. I didn't mean that to happen.

The first half of Jericho S1 isn't very good, or so I'm told. I saw the pilot, skipped to episode 11, and went on from there. It's worked out pretty well, although I did miss the episode in which DB Sweeney first showed up.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think it's so cool that you are in the tournament, Jesse. Go you!

msbelle, sorry that mac's having a bad day. I know how tough it can be on you too. Give him an extra hug for me.

Kat, do you need any help with the moving? I'd be happy to.

We had a pretty good day. Frances had ballet class this morning. There were some tears (she misses her friend who wasn't in class today) but she got over it, danced for most of the class, and there were big smiles by the end of it. Then later in the afternoon, she & dad went off and Isaac and I raked the front yard. So much more fun to do with kids!

I think the Sci Fi channel picks up at #6, so maybe I'll stop shopping at #2. The Apple TV makes these things insidiously easy.

The black guy from State of Play is in it! I loved that in SoP they never explained the race difference between him and his mother. Some shit you don't talk about again, you know?

Kat--do you need standing around help? I mean, I can lift sometimes, theoretically.

Art Crawl!!!

Wait - the one with Lennie James and Jason Isaacs is State of Play?

What's the one with James McAvoy and John Simm called?
