Especially the proud, stentorian tones of the narrator guy. Not unlike that galactic robot in the Venture Brothers' Twenty Years to Midnight. "Ignore me!"

Heh. We all say that around the house fairly often.

Oh! That reminds me! I've picked up Season 2 of the Venture Brothers from Amazon. Such fun! It took a moment to twig that the reason some of the eps were familiar is because I watched them at your place.

Right on! I also made Emily watch a lot of episodes at my house. New season in June!

I get very steely and polite and crisp.

Oh yeah, I get it (I hope my hypothetical reaction didn't come out as a judgment. Merely an acknowledgment of a button.) I do that for a lot of other things that would send someone else storming out the door. Some things freeze you with W.T.F., others send you straight to knocking the chair over incoherently ranting.

Sexism freezes me. It's like a mental loop gets started did I just hear? No, really, are you sure? Really, could they really have said...what? Oh my fucking god, for real? and repeat. Which results in icy and polite as my brain reels.

Oh thank god. My Tivo is finally updating. I was beginning to get the shakes.

Sometimes we have to force our Tivo to update. You must apply the spurs!

Congratulations, JZ! May the new employer be more worthy of your awesomenessity than the old one!

Yay JZ!!

Oh thank god. My Tivo is finally updating. I was beginning to get the shakes.

I was just coming to post something similar about my TV! I unplugged the power from both the TV and the cable box, and now it works! Although it was apparently a cable box issue, since the DVR didn't tape anything until the restart. Bleh.

I just got back from my Spa Week facial.

OH! I forgot to tell you that, inspired by your Spa Week pimping, I totally made an appointment to get some kind of body scrub thing tomorrow!

White wine and Worchester sauce. Is most tasty. And piquant.

While that sounds yummy to me, I'm pretty sure that makes it unvegetarian, right? Doesn't Worchester sauce have something fishy in it? Like anchovies? If David was trying to keep it vegetarian that is.

You can get non-fish Worcestershire sauce, FYI.

The classic worcestershire does have anchovies, but Hil said something enticing the other day about vegan Bloody Marys with non-anchovy worcestershire, so such a thing must be available somewhere.

(It would be pescetarian and pareve, as it doesn't have shellfish or other meat, fwiw)

lisah! YAY! As part of a SpaWeek promotion? The place I was today said they had a waiting list for any openings this week. Crazy.
