I'm going to henna my hair this weekend, I think. I'm getting tired of the gray strands. 27 is too young to be noticably grey!
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

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

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
So my dance group had a gig at the zoo. Well, it's more that there was SCA stuff as part of the "Guppy Gala" and we were part of the SCA stuff. Didn't dance all that much, but whatever...

Stephen Colbert interviewing an astronaut is almost as adorable as Pete. That is all.

Which astronaut?! (I've met a few and the eldest nephew idolizes one.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My binging on procedurals (Criminal Minds passed, Cold Case did not) has given me a goal. I want to be an autopsied corpse. Not one who has to do any acting--I just want to get made up and lie there all eviscerated.
That would be cool.

The status is NOT quo.
The Colbert/astronaut interview was one of the best things I have ever seen. The sheer joy and giddiness on both sides was fantastic.

Paging megan....
Is there a French exclamation roughly equivalent to "Oh, what the hell," only a little more polite? Like, something a gentleman would say in front of ladies he respects. The context is that he's agreeing to a somewhat reckless plan.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

OMG! SPACE!YES! The progression (Space->Space!->OMG! SPACE!) was fucking hysterical. Also the moment when he let the "wrist strong" bracelet tumble through the zero gravity and Colbert burst out with, "I could die and go to heaven RIGHT NOW!" Also his taunting of Jon Stewart. Best Colbert segment ever.
