Grace is so beautiful. And grinny!
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Natter 58: Let's call Venezuela!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
During entirely unrelated web surfing I have learnt that Google has a 3D modelling tool for free--so if you want to go that extra cubic foot in laying out your apartment, you can go crazy.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Grace grins are the best!
How many Daybreak episodes are there in total? I think I only saw 3 or 4.
I called my grandmother because I thought my mom would be there. Mom had gone home, but I talked with Grandma for an hour. Topics ranged from knitting to Boston Terriers to alternative fuel sources to erosion problems in the Gulf. Grandma is pretty cool.
Then I called my parents but they weren't home. Around 10:30 I decided to put on a DVD because my parents are really good at calling when I'm in the middle of watching something. It worked! They called at 11.
Mother's Day wishes were given. Flowers were well received. I'm claiming success and going to bed.

They got to 13 episodes, aurelia. 10 was just aired. I'm trying not to see the upcoming ep titles, because this is a fun one to be unspoiled for. And I like the idea of there being a show it's fun to be unspoiled for.

Maybe I'll add that to the queue if it comes out on DVD.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Kristen came over and put up my new curtain rods, curtains, and shades, and they look awesome.
I'm almost done painting the living room. I put up new switchplates, they are the kind where you can insert your own design. So I used black and white polka dot ribbon on sparkly white paper and my little vampire bat stamp. They look Jilli-rific.
It's starting to feel more like my place, though I still have quite a bit of unpacking to do.
Hope everyone's mom's day was made of rawk.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Because books.
Oh, awesome.
I'll never forget when I saw Morgan Freeman on the street in the Village when I was in college. He'd been in a lot of stuff by then (although not as much as now, obviously), but my reaction was still, "Hey! It's Easy Reader!"

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My dad used the paid version of Sketchup to design the new cabin my parents had built in Canada. It was pretty neat.

I am waiting for the plumber.
I am also trying to send my timesheet into my boss. Groupwise Remote, on my old computer and on dial up is excruciatingly slow. I am getting less and less paitent with this computer. I think I may break down and get a new one within the year, and I always said that when I got a new computer, I'd finally switch to high speed. I may get in the 21 century with the rest of y'all soon.
