So how is the Winchester Mystery House? I've never seen it.

Thank you so much for all of the kind birthday wishes, people! I was sort of feeling forgotten this weekend by many people, so it was really special to come onto the site and see the good wishes.

JZ, I finally uploaded the pictures of your adorable child going nuts with the shoes...!

(And I don't know if it was Natter or in Bitches where Nicole said "hi" but Mike totally didn't talk my head off...he was great! And I wasn't pretending at all to be fascinated by the souped up Chevy police vehicle talk! That stuff rawks!)

And me and my boyfriend at Plouf last night for my birthday dinner.

It's the beautiful birthday girl! I'm so sorry you've been feeling forgotten, love. How cute is Matilda with those shoes? Oh my.

Burrell, a group of us went to the Winchester Mystery House during the SF F2F, and I thought it was cool and creepy. I really enjoyed it.

Belated Birthday Felicitations, javachik! You are radiant as ever, and bf's no slouch either.

Aaand skipping once again, with my oh-so-constant whinings about how that's all I get to do around here these days, because according to the Buffista Calendar, today is askye's birthday.

Happy birthday, askye! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Happy Birthday, askye!!

Hi there, Nilly!!

I hate it when I fall asleep on the couch and then wake up hungry. I just had some ice cream and am now wide awake at 3:41 in the morning. Blargh. Oh, well, at least I finished watching my dvr of the Open, which I was totally unspoilered for (go, Tiger!).

(And now I'm just wondering if she had that rule so that she wouldn't have to hear "Waitin' For My Dearie" 100 times when we had auditions for Brigadoon. Because that would drive anyone nuts.)

I remember trying out for Brigadoon with "MacConaghey Square," which everyone had to audition with (the director must have been going spare by the end of it). My audition for Pajama Game went much better--I was able to use "Maybe This Time" from Cabaret instead, which fits my range.

Happy birthday askye!

Oh, Kathy, as much as it's lovely to see your font, I hope that by the time I write this, you're deep in a good dream again.

Shh, I'm not here. Really I'm not.

D'you think I can justify playing online in English here, because I'm trying to write my dissertation in English, and y'all, or at least the hivemind, may be considered sorta my editor? Or writing stuff like "sorta" immediately contradicts the whole point and make it go poof? Or maybe I can air our all my "y'all" and "poof" and "sorta"s here, in order to avoid them where it actually counts?

Or maybe I should invest all that amount of thoughts and of English in doing stuff like actually work, hmm?

Hugs Nilly and Nilly's logic

Lisah, the kitchen is gorgeous! At some point I may have to ask you how you managed the pets while the work was going
