Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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

Well, this is certainly a very interesting Wimbledon final. Very interesting indeed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I want to watch Doctor Who, but I can't do it until Wimbledon ends.

Well, this us certainly a very interesting Wimbledon final. Very interesting indeed.

What?! Did a Bill Tilden zombie just storm Centre Court and eat Nadal's brains?!

I can't bear the tension myself; I've come to the computer to give myself a little break. I wish Rafa had won at the last set but in a way it's right that it should be a five-setter, they're so evenly matched.

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

I came here to take a break from Wimbledon, not to find out how it's going--Fiona, I'm going to spoilerfont bits of your post.

Jesse, so is it you I'm trying to be like, then??

I had a headache last night and didn't feel good, that's what I'm blaming all the sleep on. But yeeeeesh!


Fiona - Jul 06, 2008 10:06:49 am PDT #6627 of 10003

We need to whitefont live sporting events? OK then. Sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, so is it you I'm trying to be like, then??

Apparently? I dunno, I could still lie back down. I mean, I didn't get much sleep Friday night, but this is really ridiculous.

I am doing a bunch of laundry, including new sheets I bought a couple of weeks ago, so that's exciting.
