Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

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

Taking care of my death would cost money. I'd imagine life insurance would be a simple way to ensure something's there, if the will is written right.

As for the insurances for me still alive, when employed those are well taken care of. Not sure where I'd start jobless.

Our wings are not tired.

Happy Birthday, Meara!!

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

I woke up this morning, stepped out of my bed, and...

squish.

squish squish.

A pipe burst in my apartment last night.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, Tom. The only liquid one should wake up to is coffee, brewed in a pot with a timer. I hope your landlord will deal with things quickly and completely.

Happy Birthday, Meara!

Obama's speech was on too late for me last night. (Starting at 10? Dude—I'm in be by 9:30 on work nights.) I'm looking forward to watching it on YouTube, though. It sounds like he was pretty amazing.

I don't have a landlord; I own. I do have a super, though, who lived up to his name this morning.

All and all, I think that having a pipe bust in your apartment is better than having one burst above your apartment. I hope the people downstairs don't have a lot of damage.

Oh, I was skipping just for that: happy birthday, meara! I hope you have a great day and a wonderful year!

Also, it's Jen K's birthday as well (I love it when Buffistas share a birthday), so even though I haven't seen posts from her in forever, I hope the well-wishes will find their way to her somehow.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, meara and Jen!

True fact. When we had a pipe incident on my floor in a college dorm, it was the people downstairs who were really screwed. Still sucks for you, though.

hip deep in pie

I think squishing the first thing in the morning is rarely good. I hope things dry out, Tom.
