Should such a thing exist, know she's got a good home. eta: and, um, balls.

Even if Devi's a bitch.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I wish I knew why success terrified me so.

connie - I know this one, even though I wish it to myself. Now, I don't know your reasons for it, but I find it a big help when a friend (not a specific friend, just any friend in general) will come, slap my face (metaphorically speaking) and go "you deserve this, bitch. And yes, you can do this. Now stop complaining already, for I have tons of Real Life Problems for you to hear and solve. How's the world peace coming along, by the way?".

Allyson - it is exciting to read these little updates about your book every morning. I find myself wondering what will happen to Sam when I come here, from time to time.

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

I'm not even sure how late I am with either--happy birthday Nilly and Emmett!

I slept through my PT appointment today. It was at 3:30. I'm not sure how I managed to sleep almost uninterrupted that long. I'm going to have to set alarms every day. How is that to spend time off work?

Art Crawl!!!

I thought Fringe was actually v. good this week - beyond the Bishops. (And I love how despite seeming totally lost in his world - Walter does have a pretty good idea of what is going on around him.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Crawling into bed now, but stopping first to wish Nilly the happiest possible birthday (until next year's, and the year after, and so forth for always).

We went into the East Bay for Emmett's birthday dinner at a swanky burger joint; he had been feeling sickish and low but when he saw us coming up the street he came bolting out of the restaurant and pelting toward Matilda, and they were just crowing with delight and snuzzling and laughing and whooping it up with perfect giddy joy.

Burgers were good, too (and it was a Berkeley burger joint, so plenty of veggie options); just not as good as the sibling giddiness.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy birthday Nilly!

Happy Birthday, Nilly! Noah wants YOU to have a good birthday.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Fringe is absurd, but entertaining. I used to love the Marshall-Spy Daddy interactions on Alias. I think Walter provides some of the same amusement all by himself.
