Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I've seen Kindles at Staples for prices pretty close to Amazon's. A Thermos you can find in most larger discount-y type stores: Target, Walmart, etc.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

You can get a Thermos at most supermarkets, too.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm sorry, I can't think anything other than "I'm picking out a thermos for you /No ordinary thermos will do" now. Productivity for the rest of the day=gone.

I had lunch with Shir and now she's off to see aurelia.

Over lunch we figured out that there's a National Theatre Live of King Lear this Sunday at 11:30am: [link]

Does anyone want to join us?

Are there plans for the evening, or tomorrow? I have to squeeze in a bunch of work but will join whatever I can.

We have no cruise director making plans as far as I know.

We really should get one of those.

My plane to Chicago tonight is going to be at least half an hour late. ::sigh::

What's the best venue for everyone to get together tomorrow?

Shir isn't familiar with Chicago, and I think she was hoping people would chime in with things they'd like to do, like the Art Institute or a boat tour etc.

Do we want to do The Chicago Diner tomorrow?
