(I hate shopping/buying tech. I get my brother to do it for me if it really matters. Me, I have no clue and am fine with that.)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ugh. Finding a Wii this close to Christmas is like finding the Holy Grail.

I suspect the one episode of House that I should never see is coming on.

I know. But the parents don't pay attention to this sort of thing.

Oh man, the cookie components taste great together. If only I could figure out how to engineer them! The caramel I made is kind of saucy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Lisa, the first recipe I googled up says it's better after it hardens, so that sounds non-messy.... [link]

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

Notes on the first three Leverage episodes. Which means it gets spoilery a bit of the way down.

“Not dead yet!”

I like romantic comedies.

I do too, as entertainment goes. One of my favorite genres, actually. I like the escapism, but that's because I recognize it for what it is-- escapism. Fantasy. And there's a line drawn between how much I can take too-- love Bridget Jones, hate Sex and the City and Shopaholic.

It's when people start basing their real lives on those sorts of premises that it makes me crazy.

Doesn't have to be a rom com either-- after all, the people who think if they move to Forks, WA and think they'll be adopted by a mysterious wealthy family make me just as nuts. Maybe more so.

Some people need to bloody their noses on the inside of wardrobes as kids, just to get that sort of thing out of their systems.

ooh maybe I'll try that one. The one I made didn't thicken and it's been in the fridge for a couple of days. It wasn't meant to be a frosting though.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Weirdly enough, watching DLM makes me understand the people that didn't like Jaye in Wonderfalls a bit more, although I still really like her.

What do you mean, ita? I watched S1 of DLM so I think I'm missing the other piece of why that would help one understand the unlikeableness of Jaye.

I suspect the one episode of House that I should never see is coming on.

I'm super behind on House. How come this one is a watch-from-the-hall?
