Oh, bless Misha. They call him MishMish on LJ. Or, well, some people do. In a capslock community. I am disarmed by the capslock philosophy of frivolous enthusiasm expressed via capslock, and yet I cannot bring myself to do the ASSCAPS thing. Anyway, yes - MishMish.
Which charms the hell out of me, because it's Arabic (or at least Egyptian Arabic, I don't know if it's Classical Arabic - but it also crops up in
Dune,
come to think of it - but then, I think that's largely Egyptian Arabic too, upon further reflection) for apricot.
"Fill Mishmish" was one of my favourite phrases - "In the time of the apricots", which you use instead of "When pigs fly" or "Sure, once in a blue moon!" type of thing. Because apricots are such a delicacy, and their season is so fleeting.
MishMish.
Bless.
Apricots. . . interesting.
Hmmm. Would his Daisy Dukes then be apricot smugglers?
...did I say that out loud?
Yes, yes you did. Thank you.
You said it loud enough that it was heard on
the other side of the globe,
my dear.
like, yes, gore, but definitely a do-not-miss ep. I'm sure she has her strategies for dealing with the gore...
This is what the laptop, and the very large cat, are for.
Perkins and I have similar SPN strategies. Though different sizes of cat.
(Hi, Notepad, fancy finding your window with an unposted post in it.)
There is thunder. There are thunderstorms predicted through 1:00 AM. We lose both power and cable, though not often both at the same time, during thunderstorms. Ordinarily I would be, "Okay, if the tv doesn't catch it, the dvr will." Er, not so much. Do.not.want.
Want show.
Also want show. In a just world, I would be settling down to watch in 7 minutes. But no. I will have to wait another hour while everyone else in the Eastern/Central time zone gets to watch.
Thank you, local affiliate KraPtacuLaR. Thank you very much.
t /first world problems
Oh man...I will be hoping for steady power, cable for Bev.
Wheee! Show!!
eta:
Anne, sure it's a first world problem. But it's a dang irritating one when we have already waited a week. Want NOW.
I have to go watch show.....
So far, no more rumbles. Wish me clear weather! SHOW!
