It would be cool if CBS did a summer 13-part suspense/horror series every summer. I really enjoyed Harper's Island.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

Because books.
I agree, sumi. That was fun. I didn't expect much other than pretty people and what we got, and I knew it was a limited run, so it worked really well for me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's nice seeing something that's definitely limited like that -- planned for the 13 but no more. Of course it works really well for the horror (they can actually kill everyone!), but all kinds of things would be good like that.

I think that's the key, too. You *know* a lot of the cast is going to get picked off, so you're not too worried or invested in finding out a lot about them, other than the surface issues of who's friends with who, etc., just to keep them straight.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
This morning we have made it to the greenmarket in the hood (spinach, cilantro, okra, corn, peaches, and mushrooms), had a fit, got to church early so we did a tiny bit of unnecessary shopping.
I think I need to get something to keep mac's comics in. I have platic sleeves for most, but should probably get like magzine holders? Or would keeping them flat in a shoebox be ok?

You just need a longbox for comics, msbelle. You can get one at a comic store.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
The con was decent, and we got home after 1 this morning. Today will be spent doing laundry. Oh, fun...

Tom's to-do list is exactly mine today. Including dealing with all the comics that are lying around.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm trapped. I'm lying on the floor and there is a cat on my butt. I'm OK for now, as I have a laptop and music. At some point, though, I'll have to go to the bathroom....

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I've taken out the trash, cleaned up the front porch, vacuumed the apartment, and removed the science projects from the fridge. While all of this needed to be done, I live alone, so I'm kind of surprised it actually did get done.
The cat thinks I wasted valuable time that could have been better spent watching him watch a mouse hole outside, in the humid, 90F weather.
