A few more eccentricities of Aunt Wealthy: she mixes up names with similar words, so she introduces Dr. Prince instead of Dr. King, and Mrs. Sixpence instead of Mrs. Schilling. (And everybody, including Elsie, makes some rather unChristian comments about Mrs. Schilling, but she's poor, so I guess she doesn't count.) Another of Aunt Wealthy's eccentricities is that, a few times a year, she goes to all the shops to buy the bits and pieces of fabric left over and makes them into dresses for poor little girls. I have no idea why this is regarded as something weird rather than a good example for others to follow.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We were doing spinning backfists in karate today and I bruised my knuckle. It looks all purple already. I'm icing it and typing one handed. Ouchies.

Yay for young sprogs interested in Shakespeare! I took my mom to her first professional production of Will. She was very hesitant. "I'm not so sure I'll understand what they are saying". The show was Patrick Stewart in Tempest on Broadway. As the curtain dropped, and heard her clapping, I leaned over and asked if she understood what they said. Then I looked at her. Tears streaming down her face! "I think it's safe to say you got the gist". She nodded most enthusiastically. Turns out her only viewing of Will was a bad high school production. It was awesome.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Damn. Patrick Stewart.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Damn. Patrick Stewart.
Damn, indeed.

This does not in any way reduce my inner conviction that he has the Syphy.
Is that the new Sci Fi Channel?

Wear it proudly! I'm currently sporting a black eye from baseball practice last week. It really looks like I got punched because there's an abrasion over the brow and a cut on the cheekbone too.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Is that the new Sci Fi Channel?
it is indeed. I'll be pronouncing it "siffy" from now on.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What a coincidence! I'll be avoiding the channel like syphilis from now on.

I wish the channel didn't air programs I still wanted to watch. I guess I'll call it protected viewing while I consume the rest of them.
