We're in love. We're ... lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers.

As we enter the new year, I'm back at my job full-time, we're getting Ryan ready to start at school, I've signed up for two online courses from Harvard (Chinese history and computer programming) and I've got four library books still unread and mocking me from the bedside table. Oh, and I'm trying to pull together some stats analysis on BSG games on boardgamegeek. Naturally, this is the time that I'm starting up on organising our next BSG game. I propose to run it using the same elements as we used last game (including Daybreak and the other expansions, with optional modules limited to Conflicted Loyalties, and Cylon Leader if anyone picks one).

Time to decide. Who's in for the twentieth flight of Battlestar Galactica? All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again. Post here or send me an email.

I'm in with the same stuff.

Laga - Jan 7, 2014 3:04:30 pm

I'm in and I agree with the Cow.

I'll just heckle from the sidelines this time.

askye - Jan 7, 2014 3:18:36 pm

I'm in. I'll probably be able to participate more since I'm not constantly working weird hours.

Ouch! Quit twisting my arm! I'll do it!

billytea - Jan 7, 2014 3:32:13 pm

Ok, that's four sign-ups in... a touch over an hour. Clearly you all have a problem and are in need of professional help. All I can offer is a frantic chase across solar systems by a gang of homicidal robots, which should at least put your own issues in perspective.

omnis_audis - Jan 7, 2014 4:09:01 pm

I will have you know, I have SOOoooo many issues, it can be classified as a SUBSCRIPTION!

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

Chuck Norris wishes he loved somebody like Kirk Douglas loves you.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

In Natter:

Steph L.: I was reading a post with questions from readers about picking your bridal party, and one reader wondered if 9 (on just her side) was too many.

The very first comment was "I think nine is a nice number because then they can be your Nazgul."

AWESOME.

Steph L.: Realizing I could have had Nazgul makes me slightly regret not having a wedding party.

billytea: I for one endorse replacing "Maid of Honour" with "Witch King of Angmar".

Connie Neil: Once again looking for the Like button on the Nazgul posts. The Witch King would give a bitchin' speech.

billytea: I'd be waiting for when she announces it's time to get on the dance floor: "Do not come between the Nazgûl and her prey."

Theodosia: I'd look forward to the part of the wedding reception where the Witch King says "No man may dance with me," and the Best Man tears off his false beard and breast bindings and whips her into a waltz.

sarameg: ...It's all because I washed my car, isn't it?

Steph L: sara, look at your life. Look at your choices.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Dana: King cake ice cream is better in theory than in execution, but aren't you glad we live in a world where such things are possible?

erikaj: People always react to my ASU degree, too. I can't tell if it's the chair or that a blonde graduate of that college kept her shirt dry for two years.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Jilli in Goodbye and Good Riddence:

...No way am I giving up caffeine or sugar. You will pry my coffee with two sugars out of my chilly undead hands. And then I'll send some of the minions after you, while the others go fetch me more coffee.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I should get on the treadmill or meditate or something before I try to destroy the Earth. I know it's where I keep my stuff you guys, but I've been trying to declutter...
