Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Riley ,'Potential'

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

What is with the peeing??!?

Where does "alert level bears" come from?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ummm... huh?

Stephen Colbert?

I can't help with your first question.

Aha! Threat level bear! Thank you, Dana. Apparently that is what the potential drama level has reached family-wise for the funeral, and I wanted to be able to tell my sister the etymology when I started sounding like a crazy person.

I was just thinking the other day it was refreshing to not see any peeing Calvins around, and now luminescent peeing Santa?

We must never introduce Leif to Olivia. Seriously.

Do you ever have to tell Olivia not to booby trap her room?

Oopsie! TMZ admits that Kennedy photo is probably a fake: Kennedy Picture -- A Fake?

Playboy says it's a picture that ran in a 1967 issue.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am at the airport and through security stupid early partially because I wasn't sure what security would be like after spending half an hour in Tucson waiting to go to security even though there were only 10 people ahead of me in line because of the new procedures. Here there was no line and the TSA agents weren't being anywhere near as throrough as the Tucson agents were. I commented on this to one agent who told me "that's because all the supervisors are on vacation still".

I feel very safe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

At LAS? Unrelated to any new procedures, I think they've generally done a good job of cutting down the wait time there, because it used to be horrendous!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Just found out that someone will need to move into my office by January 15th. I feel worse for her -- she's been in her office forever and has more seniority than I do, so it sucks that she's being rushed around like this.

Is she being moved into your office as well as you, or instead of you?

I can't believe I'm flying Friday. I haven't flown domestically in years. I haven't seen this segment of family in years. And they've apparently been flexing drama muscles the whole of D's illness, and are coming to a boil. Why does it have to be about them and their issues?
