And what's with all the carrots?

I just received a heads up on the lurker thread, so I will delurk for an introduction. My name actually is Buffy. Legally, another Elizabeth, but I was only called Elizabeth when in trouble as a child--so Buffy it is.

I found myself hooked on Buffy during Season 2. When the show transferred to another channel not available in our area, my awesome cousin, Javachik, video taped and mailed episodes to me! Fast forward to 2004. Javachik introduced me to b.org and within months I met a good number of people at the SFF2F and again in Chicago a few years later.

I live in Nebraska in the largest city on Husker game days. I would move in an instant but I have full custody of two children from a previous marriage, and until I am ready for a huge -HUGE- legal battle with the ex (aka Satan), we have to remain living here.

I have an awesome wife who gets nightmares from watching scary shows, yet has been watching the box set with me over the last few months. Our daughter S is a princess/artist at almost 6 who knows more about fashion than I ever have in my 37 years. R is a 9 yr old boy who is a whiz, plays a zillion sports, some of which I coach to prevent bleacher butt, and has aspergers autism.

I work for a software company that creates programs for county government around the country. It's very exciting (yawn). However, I will be spending quite a bit of time in Washington the next 4-5 months and hope to meet up with more Buffistas F2F!!!

I lurk every six months or so, typically in Bitches. Life tends to be busy and the board fast-paced, but I enjoy the banter and will land in a thread or two soooon!

Vrooom, how do you feel about the serial comma, olives, and/or cilantro?

Hi Vroomvroom! I too was called Elizabeth when I was in trouble as a child. Not only my full first name but also my full middle name for good measure. Just hearing it would give me chills.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Welcome vroom! I know of you secondhand through your delightful cousin, but it's fab to meet your pixels!

And what's with all the carrots?

dc or Washington state?

Washington State. The first trip is from Spokane to Okanogan and other county seats back to Spokane. The second round should fly me into Portland and up through Seattle.

how do you feel about the serial comma, olives, and/or cilantro?

I prefer to leave my grammar at the office, because, my brain, is fried, after hours of reading, editing, specification writing, etc.,,,

Olives should be stuffed with blue cheese and placed on a skewer to flavor a grey goose dirty martini.

Fresh cilantro, especially in mulligatawny soup. My friend Lisa says it tastes like dirty dishwater. Then again, she doesn't eat sushi.

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

Totally.
