This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Oh tired.

Took Grace to her first appointment with her new pediatrician (though she's been a patient of his according to insurance for three years... now she is an established patient). She had a FIT. It makes me tired, her fit having. But as soon as the man in the white coat walks out, she's all smiles and giggles and lifting her chin to be suctioned. Really, child? This? This is not acceptable behavior.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Kate Beckett or Emily Prentiss

Emily Prentiss

Derek Morgan or Charlie Crews

Oh, how I am torn. Crews is ruthless, but I think that Morgan could take him in a fair fight. But, it would not be a fair fight. So, I'm going to have to go with Crews.

John Crichton or Mal Reynolds

Mal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ah, Grace.

I'm weirdly sad about David Mills. Weird because it's not like I was a huge fan of his, not because it's not sad.

Even though I had fast food dinner beforehand, I still bought a ton of snacks at the grocery store just now. BUT! The many-pack of little bags of chips should ultimately save me money and calories, since it will prevent me from buying bigger bags of chips.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have never heard of Jeff Fecke before, but I love this:

So when the first words out of your keyboard announce that we can call you a misogynist asshole, well, that’s enough proof for me; you’re a misogynist asshole, one who knows he’s a misogynist asshole, and you simply are okay with hating women and blaming them for your own failures.

We could stop here, but I want to demonstrate that there is significant evidence in my favor, in the form of the rest of what this yahoo wrote.

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

Emily Prentiss. Kate's cool, and shit, but Prentiss is the woman.

Charlie Crews is a crazy-assed motherfucker. Unless Morgan got the first tackle in, Charlie takes it.

Crichton is also a crazy-assed motherfucker, perhaps the craziest, but I think it kinda works more against him, and I'm going to give it to Mal here.

Aeryn Sun or Sarah Conner?

I would totally need to see more of Aeryn, mother. She has a lot of promise, but Sarah...damn.

I can't get to LJ or FB from my work computer, so checking out the other stuff is sneaking looks on my phone.

Which I'm totally not above...

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Are we talking the Mal Reynolds of Firefly, or of Serenity? Because the latter may just have jumped up to Crichton's level of badassedness/batshit crazy what with the "Let's strap bunches of corpses to my ship and take a little fact-finding trip into Reaver Territory."

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm at the doctor's office and they're running an hour late. I have no book. Only my phone.

Some people got let go in IT today. That's terrifying when you're trying to get a permanent position.

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

to continue the question:

Parker or Prentiss?

Eliot Spencer or Mal Reynolds?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Over Passover, I was talking to my mom about what kids eat, and she was really surprised that a lot of foods that were reserved for special treats at our house were eaten pretty regularly at my friends' houses. And now I'm wondering whether I was the weird one or if my friends were. So: chocolate milk, white bread, dessert after dinner, soda. Everyday food or treat food when you were a kid?
