I'm caramelizing some onions. My apartment smells good.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Friday is being deathly slow, yes.
JZ, did you get an email from me the other day?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Let me go back and look, Perkins. The last few days have been a blur.
eta: Holy shit! Insending.

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

When your (several times removed) underlings are rolling their eyes at your name in public, that can't be good.
Seriously. Someone needs to point out to Cantalamessa that vocal criticism of the way specific people behaved, much of which is coming from within the church, is not quite the same as bigoted persecution of a minority group. Plus, maybe not the most politic move when the church has also issued a few apologies for contributing to that persecution.
Perhaps in a few decades people can send a letter to the Vatican expressing their shame and remorse for their behavior, and explaining that it was an error in judgment, although their intentions were good.

Trust my rage
the priest who asked us all to pray for Benedict our Pope actually did an eyeroll as he said the words.
This made me laugh.

Or maybe some future governing body 300+ years from now could issue a statement that Ratzinger was unfairly maligned, the way the Church did for Galileo.

Mmm. I finished cooking, and I now have lentil pate. (Which the cookbook insists on calling mock chopped liver -- it's just cooked lentils, raw walnuts, and caramelized onions, put in the food processor.) Yum.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Okay, who else can rock this quiz like I did?
The answer is no one. I got 12 of 16, which is OK, but it was annoying that I knew the songs that didn't know what show they were from! Just not in context.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Huh. "Lentil pate" sounds way more appetizing to me than chopped liver, mock or not. And that's aside from the fact that no, cookbook dumbasses, they're totally not the same thing.
