Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

I have strawberries and spinach and empanadas and a lemon balm plant and a tomato plant. I'm not sure how the last 2 happened. But now I need to go get a pot and some dirt and plant them. I also did laundry.

I kinda want a nap. I should also note I haven't even washed my face yet.

But it is gorgeous out, so I will plant then walk and swim...

“Not dead yet!”

The Sudafed hangover has left me completely scattered and exhausted. I can breathe, though, so I suppose there's that. I'm totally not getting the whole tortured artiste thing of the people who think they can't create or let loose of their geeeeenyus unless they're under the influence of something. I mean, I live for those moments when I can completely lose myself in my writing to the point where the rest of the world ceases to exist, but I like being in complete control of myself before I do so.

My psyche, let me show you it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Those bits were widely quoted in my High School, I tell you what.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I remember being in 3rd or 4th grade and going to visit one of my dad's coworkers with the rest of the family for a cookout, and they were playing "Sister Mary Elephant" on the hi-fi. That was the first time I'd ever heard "Class...class...SHUT UUUUUUUUUUP!!" and we went around saying that phrase the rest of the night.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

When I was working for MTV, the musical performance/host of the show I was doing was Nelly so we had a "live" performance of "Ride Wit Me." Approximately 90% of the song is about getting high, and we were asked to bleep...one word. It's a totally random process based on what the studio exec happens to hear that day.

Good times, used up a jar of jam, bottle of salad dressing, and bottle of v8 juice.

biscuits are now done also and we've had lunch.

Now, knitting.

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

How's Mac holding out under the no-fi restrictions, msbelle?

Hmmph. Well, I think he's caused enough excitement for now. I hope he keeps behaving.

Yeah, no. I guess that was as long as he could hold it together. Mad at me cause I won't play with him, so he cut my knitting, then cut some of his hair and is now eating a bag of chips to SHOW ME!
