If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

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

We're supposed to have a high of 50 tomorrow, and then a high of 70 on Sunday. I wish the weather would make up its mind.

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

The 15 Greatest Pairs of Henchmen

#11 Rosencrantz and Guildenstern

Woot!

#5 Fezzik and Inigo Montoya

Yay!

#4 Crabbe and Goyle

Heh.

#3 Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield

Of course.

#2 Henchmen 21 and 24

Yay!

The Monarch sums 21 and 24 up perfectly, "They both have that rare blend of expendable and invulnerable that makes for a perfect henchman."

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I want to tell the lawyer lady pull the outfit together the night before if you can make up your mind what you want quickly in the am. I am pretty low maintenance - half an hour is ok , but I can take longer. DH takes a little longer, but than he looks a little less tossed together and more polished in general

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I would be so happy if someone could tell me how to turn frizzy curly hair into those sleek curls in that "acceptably professional" photo. I have never found anything that does that. Anything I put on my hair either makes it limp, dirty/oily-looking, or, bizarrely, more frizzy. Or best of all, oily AND frizzy.

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

OMG, my mother just read the love-chronic pain relief article, and because she's her, is recommending I fall in love with an endocrinologist so he can monitor my hormone levels. I'm not sure when she went from crazy scary lady to just crazy lady.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sure, but she's a crazy scientist lady.

Any other mother might just suggest you fall in love -- she specified a endocrinologist and a research protocol. You gotta respect that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't know, if I read that article correctly, you're only looking at a 12% reduction in intense pain from being in love. Would that be worth pursuing?

I should get myself one of those morning routines. That sounds like a good idea.

I'm never going to adjust to texting/calling my neighbors. Just a few doors down! Those are for long distance.

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

I'm pretty sure my mother considers an applicable medical specialty to be an additional bonus to the 12%, plus general caretaking duties, so for her, she'd think it entirely worth it (even if she did mention s-e-x in the email, and then freak out about it).

I, however, would be the one flipping my nut, so probably not.
