Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I just read all of that after you posted, Kat.

He is very eloquent.

A good education is a privilege.

It's not an awesome day for me historically and today really decided not to ease up so I am perhaps overly emotional, but his response did make me well up a little.

There are a lot of complicated issues that get snarled up together but taking a privilege and using that try and make more lives, beyond yourself, better? I respect that.

He really does do his education from Duke proud.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Jilli, Tim Burton exhibit at LACMA. Any chance you are going?

There is much scrutinizing of the household budget and calendar, yessssss.

(Why oh why couldn't it have opened the same weekend as Bats' Day? That would have made things SO SIMPLE.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Has anyone else with a compost heap wondered if carrots are really food? They seem to have the half-life of a Twinkie.

If you eat enough of them, they'll tint your skin orange.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

So I went out to dinner with the lawyer from back east and during the dinner she referred to an online community she's been a member of since 1998 and has made some dear friends on.

::looks around suspiciously::

For all I know, she could be in a community centered around a deep love for Ukrainian sheepdogs, but I found it entertaining. And no, I have not revealed my deep familiarity with online community-building. *g*

(L, if you're a lurking Buffista, I promise not to out you.)

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

Have we heard from ita since earlier this morning? I hope she's sleeping a lot, but I worry.

I don't think so, and ditto.

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

I slept, logged in to work and slept some more. I feel like wet tissue paper right now. Now for more Gatorade.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Thanks for checking in.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

This AV Club interview with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost is great, but it has this line in it, this moment where Pegg describes, by way of describing geeks, *exactly* why I love my Buffistas:

"The capacity to acknowledge things at that level of detail and retain it, that’s what geeks are. They see the beauty in tiny, tiny things, and then chat about it."

Perfect.
