Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Not only are they both miracles, but they seem to so often be full of glee. It's wonderful to see.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Ever since we decided to name the cat Mycroft, the husband has been playing Sherlock vids nonstop. It's utterly charming and I'm a little weirded out.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

In futher productivity news, I have (while watching Leverage in fits and starts on tnt's extremely crappy website) sorted business cards in order of importance to contact; fixed my DVD rack, moved it back into place, and loaded it with all my DVDs and CDs; unloaded two boxes of books onto newly shiny bookshelf and put empty boxes in pile o' boxes out of the way; and tried to file my nails (I *hate* filing my nails - any of you nailistas got filing tips or file recs?). Now to walk the Frankster one more time and hit the sack.

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

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Got in a full karate workout today without having to make any modifications. Not sure if the sensei was being nice and not assigning any push-ups or what, but our warm up was pretty intense even without them. Then I worked with one of the black belts for the rest of the hour and I'd like to think I was able to keep up, at least to my belt level.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Of course, it all falls apart if you've lost a finger.
