Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

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

Is that like having butterflies at a wedding? I attended one where the guest got little packages they were supposed to open at the end, and a lot of them were dead.

I've been watching many Attenborough specials where caterpillars get parasitised, and instead of a butterfly, instead a wasp emerges from the cocoon. I wonder how that would play at the wedding.

In conclusion, 15 YEARS IS BIG METAL CHICKENS.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I take it you're over the worst of the nausea? And hey, you're burning calories for two!

I am over the worst of the nausea, it seems, and THANK GOD. Not a moment too soon. ...Of course, as soon as I noticed that the nausea was abating, I started worrying that something had gone wrong, and in fact, was making myself so crazy imagining worst-case scenarios that I went and bought another home pregnancy test yesterday. Still pregnant, at least according to the test! Our first doctor's appt is this coming Monday, and I think if I make it through this weekend with my sanity intact, I'll call it a win.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Huh. While watching Big Bang Theory, when

Pria started taking off her nightie on Skype

Owen looked at me and said, "I know what happens next! S-E-X!"

When I asked him if he knew what that was, he said, "When people take their clothes off and romance."

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

Driving CJ to his ARP meeting tonight, we saw Ecto-1 (or at least a very good remake).

They sold one the promo cars at auction a few years back. That was a fun one to watch.

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

Oh, it's been so long since I took off my clothes and romanced.

I am trying really hard not to laugh. And failing.

I mean, I don't envy you the conversation but that is a damn good definition.

Well, he's not far wrong!

Fall officially commences in a few hours and I have 5 new mosquito bites.

Did he say it like Mr Boombastic?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Oh Sara, I accumulated mosquito bites on my elbows of all places, when I had to hike through the woods at work that hosted an impressive autumnal pool. My ELBOWS! And nobody was slapping as furiously as I was. My compatriots on the walk were grateful that I was drawing all the little bloodsuckers to me, but I almost prefer the enduring nuisance of poison ivy. At least that I can bitch about.
