Well, I'm glad that if I've been Left Behind for the Gay, I've at least got Cass and msbelle?
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

I'm in the middle of Grey's (TiVo-delayed) and reallllly wondering if they're actually going to let Christina Yang have an abortion, since apparently you could do that in the 70s if you were Bea Arthur but these days something magic has to happen (I totally expected them to pull some BS copout "Owen got trapped in a sinkhole and Christina feels so awful she keeps the baby!" shit. But then Mere gave a little "this is who she is" speech to Christina, and man I hate how this show plays with my emotions, being awful and cheesy and predictable one moment, and being awesome the next...

Also on Grey's (hey, apparently I'm just gonna post all up on this board, since no one else is), the whole "OMG Meredith destroyed my trial! Is BS. Because while bad, and while she'd get kicked off the trial for it, she didn't destroy the trial. It was an open label (or at least single-blind--I don't recall if the patients know what they get) randomized trial. So by changing what Adele got, she changed the randomized part, but it was still open label (...which is really poor trial design, but whatever), and didn't actually affect it all that much. Not good, but not "my precious trial is RUINED!" If it had been double-blind, and she knew and was doing the post-surgery testing, then that would be much worse, because you're destroying the blind.
Seriously, Shonda, get someone who understands what they're doing?
ETA: OMG, SERIOUSLY find someone who gets what they're doing, the Chief can't just change to Bailey there are things to sign and forms to submit and blah blah blah. Argh.

Skipping yet again (I've heard about this thing called skimming - gotta try that one sometime) because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Emmett's birthday.
Happy birthday, Emmett! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

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

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If you were trying to go out but couldn't leave because one of the group refused to put on their shoes, you would say that person's an asshole!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Oh, I needed that today. 4 year-olds, man. Why do we even HAVE this age?

The Daily Show had a whole extended riff about my town last night. I was all "They know we exist!!!!" Halalifax also may be my new favourite name.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Happy birthday, Emmett! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Emmett's response: "Awww! Tell her I said thanks, like, a billion times."
He's eating his birthday cupcake (red velvet) right now.
(We had to get up super early because the car is in the shop and he has to BART to school today.)
Fifteen years ago his mom was still in labor. Actually she hadn't woken up yet. But when she woke up around 9 she was dilated at 9 and she started pushing.
Also, huzzah on Sophia's piss-free morning.
