I had to call the State House in Massachusetts on Monday, and had fun listening to the Bahhhston accents on both the menu options and the actual people I was speaking with.
Don't you have an elsewhere to be?

Love that logo! I just knew it was for Martha Graham as soon as the animation began.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I read that Wonder Woman isn't up for Fall, since a lot of retooling needs to be done. Also, she's pretty bloodthirsty (torture and killing of non-bad-guys).
Man, this little cold is making me feel disproportionately miserable. I know it's not that big a deal, but breathing and not coughing would be great.
Also great would be my work laptop not crashing once a day and losing documents. For some reason, Excel's auto-save seems to be picking and choosing what it saves, and it didn't choose this new document I created yesterday. Upgrade me to Win 7, already.

That is an awesome logo!
ION, I got quoted extensively in a newspaper article this morning. I don't think I come off too badly, but... Sigh.

Rumors: L&O: LA cancelled, Wonder Woman greenlit.
I'm not surprised by L&O LA, I watched it a few times and found it terrible.

not your mom's socks.
you sound fine Consuela - despite what I'm reading as some structural editorializing on the part of the writer.

Heh. Yeah, she spoke to the other parties first, so there was an assumption that all the problems are caused by us, when in fact (based on the old files I've been looking at), the local folks have been just as difficult.
But local political pressure is, in fact, helpful: it gets people's attention, and maybe I can get the funding for the work.
I didn't tell her anything I wouldn't tell anyone else, but TBH it looks more damning than pragmatic out there in black and white...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I swear I look nothing like any pictures of me ever taken and more like a heap of grey animal turds.
UNTRUE!!
Lisa, I could (and might!) look at your wedding pictures ALL DAY LONG.
