Heh. Last weekend in Columbus there were a lot of drunk lesbians snickering about "sacks". Sacks of fries and burgers at White Castle, but whatev'.
Yes, well, then Emmett and Jen are right on your wavelength.
Giles: I jump out of the circle, jump back in, and, and, shake my gourd. Buffy: Hey, I think I know this ritual. The ancient shamans were next called upon to do the Hokey-Pokey and to turn themselves around.
'Dirty Girls'
Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

JZ! Where are you on the change in Catholic Mass liturgy?!
I mean, I don't go to church, so it's freaking me out that it's going to change EVERYTHING. I mean, no longer "Peace be with you/and also with you"!? That's crazycakes!! I'm all upset and I don't even GO.

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 mean, no longer "Peace be with you/and also with you"!? That's crazycakes!!
Really?!?
That was the only part of vaguely-affiliated Catholicism that I was good at, honestly.

Jilli, I'm assumung the the Damned interview never did happen because we would have heard the squeeing. If so, I'm sorry, that sucks. I did hear back from Mark, and yeah, the Shack Shakers finished up their bit of that tour in Chicago, so he couldn't help. Sorry!

Swouncing
skipping (the "sigh" is spelled in that word, too, even if not all the letters are there) because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is aurelia's birthday.
Happy birthday, aurelia! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Also, since I won't be online for tomorrow's shabbat, I'll already post now that tomorrow is Astarte's birthday, and send lots of early wishes in advance.
Short Fridays and lovely weekends to all!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thanks, Nilly!
I have officially stayed up too late. I don't have to be at work until noon, but I will be working for 10 hours. Woohoo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy (yesterday?) birthday, aurelia!
But the cake is easier, and very forgiving.
Hey! Isn't pie supposed to be the easiest??

Maria, I'm so sorry that you had such a rough night, and I'll be sending lots if ~ma to you and your DH today.
There's no cure for AIDS, but I know people diagnosed 20 years ago.
True, a couple of my closest friends are HIV+, and you wouldn't know it unless they told you. And they're in serodiscordant LTRs, too. And they're my age, and I plan to grow old with them.
Happy birthday, aurelia!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
That was the only part of vaguely-affiliated Catholicism that I was good at, honestly.
The "and also with you" part is being replaced with "and with your spirit."
