Steph is having a birthday?
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Elementary was going to suck because a Holmes adaptation with an American lead is doomed to fail.
L&O:CI did not suck.
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

But Jonny Lee Miller is British, and in the preview I saw he was playing a British Holmes, or are they referring to Lucy Liu as Watson.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, that makes the idiocy even better! I didn't realize he's not even playing American.
Home from the vet. My cat is an old man.

Happy birthday Steph!
I am in the mountains where it is raining, which is not allowed in the summer in California. Booo! Also my niece had an hourlong tantrum at midnight, which was fun.
It is supposed to clear later, i hope.
Damn i wish i could get swype for the kindle...

Teppy day! Wishing you gluten-free cake and a lot of happy, lady.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Holy crap, it's mah birfday???
Thanks, nice peoples! There will be sushi later, and then hanging out with friends at our favorite gay-friendly bar. (I tried to describe it in Bitches -- it's not a gay bar whose patrons are exclusively gay guys, or lesbians -- it's basically a neighborhood corner bar that I think is gay-owned; they fly the Pride flag out front, and it has a mellow vibe of everyone's-welcome-unless-you're-a-bigot. A large handful of our friends are queer and/or trans*, so it's a very nice, welcoming place to hang out. They often have a band named Yanni [or Yoni?] DiFranco playing.)
And the Ulta store offers a free brow wax on one's birthday for people who belong to their frequent shopper club (or whatever it's called). So I am going to drive up there and avail myself of that, because my brows need serious wrangling.

Happy birthday!
Marketed and got some more peas. Stopped by my ex-neighbors' new place and delivered some veggies and cilantro-jalapeño hummus and got the tour. Loki got a brief taste of outside while I was unloading the car and is now bemoaning his indoor fate rather loudly.
I should throw in a load of laundry....Or I can sit and listen to the radio and eat my lunch.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Happy Birthday Steph!
I have been to the market, out for breakfast and have hacked away at shrubbery. I get the rest of the day off, right?
