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

Friends don't let friends dress like name their kids after The Raven.

You mean The Crow, right?

Kat, I bought Mindy's book, understanding that she's not a Sedaris, but wanting a watered down version--at least someone I'd want to get drunk with and be bitchy about strangers with. No dice. Not the snarky vacation read I'd been looking for.

From watching the two episodes of her show so far, I think it's clear that she's funny. I just don't like her. Or fake her. There is no way I'm going to stick around any longer for a show that focussed on a lead whose endearing characteristics I haven't found yet. I mean, she has characteristics I have shared, even though it's been a long while--wanting a relationship--but that's where it ends, because the relationships she wants and the ways she interacts with people fail to keep my sympathetic attention.

And I'm not the "laugh at the lead" sort of sitcom watcher, so not my show. But I can tell that there are clever minds involved, just not simpatico ones.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You mean The Crow, right?

I did.

Quiet morning at Chez Zmayhem as Matilda plays with her new stencil set she got for her birthday, JZ slept in and I nibbled on some thoroughly decadent Nicaraguan cake (Tres Leche).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EVERYONE!!

For some reason, this day was already full, before I knew of all the related birthdays here. I could tell you one famous person birthday I share (everyone looks that up for themselves, right?), none for my mother and sister, but at least two for my father and a litter of puppies. His was always the day when everybody was born.

Because books.

I can't remember who my birthday mates are, but Sara shares hers with Louisa May Alcott, which only excites her because I made a big deal about it, but it's still sweet.
