Boy, there's nothing more fun than a work conference call when you're home sick.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Hey look, Dana's (inside) pants are on fire.

And now the meeting's over, mostly because everyone's insanely busy. And the phrase "fire drill" was used. Which is just great.

While I understand the concept of the term in corporate speak, it does make me want to ask if filing downstairs in a swift but orderly fashion and then milling around aimlessly in a designated location is really the right metaphor to be using.
Man. Do kids these days play Hot Potato?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was on my way crankily home, wondering wtf I would have for dinner, when I came across someone with free hummus and pretzel samples. Yay!

She's had two television characters named after her, and both died horrible deaths at the hands of psychopaths.
THREE characters! One of whom did not die horribly. IJS.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sorry, lisah.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
OH YEAH! I forgot about that one. Mostly because she did not die a horrible death.
Maybe I can get on American Horror Story. Even if I die a horrible death, I can still be recurring.

They should just call it "This is going to suck."
