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.
Dawn: You're not fleeing. You're... moving at a brisk pace. Buffy: Quaintly referred to in some cultures as the Big Scaredy Run Away.
'Touched'
Natter 70: Hookers and Blow

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
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.
They should just call it "This is going to suck."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
In my home sick TV-watching, I am watching a rerun of some reality show where they're auditioning Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. This is kind of terrifying.

That's it! Next season, we're killing you horribly. Hmph.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I don't see truck nuts much, or maybe I have stopped noticing them.
Or maybe they are more popular in California? Who knows, but I would put not seeing them in the Win category.
Love the bio, Allyson.
Also love the wee snippet of the Kristen and Allyson Show!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A guy I wouldn't sleep with at university wrote a character with my name in his scintillating sci fi fantasy book. (It hinged upon demon and daemon and UNIX and eunuchs sounding the same--good times!). My character was blinded in a horrible accident. Which I was supposed to find flattering enough to drop trou.
Then again, this was the same guy that hacked the university email, read mine, and tried to make me feel bad for telling friends in emails that I didn't like him. Last time I found a picture of him it was a FB icon with him with an apparently hot, taller than him, chick on each arm.
Man, I missed that window. So sad.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha I totally only watch that show when I'm home sick, but that seems to always coincide with a marathon? I dunno.
The bio is fabulous.
Today my students all blew off the day. One even left both her new bass and the old guitar it was replacing. I don't even.
Next week's the party, so I guess I'm giving up for the year?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The cheerleader candidates just got a lecture about how to eat right. That was depressing.
The fitness guy is named Jay. Is it a rule that all sidekicks on reality shows need to be named Jay?
