All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

'suela - go. With or without Goldstar. I know those guys, I auditioned for that production (damned "making a living", interfering with my artistic life), and you will not regret it. It is so very worth it.
Hah! Thanks, one of my book club pals is going in a couple of weeks, so I'm going to tag along with her. I'm stoked!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I want to know more about that production. I'll expect a full report.
Avon has been winning a war of attrition on the 7 am feeding time. Monday morning I was started awake at 4:15 or so and he was standing on the edge of the bed, STARING AT ME.
When Petri started doing that I had to become very strict about making him wait for the alarm (and strict with myself about setting an alarm and actually get up). It was hilarious when I woke up before the alarm one day to see him staring down the alarm clock.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, I'm re-reading Harriet the Spy, and two things: One is that everything I thought I remembered about Harriet is actually from The Long Secret. The other is that Harriet and Sally Draper are about the same age, since Harriet was written in 1964, and she's 11.
So there's that.

Revenge: The finale wasn't as good as I was expecting it to be, but did they really just kill Victoria? Or will we find out next season that she wasn't really on that plane. And would the newscasters really be told who was on the plane before the relatives could be notified?

Revenge:
no WAY was Victoria on that plane! No way.
Can I just say that I really really really want Uma Thurman to play the mother. I desperately want a Kill Bill callback in this show. And this is the way to do it. Seriously. We have the sensei. This can be done ABC. Do it .

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Revenge: le nubian that is a brilliant idea. I did get reminded of Kill Bill a few times while watching this show. Do you think the daughter is dead? And do you think that Emily's mother is going to be a big bad next season? They seemed to be implying that she was one of the senior partners in this whole conspiracy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
sj,
no WAY is the daughter dead. The only person who might be dead is the mistress who should have died from the taxicab bounce months ago. She kind of doesn't serve a purpose right now.
I hope that the mother is the "big bad" ala "Alias." That would be some good soapy mess. I also hope Jack's girlfriend gives birth to a half-Japanese baby because I will DIE laughing if the sensei has been messing around.
