Jesse did you go get cigarettes? Or are you entirely stir crazy.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

I never ended up getting my cider earlier, so I'll do my cocktail hour on West Coast time now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse did you go get cigarettes?
I did! One newsstand guy was there and open.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Also, earthquake in China today. It's been an eventful, in a bad way, week.
It hit in Sichuan province, where Biyi grew up, and where they had the earthquake in 2008 that killed 90,000 people. (Strictly, 70,000 confirmed dead, 20,000 missing.)

I just discovered that my favorite local Asian Bistro delivers to my address. I had thought we were outside the delivery zone. This is dangerous information. (And yes, food is being delivered!)
I'm still stunned they captured him alive. I still don't expect much in the way of answers, but alive gives the chance.

USGS tells me it was a big quake. The fact that I get alerts from USGS is just sad.
Ah well, more Pimm's and I'll feel less sad.

I love all the people on the streets of Watertown, cheering for every police car and fire truck, etc.

Because books.
An earthquake? Jesus.
What?!?!? I assumed it was muffeletta-level knowledge on the board.
I think I always confused it with Mr. Pib, which was a kind of soda when I was growing (may be still, I have no idea). You're talking to a really unadventurous drinker. I'm fine with a Corona or a Bud Light, and I only like sweeter white wines or sangria, and the hardest cocktail I do is a Canadian Club and ginger ale.

I'm having a g&t.
And can I say how out of sorts not swimming makes me? I've felt dopey all evening. I usually am more alert than this.
I just heard the EQ news.
Man, I'm glad this week is over.
Now if only my vacuum will cooperate this weekend. And the belts arrive tomorrow. They left Brooklyn this morning.
I might have to borrow a vac. The fur situation is baaaaad. I dragged my foot across the carpet and the wad is the size of a small mouse.
