Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet  

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.

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

Finally comments worth reading--for the sheer hilarity of it all. The article itself is a bit dismissive of the furore over Yahoo buying Tumblr, but I wish I felt the comments were buying in with satire, rather than a) missing the point and/or b) being the point.

Just had a reach-out-and-touch lunch with the CIO--they're encouraging accessibility by allowing people to volunteer to have lunch with her periodically. It was pretty interesting, even if I did talk the second most--I feel I asked a couple good questions. So there. t /brown-nose

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

This was the summer between K and grade 1, and she wanted her ears to show, because you can see lemming ears.

Too cute!

No news on any front. Looks like I'll be walking to work tomorrow.

My cats sure sleep a lot.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I AM CAUGHT UP ON TV.

I AM NOW ALLOWED ON THE INTERNET!

(Tragically, this means I have nothing new to throw on my second monitor while I do things, so instead, I'm throwing on Fortysomething. Again.)

What have you been watching?

Supernatural, Parks and Rec, Doctor Who, The Mindy Project, Castle, and The New Girl.

Plus, I had to stay off the Internet until I saw Trek 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Awww, we have no overlap! I was hoping you watched Elementary.

Also, you misspelled Trek 2: LENS FLARE!

I think it is LENS FLAIR, peasant.

Fandom too full of insulting neurotypical asswipes, so I'm on a break from it, despite having enjoyed the eps I watched.

not your mom's socks.

Sox, so very glad that DH and sprog are OK. Everything else is negotiable.
Absolutely agreed.

I'm so far from caught up on tv. And I just got a little spoiled for S3 GoT. To be expected, I guess.
