Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What is the last thing that made you smile unexpectedly?

Things have been kinda' slow at work lately, so I was getting a little nervous about my long-term prospects here. But I just found out 10 minutes ago that a client of ours is getting a new accounting system which will mean a whole bunch of work for us for years. (Plus learning new stuff, which is always good for programmers.)

So I smiled unexpectedly 10 minutes ago. Still smiling.

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

Nice, Tommy!

I've been saving money in case of unemployment, but now that's less of a concern. Also, I just got my x-mas bonus yesterday. In conclusion, hookers and blow.

ION, Where the Wilde Things Are

And when he came to the place where the wilde things are they roared witticisms and gnashed their terrible quips. Lucy Knisley imagines a journey to where the Oscar Wilde things are. Max appears dissatisfied with it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The last thing that made me smile was the (late, I know) discovery that Benedict Cumberpatch is playing TWO characters in The Hobbit instead of just the one I knew about.

Now I'm smiling even more.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Seeing a hummingbird at my window feeder this morning. The feeder is close to the window and clear, so sometimes I can see hummingbird tongue lapping up nectar.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ryan was sick today. Spent much of the afternoon vomiting. Tonight, after he started running a fever, we gave him some paracetamol, which he was able to keep down. Anyway, the thing that made me smile was when he then asked if we might also have some hiccup medicine. He's now sacked out on his kiddie-sized fold-out sofa. IT IS ADORABLE.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Jessica, I didn't know there were two! Huh. I'm not a big Bandersnatch fan, but that's news I would have expected to hear through the fannish grapevine.

Poor little Ryan, I hope he feels better soon.

What is the last thing that made you smile unexpectedly?

Erm. I got invited to a New Year's Party. Oh, and my GSD tried to climb into bed with me last night.

Woops, no--the last thing that made me smile unexpectedly was this set of photos: [link]

How lovely is that?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

IT IS ADORABLE.

I don't believe that for a second.

I just cracked myself up using my predecessor's DRAFT stamp. I realize it's not that funny.
