Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Probably Branagh does too. Maybe Emma Thompson couldn't stand it anymore...

Thank you all for the kind wishes!

I got a really fabulous birthday dinner last night here: [link]

And I allowed myself to have some Cheetos after my frozen TJ's lunch. Living wildly!

Yes, I should listen to the Messiah. I need to make my own Christmas spirit.

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

When has this place not had TJ's suggestions?

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

Are you thinking like a gift basket they can divide up and take home? Or snacks that can be distributed about the workspace?

Buying food for people I don't know, not my strong suit.

iTunes 11 was just a visual slap in the face. I'm sure I'll be used to it in a day or so, but wow does it look different!

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

You can enable View->Show Sidebar in iTunes 11 to get something like the old look back.

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

iTunes 11 was just a visual slap in the face. I'm sure I'll be used to it in a day or so, but wow does it look different!

If you go up to "View-->Show sidebar" and then turn on Column Browser, it will look more or less like the old versions.
