Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm constantly getting LinkedIn friend requests from authors whom I've edited one paper for. I don't actually know you, dude, and may never work with you again; why would I add you to my professional contacts?

Glad Devi is cooperating!

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

There's a gay character on Happy Endings who sometimes has a bf. And The New Normal, though I don't watch that so I don't know how demonstrative that couple might be.

I'm afraid of LinkedIn, I don't understand it. I should really get over that and, like, use it for its intended purpose. Some day, maybe.

Our wings are not tired.

LinkedIn used to be a very straightforward and useful site. It is still probably useful, but I loathe that it's trying to be like twitter and Facebook et al now. Didn't it realize how much more professional its old site was? Sigh.

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

I know Colin's role on Happily Divorced has been stripped free of suggestion, but that's every relationship I saw, not just the gay one.

A bit tangentially: FX, what up? If you don't know Archer, you should see it. Not sure what the right d-word is but it's d(emented/epraved/ebauched/isturbed) spycraft animation. Also, really funny, and earning its MA rating.

Legit is....well, that was the straight interrupted M/M handjob, so... interesting choice. And in The Americans, the Felicity chick refers to having stuck her finger up the butt of a guy she was getting secrets for and appearing none the worse for wear. Still, lots of people are expanding the boundaries, but still not the same amount in all the directions yet.

What are the FB and twitter things that LinkedIn does? I use it only to make connectons--for that it doesn't seem to ave los= ries

Am nervous. About to head to ER (RR) because my neuro swears up and down they're ready for me this week. In fact, they're experimenting on me to see how I tolerate the higher dosage, and if the answer is well, home nurse next week.

So, in your sleep, wish me deep breathing and alertness.

Where the fuck did my taxi-calling app go? I have a bandaid to rip off...

I hope the ER treats you right this time, ita.

I hope it goes well.

I've got to brave the Target parking lot pre-Superbowl. My goggles have failed 3 consecutive days- that means they are done. Sports' shop in in the same center. Oh and TJs. And then there is the inch or so of snow. I predict mayhem.

Whatever's happening, they are in no rush. And I'm sharing the room with someone snoring deeply through Martin.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm getting ready to drive Bob to a half marathon... A race I also paid $$$ for but have to forego for injury. Am trying not to be resentful. Maybe I'm exaggerating but an injury during training is almost as bad as genocide.
