Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Well considering Lord Grantham was her prom date

She went to prom with Bernie??

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

I came into work wondering about clusterfuck A, to discover I'm essentially to blame for clusterfuck B (I should have arranged more testing yesterday--I tested 3/5, and one of the other fifths is broken--thanks, life). I should just yank the bandaid off of A, shouldn't I?

They identified that skeleton found under the carpark in Leicester as Richard III. He's going to be buried with full honors in their cathedral next year. History is so cool.

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

They identified that skeleton found under the carpark in Leicester as Richard III.

I've been thinking about all the cultural stuff that accrues to Richard: the movie The Goodbye Girl and Richard Dreyfus' performance of Richard III; Al Pacino's movie Searching for Richard; Josephine Tey's The Daughter of Time; Blackadder; Robert Louis Stevenson's The Black Arrow; the horror movie The Tower of London, the punk single "Ghosts of Princes in Towers," how Richard informs certain characters in Game of Thrones, et al.

I hope they do a facial reconstruction. The skull looks like it's in good shape.

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

The skull looks like it's in good shape.

Except for the mortal blow and the seven other wounds to the head by vengeful Tudor soldiers that stabbed at his corpse.

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

There was pie in the kitchen when I made tea this morning.

I'm going to make another cuppa, and if there's still pie, that's a sign. For my tummy.

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 kind of pie?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

They identified that skeleton found under the carpark in Leicester as Richard III.

Wow! That's so cool. I saw that they were going to announce, so I figured it was, because I doubted they'd set up a big thing to say, nope, not him.

Well considering Lord Grantham was her prom date...she may be a little biased.

Ha! I bet he bought her a nice corsage. I love that photo so much.

So I'm totally chilling in the coffeeshop during work hours because I got to work and found out that literally half my students were out today, sick or otherwise.

So I rewarded myself with a caramel macchiato.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Someone needs to make a "I Parked with Richard III" bumper sticker.
