Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

I think it's just a question of practicing in your upper range. I know several singers much older than you who continue to sing high (sometimes excessively high, in the case of one descant-loving member of my church!)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Voices change to an extent, but mostly through your teens and twenties. The more you use it, and the more you challenge your range, the more of a range you will have.

(Also, thanks a lot, Jesse. WOOOOORTHY is the LAAAAAMB that was SLAAAAAIIIIN!)

The plumber that was supposed to show up today just called to cancel. I put on pants and everything.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's what I meant by not every note, but of course there are older first sopranos, as Ouise says! I've probably lost one whole step over the past 20 years, and I smoke!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

java, are you close enough that you could do a separate lunch or dinner with gift exchange with the ones you'd like to gift? That's what I generally end up doing with my girlfriends with huge families that I'm not especially close to. We get together and hang out for a while, exchange gifts (and because I like doing presents, sometimes gifts for their hubbies, if I consider them friends [or have a theme I like to hit] and for their kids). Sometimes we end up not "doing Christmas" until well into January, but it's nice to find the time to be together along with fun gifting.

What do you singer folks do to practice? I miss having a really good voice. Just sing along with stuff every day? Scales?

I'm quiet because I'm shortly going into my sixth meeting of the day and I'm dying of the tired.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Well, that's a better earworm than what was stuck in my head.
