So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I remember solemnly swearing not to write Mr. Belvedere porn, but not the context that caused me to do so. Let's be real, though. In order for me to write it, I'd have to rewatch the show, and the fact that it's not streaming on Netflix is enough of a barrier to entry to stop that impulse in its tracks. My vengeance is too lazy.

Yeah, Not Streaming winds up being a HUGE barrier for me. Sometimes even when I own the DVDs...

Sometimes even when I own the DVDs...

If I have something on DVD, I need to be near a DVD player! Which I am not around as much as I am a device that can stream video.

I'm trying to plan a multi-city work+fun trip out to California. Right now I think I may fly into San Jose to work out of our Mountain View office for a few days, and catch a shuttle up to San Francisco for about a week. Then I can hop on a flight to L.A. to go to Escapade and fly back to Chicago from there.

They should fly you to work in the Seattle office at some point, damn it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Did you know that there's a MUSICAL based on "50 Shades of Grey"?

It's playing at the theatre here next week. I really have no idea why.

It's 62 degrees in my apartment. Can I just hibernate until spring?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Too freaking cold here. I wonder when my feet will be warm again...

"Based on" or "Spoofing"? I knew the latter existed. If the former, I don't think I want to know.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Did you know that there's a MUSICAL based on "50 Shades of Grey"?

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

Currently on a conference call. The consultant just informed us that "The thing with you guys is, the client is always literally hovering in the background."

Now I really want to meet more of our clients.
