Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

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

Timelies all!

Nova is meowing incessantly at us. Probably wants dinner.

When he finally ascends the throne, you can call him Jefe.

I doubt I'll be alive then. I might see his father hit the throne, but no way his son.

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

Louis Louis...me gotta go now...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My mother pointed out that Michael is too Irish to be in there.

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

So, new program at my university: submit to a "health screening," or pay an extra $100 a month for health insurance. The screening seems to be cholesterol, glucose, weight, waist circumference, and filling out an online survey about health and wellness habits.

A hundred dollars a MONTH?! That's horrifying. There's some challenge thing going on at my office, but you just get free six weeks at the gym. (at the gym I'll never go to, because it's full of coworkers.)

We've got that thing too, Hil, we attend quarterly lectures and fill out quizzes at the end. So far nothing invasive or participatory.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

A month????

We get a one time $100 bonus if we do submit, but I haven't yet because I a) have a little paranoid/conspiracy theory that it will be someday used against me and b) I am fat and will fail the BMI, and possibly waist circumference. I used to work in the department that administers them, and they do everything so manually that I can't believe that the data can't be traced back to me somehow.
