Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, undignified. We're Yankees!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I keened like a banshee over my cat, so at least you are mourning human beings

I'm pretty sure my vets & staff are the only folk outside my family who have seen me when a complete blubbering mess. And I usually have held it together better for family!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I cried like a damn fool when we put the dalmatian to sleep, and (although I feel like a jerk for saying this) she wasn't even my favorite of the dogs. I can't even contemplate Kato not being around.

But that's okay, because we've discussed it, and he's going to stick around for 50 years. So we're good.

Because books.

It makes me smile whenever you talk about the pets, Steph, because I remember before you moved in you were worried about allergies. I can't imagine you without the animals now.

I had the EXACT same discussion with Chile Pepper!

What Amy said.

I'm in denial that the Loki-kitten is 5 now. FIVE. Ok, so he's huge, but he's still a kitten, right?

Loki is FIVE? Wow.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Jesse - I had a total moment at the Maroon 5 concert last week that made me think of you! Between Kelly Clarkson and M5, the venue was playing music videos and they played "I Wish". I was one of 7 people in the audience singing. The other 6 were parents of the tweens they brought to the show. Hilarious.

I remember before you moved in you were worried about allergies. I can't imagine you without the animals now.

Well, I am allergic to the cats. I take a lot of antihistamines, and they aren't allowed in the bedroom because if they took over the bed, I would be sleeping on nothing but fur. But I can pet them and they can sit on my lap, and as long as I don't shove my face in their fur, or -- VERY important -- don't rub my eyes after petting them, I'm basically okay.

No dog allergy, though, which is a great good thing, since I attack-hug Kato about a billion times a day. (And the hilarious part is that he dislikes hugs about as much as I do, but he's a good boy, so he doesn't pull away. He just stands there and sort of *leans* away as much as he can without actually moving his feet. I have a picture somewhere of him doing it to Tim. It's hysterical.)
