Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

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.

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

it does trigger my skeptic senses

As in he didn't apply for a job with it?

Co-worker offered me popcorn with artificial sweetener on it. At least I checked before touching it, but I have a pile of cold popcorn on my desk. It's hysterical how he can't taste it at all, but the people who he's shared it with all think it's overwhelming.

I stumbled across Paul McCrane yesterday. I can't work out if it was just sunny, or he was trying to be undercover--I ended up deciding the guy in shades (he'd been in traffic next to me, and then pulled into Frys when I did) wasn't him because not ginger, and if he hadn't asked for help at the entrance I'd have gone on thinking it wasn't him. But no way that voice wasn't the amputee doctor/regenerating mutant killer/other yelly dangerous person.

Not ginger...hmm.

Heaven saved me from "I talked to a black girl on this African topic, so I know".

Because books.

Paul McCrane was a serious ginger in Fame. Also adorable, and he sang!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is some bullshit: The News and Documentary Emmys ceremony isn't black tie! But the gift bag does have a ton of candy and cookies in it, so that's something.

Nothing can be trusted, but whatever his birth status (drapes? carpet?) he had dark brown hair on Monday.

"Cleopatra was white, so all ancient Egyptians and their gods were white, as far as I was told by the black girl I worked with."

I wish I had the walk-away gene.

Check it out! He was so adorable.

Yeah.

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

I'm reminded of my friend Ian, who had a very large iguana that he'd take for walks. He said that it was a chick-magnet -- at least for the type of women he would be interested in.

I would be that type of woman who wouldn't be able to resist stopping and petting the giant iguana. In such situations I often find myself more focused on the animal than its keeper, though, so their intent to meet chicks is thwarted. Their pet met the chick.

That resume is funny if not-real and sad if real.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

If I ever saw someone apply for a job with that resume, I would never stop talking about it.
