Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Yeah, Madhur Jaffrey seems like the way to go, but I'm not sure which one to choose. She doesn't have an Indian one that's exclusively vegetarian, and I don't want to choose one that's like half full of recipes we won't use. Hil, I was considering Lord Krishna's Cuisine too. The reviews said it doesn't use any onions or garlic, which are staples of our kitchen and, I would say, of most of the Indian food I've eaten. Do you miss the onions and garlic in the recipes you've made from it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ok, I am dealing with this one work thing and then I swear I will stop checking! I can't decide if it's worth taking the work mail off my phone altogether for the next three days...

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

"What I tell you three times is true", so one more movie.

I will find it. This is meant to be.

Also...fucking exhausted, thanks for nothing Monday night.

Jesse, take it off your phone.

is this the first time that there's been a 4-generation line of succession for royals?

Nope, and the last time was a little more than a century ago: Victoria, Edward VII, George V, and Edward VIII / George VI were all alive from the mid-1890s to Vicky's death in 1901.

Oh, I totally got lost in Wikipedia looking this up last night an learned all about May of Teck, who was engaged to one prince of wales and when he died got engaged to the new one, and morganatic marriages, and nannies...

So, the Good Stuff just got like 300 new followers, and I have no idea why. I can't tell from the Activity!
