And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

I just replied to an email from a production company asking me if I knew of any goth/macabre families interested in being involved in a "lighthearted reality-based TV series". I tried to be as friendly and professional as possible while saying that most goths are wary of appearing on any "reality-based" TV, because of those shows being scripted/edited for Maximum Drama!, and because the shows often encourage a point and laugh at the freaks mentality. Let's see if the production company answers!

But... but! I might be able to think of some people who deserve Reality Television.

Though not the money that could come with. So nevermind.

Husband says you should also look at the hole in the freezer and make sure it's not plugged with ice.

It suddenly occurred to me as I was complaining that I probably should check on something like that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I bet the families on Wife Swap (or whatever) don't actually get much money. Edit: The internet says $20K, which is not nothing! But also, check this angry person's site: [link]

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So a student whose dissertation committee I was on sent me a lovely note and crocheted a SCARF! No one has crocheted anything for me since I was a baby.

I am all up in my feelings and had to blow my nose.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

There's a hole in the freezer?

Dear Liza, dear Liza.

I think it's there to drain any moisture from defrosting.

Edit: Damn, I was way late on that one.
