'Lies My Parents Told Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
*waves at the Kat/ita meet up*
We are back home from the cemetery. We had the unveiling of Liz's grave. It was simple and informal and I think we did OK even if I completely botched the reading of the Kaddish. And then we took the kids for dim sum. Isaac loved it. I was sort of overcome by the memories it all brought back, but in a good way. Plus there was turnip cake.
*hiccups*
oops
I'm sure you did great, Burrell.
That sounds really nice, Burrell.
Tea update - TJ's Pumpkin Spice with cream and sugar is even more pumpkin pie like than without. Yum.
This is Sleepy Hollow-related, but only tangentially so:
Tim texted from camping to say, "Tent is great! No bears, no cliffs."
I texted back, "How do I know this isn't a bear texting me from your phone?"
His reply? "Fist bump."
Aw.
If bears watch Sleepy Hollow we are all in trouble.
Oh, shit. I didn't think about that. Dang sneaky bears.
So I didn't realize bronies were actually a real thing in the world, until my cousin told me about taking her 6 year old to see the MLP movie, at a matinee, and the theater was full of rowdy men! Come on people -- if you're going to a kids' movie, at least wait until evening.
The first showing of GofG at 10 AM was nearly 3/4s full. Holiday crowd, I guess. It makes me cry a log (unsurprisingly) but is so much fun I guess I'll have to buy it. I'm looking forward to finding out who Peter Quill's father is. Maybe he'll turn out to be related to Agent of SHIELD's Skye.
I then had miso and chicken teriyaki and gyoza for lunch. Note to self, do not eat a tub of popcorn two hours before Yamato's gigantic lunch combos.
