Really wishing I had leftovers from Lori and K's turkeys now.
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
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.
I am too cold. I'm fine with weather outside, but I would appreciate more than 60 degrees inside. (I've got several windows insulated, but I need to do more.)
Connie, I am so sorry.
I just realized we had several desserts missing from the usual Thanksgiving spread, and I missed them! Especially the key lime pie. I'm going to have to see if I can find out if the usual person is bringing it next year, and make one myself if not.
I have a cherry pie waiting for me at home. I know what I'm having for dinner.
Mmmm....cherry pie.
Hey, did you guys know that you can watch Kings on the NBC site? [link] That show was just a couple of years ahead of its time.
Oh, hey, I liked that show. I'll have to figure out if I saw all the episodes or not.
That TJ's Hatch salsa is no joke. I used half a cup to season a pound of ground beef and it's pretty hot.
Good luck with the new gig, Kat. I hadn't thought about it in terms of brand new students in the middle of the year.
I'm sorry, Connie. I'm glad you have pie.
Blast it. I promised to write something about "family in science fiction fandom" for someone's long-running fanzine, and now I wish I hadn't. It's been a long time since I wrote anything intended for public consumption, and this guy is starting to get on my nerves again. (I've known him for 35 years. He's not a bad person, but he can't seem to help being an ass.) It's hard enough getting the creative spark flying again. Now I just don't want to. But I promised, and I'm sick of not following through on these kinds of promises. So I've got to find some kind of authentic feeling of family around science fiction fandom to write about, even though I haven't really felt that way in a couple decades.
I had another Thanksgiving dinner at a neighbor's tonight, complete with leftovers. Mmmmmm, such good stuffing!
