Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

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.

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

Or is that too inappropriate?

I thought that concept didn't exist with your job? Or is that a narrower audience than this?

My mind goes so completely blank, all I can think is how I'm so very not interesting.

Oh, good lord, woman. Think of your hobbies!

My only professionally taken head shot is krav, so it's always easy for me to kick off conversation with that. I mean, you don't have to be interesting--just the things you do, but you're interesting anyway, so too bad.

Damn, I missed calling home today. Why? I've accomplished exactly nothing more than making a tasty cup of hot chocolate. Anything could have been put aside for an hour. I haven't even watched TV.

now watching S4E1 because HOW COULD I NOT AFTER S3 Finale. jeebus.

Welcome to a new era! They had to resolve that a different way from how they intended to--do you want to know what the writer's strike prevented them from developing? It would have been a hugely different show in many regards.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I have no idea what to write down.

"Strangers have eaten candy necklaces off my neck while I wore leather pants and embodied a neologism."

This should be fun. To bed for now. Work needs to go really fast tomorrow.

Once you're clear of S4 there are no more plot overlaps with their idea and what's onscreen, for the record.

In true horror, I just read a Cracked article written by an American sex slave, and I don't understand how we can be the same species as her family...utterly boggling and a fair bit disturbing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Think of your hobbies!

Which I am happy to talk about at great length if they come up in conversation, but cannot seem to think of at all if someone asks if I have any. I should probably keep a list in Evernote.

Because books.

-t, just think "bunnies."

You have a point. Also I remembered that I already used the Playboy one for an icebreaker with a different set of people, but at least we were drinking at the time.

I draw the line at sharing Too Much Candy with my coworkers.

Maybe the other one could be about interviewing at Playboy. Or is that too inappropriate?

I think that's awesome!

I made it to Warsaw last night, limping like crazy (I have at least six blisters, apparently from wearing he same pair of shoes for two weeks while walking over 10 miles per day?) Got some food and then passed out...slept for 12 hours. Bed was so comfy, which was NOT the case of the place I stayed in Krakow. So, no sightseeing here, but I'm up and packed and showered and need to get some breakfast. Cab comes at 11AM and then I fly to Dubai!
