Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We're staying close to home tonight. Mostly because of Mr. S, but also because it's below freezing here. A few friends are coming by. We'll go to dinner, then hang out for a while.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Made tonight's ham last night, so ham sandwiches for NYE dinner. Fine by me. Also planning on baking up the rest of the sugar cookie dough for maximum snackage. If I get really ambitious, I might make a loaf of hardo bread in ita's honor. I've been hankering for it all holiday season, and it would really make the sandwiches special. But it would also mean devoting the whole day to baking.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I went outside. It was terrible. Not recommended.

ltc just took the childproof handle right off the door handle. What am I going to do with this kid?

Our wings are not tired.

The New Years shows on television have been awful in recent years so I am more likely going to work on my backlog of recorded shows.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I've been watching Planet Earth II on Netflix.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, I saw a little of that last week, and it's really stunning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I screwed up my commuter-rail timing, so I missed the earlier train, but NOW I'm ready and the next one isn't for hours! Feh.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Well my plans for today, minimal though they were, have been derailed. It is a bad foot day - yes, this is a thing in my life now. So on top of limping, my hips are tight and in pain. And the chronic pain had set of the Headache of Doom.

My good meds are upstairs and I just don't have the spoons.

And the thought that I well be even more helpless for weeks post surgery just feeds the headache.

My whining did not need to post twice.

So...does Uber or Lyft offer frequent flyer rewards?
