I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

There were three Davids, in either the first or second TableTalk thread, and Dana insisted three was too many, so two of them assumed the pseuds of Manservant Hecubus and Knut Hoarfrost.

I remember the network getting weird because of Columbine and refusing to air Earshot, and the Buffista tape tree, and Joss saying, "Bootleg the puppy." (I had that tape until we moved--long after we had a VCR)

Our HR people definitely use LinkedIn to troll for candidates.

Finally got to wear my snowpants this year! And man, there is nothing as happy as dogs in a fresh snowfall.

My dog used to LOSE HER MIND if she got to play in the snow. It was amazing.

Late to the party, but I don't remember how I found this board! I don't know if it was a search result or linked on another forum or what. What I do remember is that I read the FAQ and decided that you were clearly my kind of people.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Haircolor experiment: FAIL. Pastel pink on the box turned into weird bright orange on my head. Will color with good old reliable Sparks in the afternoon.

[Thought better of it and have made an appointment with an actual professional for tomorrow.]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Jessica, which one did you use? I like Splat!, but I've only used their red & crimson colors.

This was a Feria color. I've been burned by Feria in the past, but the color on the box was so pretty! The color on my head is so not!

I made cookies. Because, of course. They're oddly spherical.

zuisa, I forgot to mention before, if you're in the Boston area (which I think you are unless I am misremembering?) check out Tufts Dental School for cheap toothcare.

I used to be! I just moved from the Boston area to south Florida. Thank you for the recommendation, though!

Oh weird, Jess! I hadn't seen feria getting into that kind of color. I like them for my brown hair going brown, but...
