Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Augh, my CW is super-stressed because she has too much stuff going on, including some personal stuff, and I sympathize, but I really don't like being put in the position of being her therapist.

Agree with t. Mostly because my whole body is in pain for various reasons (some of which I am unclear on—wtf body—and some of which I just don't appreciate). Don't want to.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I've got a cat doing laps around me on my chair (arm-back-arm-lap... repeat) while a neighbor plays a bassoon. What quirky movie did I land in today?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm well into my work day and would still prefer not to be here. For no good reason! Just, don't wanna.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Jesse, we are one in this. I don't not even want a day at home in bed, I want a day away from everything and then I want like 3 days home with other people helping me with my house and projects that need doing.

My job is not part of this plan at alll.

Meanwhile I am actually buried in work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm two and a half weeks from VACATION, which seems like a really long time.

Also I'm about to have the regular meeting with the person who thinks I'm incompetent, so that's fun.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Connie, I love the British Antiques Roadshow. They added a glass expert who is a hoot. One time, a woman brought in a modern glass cake plate - he said it was handmade and he KNEW it was handmade because it said so on the label. They showed the top of the cake plate and it was for the winner of the Great British Bake-Off - it was Nancy! my fandoms collide!

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

Sorry, Jesse. And Dana

I want a day away from everything and then I want like 3 days home with other people helping me with my house and projects that need doing.

Oh that sounds SO GOOD

my fandoms collide!

The show Flog It! films their episodes at great houses and grand civic buildings. For one episode, they were at a big municipal hall at the same time as Martha, who was the youngest contestant in Season 5, was having a demonstration of some sort. The antiques host was very excited.

The National Trust is a terrific boon for the location needs of British reality TV.
