Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Our wings are not tired.

Thanks for the update, and yay for that phase being done! Will continue to send bunches of ~ma that it did the trick.

We always make enough food and folks bring enough food that everyone goes home with food, and we also have leftovers for a few days.

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

I love the idea of "food swap at Drew and Kristin's!" Nobody goes home with the food they brung.

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

Timelies all!

I am so tired of "Big City Greens". (Mr. S has been watching it a lot the last few days)

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

Wishing you all the "Honey, we shrunk the tumor!" -ma, Epic! I'm so glad you've completed your course of therapies. It's been a long haul.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

All the tumor shrinkage ~ma, Epic. And speedy recovery. That tumor needs to be in a glass jar somewhere or an incinerator. Outta you.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Lots of tumor-shrinky~ma for you, Epic!!!

Relevant to the earlier conversation, my mom texted me earlier to say "Don't forget to bring freeloader Tupperware." (As if I *want* leftover Tofurkey.) (Like, Tofurkey is fine, and I do know that when I go to my mom and stepdad's house for Thanksgiving, Tofurkey is on the menu, and I'll eat it. But it makes Tim very happy, and I do love that.) (But when I eat my leftovers at home, it will be with real bird.) (Just chicken. I'm not buying a turkey for leftovers.)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Kate, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Love to you and your family. How are the girls handling it?

We keep cheap plastic containers for whenever we have guests over because they’re required to take food home. I always make way too much food. Speaking of which our Thanksgiving plans fell through so now we’re staying home and I’m cooking enough food for at least a dozen people for just the three of us.

My great-uncle is still in the hospital and is headed to rehab after that. I spoke to my great-aunt the other day, and she’s not holding out much hope that he’ll be able to return home. I feel terrible for her. They’ve been together for something like 70 years.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

May your tumor be withered away to an easily handled size, Epic!

I just found out that my cousin who hosts the family Christmas/Hanukkah/Winter Solstice get-together is making it an ugly sweater party. I don't wear sweaters, so unless I can fit into the referee's sweater I bought for Halloween in the 90s I'm going to have to decline participation while attending.
