Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'

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.

"You should never say bad things about the dead, only good… Joan Crawford is dead. Good.” —Bette Davis

Busy couple of days here, I got my 30 days notice yesterday that someone has bought my apartment and I need to be moved out by the end of December. So I kicked the housing search into high gear, asked my realtor about a couple of places on my backup list, and he arranged a showing of one of them. Turns out I like this house much more than I thought I would from the listing pictures, I can really see myself living there long-term rather than just as a temporary measure like I was considering for the last house I looked at: [link]

The seller being okay with a move-in before closing is an added bonus, though I hope that's not necessary. So I made an offer today, the seller counter-offered, and I'm accepting and signing the contract this afternoon. Looks like I'm going to be a homeowner!

Hooray!

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

How exciting, Matt!

"Please stop sneezing on my fried chicken," doesn't seem like a big ask.

Has anybody been watching Warrior Nun on Netflix? Sepinwall is asking for favorite shows from 2022 over the last year and it's getting a lot of love in the comments.

Looks a bit Buffy-ish.

Oh, wow, Matt! I hope everything keeps going smoothly! I like the look of it and how wonderful that it is better in person. How exciting!

I have seen some mention of Warrior Nun from someone, Tep, maybe> Possibly even here in the Streaming thread? Have not gotten around to checking it out myself but I had it in the back of my mind of something to try

I let my FitBit that I use as a watch run out of charge and thus did not realize the time this morning and did not actually get out of bed until after my first meeting of the day had started Whoops! Was only a few minutes late and it didn't seem like I missed much so I think it's okay, but I am embarrassed. So of course I had to tell someone.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Season 1 took a little while to really hook me, but I ended up loving it despite how ridiculous and cheesy it is. I know season 2 dropped a little bit ago but I haven't watched it yet, even though season 1 ended on a cliffhanger.

Seeing it as a quotation, I should have punctuated that sentence differently. Full colon, perhaps. Ah well. I am not a mistress of punctuation.

More like a side piece.

Punctuation's not real. Like the moon.

I am not sure how to take that, but I can't say it's wrong. {eta that was to Hec. I will just accept Tep's pronouncement in whole}

Well, hoo-fuckin'-ray, I finally know what my job is! More or less. But the uncertainty is now in the vein of "we'll have to see which of these things we want you to do are most valuable" rather than just giant shrugs of no idea. Such a relief! Although I will miss those times (and they have been frequent of late) when I would finish all the things I knew to do and just had total slack time to myself. I knew that couldn't last and milked it for all it was worth.
