(Fuck you, Deshaun Watson.)

So much so.

Our Christmas Eve plans fell through so it’s happily a snuggle on the couch watching football day. And since it’s Christmas Eve and will be an early night, I’ve even opened the wine. Naps might follow rather inevitably.

We’re going to watch the Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas special and the S1 finale of Stranger Things after ltc goes to bed. Right now we’re all snuggled on the couch watching Holiday Baking Championship.

Timelies all!

We ordered from a local pizza place for dinner.(Limited number of places open.) Picked it up, brought it home only to discover they forgot my spinach lasagne. They remembered the side salad and the garlic knots, and the stuff for Gary and Mr. S, but not my lasagne. Called them back and had them take it off my bill.(They screwed up that too, and had to get my card number again.)

As we have done in the past, when reminiscing, I think my delurking was on TT 5x5

I delurked in TT Buffy 2. And the first thing I said was a spoiler and the first response to me was Dana saying, "My eyes! My eyes!"

So that was a good start.

At the time I was in a pack of Undifferentiated Davids which is why I became Hecubus and Knut became Difficult.

As for many of the best things in my life, I blame Eli. Heavens, that was a long time ago.

Well, David, you made up for the spoiler reveal by totally lying to me when I was accidentally spoiled for Tara’s death by IMDB. You almost saved hat one for me (I just really don’ like Seeing Red anyway, but at least I thought Tara might live).

I was thinking about how I am normally the type of person who does not care about spoilers- in fact, I often read the end of the book first, just to make sure. (I had to skip a WHOLE BUNCH of Deathly Hallows because I NEEDED to find out what happened to Neville and if he was OK). I think I just enjoyed talking theories with everyone here so much, I didn’t want to be influenced.

I also watched a podcast on The Body today (it was on YouTube, so I am not sure what makes it a podcast and not a reaction video), and I was reliving again how deeply dumb I was to not have seen Buffy as a Christ figure dying and being reborn at the end of season five.

To be fair, there was no Robot Jesus filling in for him while he was in the tomb.

AS FAR AS WE KNOW

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it, and Happy Holidays to those who don't!

What Matt just said. Also, I love us, every one.

I joined the "Is Anybody Watching Buffy the Vampire Series" thread by Agnes Bertiz on TT--I thought it was the motherthread. Dana was there, and I assumed David was there. Holli joined not long after me. Ed was already there. Long, long time ago.

Merry Christmas/happy long weekend! In spite of the weather on the 23rd I made it to my sister’s. Albeit early on the 24th. I’ve been able to spend time with my nephew, his wife, and their 1.5 year old son. At last night’s Christmas Eve party someone brought a two month old golden retriever puppy and now I desperately want one. Luckily for my cats, I live in a no dogs apartment complex.

I discovered the buffista random quote generator and sought out the people who made the funny. It was in BTVS’s last season, I think.
