Suela, both of those pieces of news are excellent!
But, Steph, if they were being stupid in a way you were forced to notice, wouldn't corrections be satisfying? "Nope!" *smash* *tosses the pieces into a box*

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
bah! I'm going to advise my boss to find someone who's better at Word than I am ... or track down and strangle ask whoever did this to fix it.

And, if anyone's interested, they're showing new episodes of Riverdale. The kids graduated and, last night, seven (!) years afterwards got together.

Hi Allyson!
Congrats Consuela!
There are so many friends I've made and experiences I've had because of Buffy, and I think it's worth separating that out if you can.
shrift is wise. I probably owe half the friends I have today to Buffy fandom, and I'm not going to feel guilty about that just because Joss turned out to be an abusive piece of crap. Or even enjoying his work—a lot of other writers, directors, actors, and crew members other than him pooled their own impressive talents together to make his shows and movies so good.

Congratulations, Consuela!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats, Consuela!
Bleah. Snowplow came through our neighborhood at 5:45 am, and I couldn't go back to sleep after that.(Wasn't even that much snow on the ground.)

Punishingly Intricate
Congrats, Consuela!!! That's very impressive!
I *love* fixing problems like that in Word. Word Nerd! I wish you could just send me your doc to fix, Todd, but I only have Office on my work computer and I goes doing someone else's work on it would br frowned on
I've been coming to terms with JW's terribleness for years, and the pain of that is fresh now that we're getting more details from more people who worked on sets. Some of his work I will reclaim in ways that don't benefit him financially, and some of his work he can fucking keep because there's nothing there that I want to bring with me.
This is where I am.

Oh man, that would be THE BEST.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Re: the whole Joss thing, I'm reminded of Liz Lemon's discovery on 30 Rock that she was not the bullied nerd in HS as she had imagined but the one with the cutting and cruel tongue who hurt other people.
I have no doubt he was lacerating on set and shitty.

Puppy got his first snow today! He loved it and wanted to dash about but was on leash (poor baby)
