Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

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

Your standard wish, then

But good luck with the re-org meanwhile!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

What I really want is some sort of unknown distant relative to leave me a fortune in their will. And a manor house. And to make me a vampire, while I'm wishing for unattainable things.

Same. Except the vampire part. Probably.

Me three, Plei. No the vampirism, yes to the rest.

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

No vampirism here either, thanks. But I've always said no to biofamily search. They made those choices and I respect them. The only way I'd agree is to meeting the family lawyer with previously unknown great-uncle Ralph's will in which I am the main benefactor.

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

Same. Except the vampire part. Probably.

It's got some opportunities but I'd also likely end up stress eating. Which only sucks for them. And me if I still have a conscience.

I spend too much time static and brooding as a human, becoming a vampire does not seem like a smart move for me.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'll take vampirism, but only if I get to be Darla in late S2.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Headed home after spending all week back at my office for a very successful event that I helped organize. When I checked in yesterday, American offered me a first-class upgrade for not too much money, and I took it. Looking forward to relaxing for 3.5 hours separated from all the economy class losers.

Enjoy the elite air and whatnot, Dana!

I am working from my parents' house today (it's my mom's birthday) and I managed to not bring with me the charging cable for my laptop or the dongle for my wireless mouse (I did bring the wireless mouse, I guess as a fidget toy?) so might be just a half day for me, we'll see how the battery does

Our wings are not tired.

Happy birthday to your mom, -t! It is also my step-dad's 89th birthday, and my SIL's (brother's widow) 70th. I was going to go over and bring her fancy pastries from the Italian market but my body had other plans. (I had packed my suitcase to go there for a few days before giving up and pulling out my slippers.)

Most unhappy belly last night and today. I'm working on a cup of coffee and toast and we'll see how it goes.
