Willow ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.
OK, I have made appointments for a flu shot and to get my car's oil changed. Way less than I hoped to accomplish today, but not nothing.
Gold Star for Onerous Task doing, minus-t!
I'm sorry you're getting back surgery, Tep, but I do remember how much relief the first one gave you.
I'm thinking you and Tim probably deserve a co-Billboard at this point. Something something Spinal Tapped.
Aw, Karl, that joke's both cute and kind of a groaner at the same time. Took me a second, too. Reading it out loud helped.

This time it's weird, because I don't have OHMYGODPAINPAINPAINKILLMEPAIN. It's like an electric shock running down my arms, and then pins and needles in my hands. Which, to be clear, isn't a whole lot of fun, but it's for sure not the same kind of pain. (The surgery is necessary because if the wayward discs don't get off the nerves they're pressing on, there will be permanent nerve damage and I'll eventually lose grip strength in my hands and, I guess, general strength in my arms and hands. And I would like to avoid that. So, surgery.)

Our family crest (for just us two, the Northside Beckmeyers) is a picture of Skeletor with text superimposed over it that reads "I will be okay. Not because everything is fine, but because I am surprisingly difficult to destroy."
Plus I have a cool new hipster sweater with a fox wearing glasses on it, so I've got that going for me.
I totally share that particular Skeletor whenever I can...it's not everyone who has file folders documenting that, lucky me.
Lol, I just got on a plane and over the shoulder of the girl in front of me, I spied AO3. Almost asked her what she’s reading (she was scrolling through some various options, I recognized the symbols but couldn’t see what fandom she was in) but didn’t.
Ha!
It's probably gay hockey, though.
I mean to be fair all I have been reading for 8 months is gay hockey on AO3 so…
My mother read the Valachi Papers when she was pregnant with me.
I had to spend a lot of time off my feet my first pregnancy and much of the time was spent with multiple collections of Calvin and Hobbes. It surely had an impact.
Jess you go first, explain what your formative media is and why is it Buffy
Nice.
Today is my son Bobby's 32nd birthday. The 5th with no contact. It doesn't get any easier.

Last week Aeryn walked past me on the opposite side of the living room and said, "You read on DARK MODE?!?!?!!" (And...yeah, it was Hollanov.)
I was at a flea market a little ways upstate this morning and had to rescue an Ender (from Ender's Game, not Minecraft) Funko from one table because the idea of turning this traumatized 8 year old's story into a cute little desk toy just made me so sad for him. I also got a soup bowl that has handles and the word SOUP in all caps for a dollar, so all told it was a pretty good haul.
I'm sorry, Laura.
