Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

Comment of the day (for a Charles P. Pierce column)?

Vance was vetted. He's up to date on his shots and the stool sample was clear of worms

This too shall pass.

Even the worms don't like him.

Maybe they should have tested his brain (for worms)

And, for a change of page, something nice

That is nice, Todd. Bringing a positive out of a bad situation.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Happy birthday, Debet!

RIP Greg Kihn - a friend of mine who is a sound engineer worked with him a few times & said we was great to work with.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Happy Birthday, Debet!

I think I'm having a migraine aura for the first time. Everything is sparkling. This is trippy and weird.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Thanks, everyone. DH got me an embroidered towel, as it's my 42nd. Ive been basically solo parenting since Sunday as he has COVID (still testing positive this morning). And Gumball started Kindergarten this week, so he's more than a bit of a mess. And I think the baby is teething again.

I continue to test negative, and, as I told DH, as long as we don't end up in the ER, it's unlikely to be my worst birthday.
