You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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

Ooh, Jess, bon voyage (I assume that implicitly includes the requested good tour wishes)!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all.

Tomorrow evening we fly up to CT for the funeral.(My dad's family is buried there, so my mom joins them.) Fly back Monday night. Then we fly down to FL Wed night. The memorial service is Thursday morning. Gary flies back Friday afternoon so he can have Mr. S for the weekend. I'm staying until Sunday.

Have a terrific trip, Jessica!

I hope your travels go smoothly, Sheryl.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I love runny eggs. They are great on avocado toast.

today I took the dog for a 6-mile walk in the park (she got probably 8 miles), and then I just faffed about the house, but eventually I took the Tornado out and we did some training, and then I picked up some takeout and went to dinner at a friend's house, and drank far too much wine.

Now watching Trevor Noah and thinking about all the books I want to read.

At least I have Monday off -- but I will probably do some work.

That sounds really nice Suela! I am at a dance convention (thus wide awake at 3:30am with aching feet, about to try to sleep). Throws my whole sleep schedule off (and I don’t have Monday off) but so worth it.

I love runny eggs. They are great on avocado toast.

The damn bomb, in fact.

I like the yolk only to be runny. I do not enjoy gelatinous whites.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

This, I think. Now that I like eggs.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

I would always rather celebrate October Thanksgiving than that meathead Christopher Columbus, so I'll say to all of our Canadian and Canadian-adjacent Buffistas: Happy Thanksgiving. May your harvests (both literal and metaphorical) be fruitful, and may you enjoy this year's colourful leaf-jumping and that first scent of winter-to-come on the air.
