Tara: That was funny if you've studied Taglarin mystic rites and... are a total dork... Riley: Then how come Xander didn't laugh?

Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness  

[NAFDA] We used to get Buffy the day before everyone else, now we get Angel a week after everyone else. And Firefly every Monday!

And, seriously, Wes cutting Connor? Smearing his bloody hand on his chest? Cupping his cheek with his bloody hand?

Breaking his neck and putting us out of our misery? Oh, that was just in the version in my head. I wish Jasmine would send him the secret message "get your hair cut".

Hmmmm... I would appear that I hate Connor in a way that rivals your hatred of Willow.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Aiee! Holy shit! I just quit my job (over email) and I'm kind of freaking. Wow.

I'm not sure how this is going to work out (I emailed the owner of the contracting company and said that I changed my mind about renewing the contract which I agreed to renew back in February). I think that the new contract hasn't actually started yet, so that might be when I stop.

Oh, by the way, I'm leaving because it makes me miserable and I do have savings, so I figure why not? That way every member of my immediate family will be unemployed except for Helen, who's out of school.

Why, you may ask, is Helen out of school? Because she had jaw surgery this morning. It went really well, and she's doing fine. Mostly she sleeps, but she can talk, and the swelling isn't that bad. It's all in her lips, too - she looks like she got collagen injections. Whitefonted TMI: She had to stay in recovery for three hours because she was throwing up the blood she swallowed during surgery, but she stopped at 3pm. All gone.

Well, I'll have to see if I can make it in to work tomorrow (the fits of crying this morning convinced me that I shouldn't go today.)

Thanks for all the fish.

Oh, goodness, Ouise. But you'll be much happier - once the hysterical crying stops.

And HRM's vomiting is really quite common for that kind of surgery. Still, poor thing. She'll feel much better while all of the anaesthetic is out of her system.

Indeed! In fact, I think that just doing something about it has made me feel better.

The people at the hospital gave that impression. Once it was out, she really didn't seem distressed at all. Just really woozy. She even managed a bathroom trip mostly on her own.

I really enjoyed last night's Angel, especially the people-eating parts. Brrr.

CONNOR: What happened to those people?
JASMINE: I ate them.
CONNOR: Cool!

wow Ouise, that's very very brave of you! I hate my job and often think about going to beauty school to become a makeup artist because I think that would be ever so much fun, but I am a chicken. Here's jobma vibes for you finding something you really like, but not too quickly. =)

Hugs for Helen!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Why do I always read whitefonted TMI stuff? Why?

Thanks for all the fish.

Glutton for information?

Megan, you'd run the risk of being a beauty school dropout and do you really want Frankie Avalon singing to you?

Thanks, Megan. I'm still giggling about making Jon read the TMI. hee.

Well, if I end up being the First Lady (or the Canadian equivalent) then it might not be so bad.

DAMN LEAFS! They are BUMS! UGH!

Thanks for all the fish.

The Leafs lost? Oh my god! That's one of the seven signs of the apocalypse! No, wait - that's business as usual. Carry on.
