Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

C'dan Thanksgiving is cleverly placed to coincide with actual pumpkins being in supermarkets. t /bitter about shopping for pie ingredients for T'giving in MI

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

Huh! I never thought of that. That would be very annoying. No pumpkin pie for me this year, though. Accursed dairy-free diet. Hey, I wonder if you can make pumpkin pie with rice milk or soy milk. I'll have to look that up. Maybe there is hope of pie, after all.

Megan, how exciting about your friend. I hope she had an easy labour.

Actually she started labour on Sunday morning at 3:00am, and had the baby today at 12:30pm. Yikes! They didn't go to the hospital until 2am today so I guess her water broke and then nothing happened.

Anyway, they had a boy (and I named him!) 9lbs, 8oz! Big baby. We're going to see him tonight after we have the turkey. Gobble gobble.

Wow, that's a huge baby! Congratulations to her. And you got to name him? SO cool. The 34 hours thing less so. Ulp!

Enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner and the baby visit!

I was a bigger baby than that!

And no turkey for me! But I did have pumpkin pie!

A flark is like quicksand, but in a peat bog. There's a short trail in Fundy that goes right through a bog, and one year I almost fell in the flark. Not this year though. I had a lot of fun. Lots of hiking, giggling, and eating.

Hey Sue, welcome back! I'm glad you had fun and didn't fall into a flark.

I don't like hearing about all these big babies. In my family, a big baby was 8 lb (I was 7 lb).

Buffy was boring. Zachary Bryan was bad casting. Why does Spike always swoop in and "save the day"? WHY?

I was very eh about the whole show. Cassie was a good character, and I was hoping she'd survive to be a friend of Dawn. (Though the actor looked about 5 years older than MT.) But then ending seemed to be of the Monkey's Paw variety of twist endings.

I liked Cassie, which surprised me. I had seen the actress in an episode of Smallville, and she was really annoying. I guess it was actually the character that was annoying.

I was bothered by Spike saving the day, although I was highly amused by him punishing himself by hitting the guy.

Did anyone else think that "Josh", the kid who hit on Buffy by claiming to be gay, looked kind of like Joss?

I totally thought that too.
