Barb, just write it! (Easy for me to say.) But publishing is fickle enough anyway; you should write what you damn well please, and maybe the market will come round to you.
Curling joke I didn`t make because Hank Hill wouldn`t approve: "Go hard!" "That`s what..."
Your work nemesis would drive me mad with that because I would be constantly forced to construct increasingly elaborate scenarios in my brain to make the initial statements work as sexual innuendo. Hee.
I can beat up demons until the cows come home, and then I can beat up the cows.

Wow, one of the Canadian hockey players (Shea Weber) hit a slapshot so hard it tore through the net in goal. They had to review it in slow motion. 103mph.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
ita, you are EVIL. I say this having watched Kidnapped. (Okay, I am watching the last parts of the last ep right now and HOLD ME!) eta: ((I want more. Now. NOW!)) (((No, I have no idea how. Just it can't be over. I am sure of this.))

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I almost did the splits on my way to work today. I hate it when there's a thin layer of snow on everything and you can't tell if there's ice underneath or not....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I always feel dumb when I mince across something that might be ice, but isn't. But better that than wiping out.
I am also curious about who says "the splits" vs. "a split."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I say "the splits". And now I don't know why.

Barb, that's what writing pseudonyms are for, and why writers use them. Or, get a coauthor and bill them first.
I have a toothache and must depart immediate for a dentist visit. At least I'm being proactive and not waiting until I'm crying in pain, right?

Isn't "Tara" great? Love it. That is going to be my next script, if I ever write the current one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No, I have no idea how. Just it can't be over. I am sure of this.
Wasn't it great? I can't believe I came so late to it. I blame everyone here for letting me down.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, ugh, Theo, I'm sorry!
WRITE IT, Barb.
We totally missed the skating last night; it was wet and rainy and exactly the right kind of evening for rewatching Totoro. I'm mildly irked that I'll have to troll YouTube to catch up with everything, but on the other hand at the end of the movie Matilda insisted that I stand up and dance around the living room to the end credits song with her, and I love her dancing even more than I love ice skating.
More amazing Shorpy pictures. I'm starting to warm to the idea of an NYC F2F, especially if Gud or MM can get cracking on a time machine and get us all back to the turn of the last century.
