You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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

Flying home! Off to the airport. See you on the flip side.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, well, I married a bass player and it worked out pretty well for me.
 
Of course I also am a bass player, so I don`t know what you can infer sexually for me. I also did not ever get tail because of playing bass in a band, but my context might be ever so slightly different than yours. The SO did get hit on even in that context, so maybe you`re right.
 
Anyway, yes, bassist absolutely holds the band together, good or bad.
 
I don`t know what to do with myself this morning. SO`s alarm went off despite no actual classes today. He`s still asleep, but of course I am up. It is bitter cold. -13. I stoked the fire and put on the kettle. I need to take it outside to thaw the birdbath, but it is so cold I don`t know if it`s worth it.
 
Usually by the time I emerge into the New Year, the Rose parade is on.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Flying home! Off to the airport. See you on the flip side.

YAY home. I hope this flight goes more smoothly.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ok, I can futz around for half an hour. Good morning! Is Noah excited about the Winter Classic? He can watch it in his Pens jersey. (Of which D. requests a photo, btw, he was very pleased to hear about it.) K. had to correct me over on Facebook on who was playing! Oops. I blame midnight. And the booze. But I can`t blame the booze on Facebook, `cause disapproving donors! Hee.

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

Timelies all!

Happy New Year!

We went to First Night Alexandria, since the weather wasn't too cold.(Also I found a down coat of mine that had been hiding in the closet for who knows how many years.) Saw some good performers, had hot chocolate and a cupcake on King Street and walked a lot. Fun!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Happy New Year, 'ffistas!

Still pregnant. But instead of going into labor last night, I had a wonderful evening over at a neighbor's apartment with a multi-course meal ending in FOUR different kinds of chocolate dessert and a half a game of Phase 10, so 2010 didn't end on an entirely down note after all.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy New Year everybody!!

We are watching the parade and my coffee is brewing, so the morning is off to a good start. My kids are asking me why we aren't watching it live. My answer of "it's warmer here and the view is better" aren't cutting it.
