Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Damn, I am so glad we were talking about Sherlock here. I hadn't set tonight up to record. I should only have missed part of the intro, none of the show. Well, and the two years of my life that got scared off.

edit: DAMN! Missed just the barest bit. But I want to have this to pet and love and ... hi, Sherlock. ::goes to happy place::

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I think The Great Game has some of my favorite bits.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Random associations with the Natter conversation: I have had cake this weekend, which we made for the nephews. I have also been watching bees, as I put on David Attenborough's Life in the Undergrowth for our guests. (They're currently on the Silk Spinners. Lacewings have been laying eggs on stalks.) I have neither shepherd's pie nor Anzac biscuits, though I did have a meat pie for lunch yesterday. Today I has a toasted tuna sandwich, with cheddar cheese.

The lastest piece of wisdom: it's easy to repair holes when you have an almost unlimited supply of silk in your legs.

Plus the resemblance to Giovanni Ribisi was unnerving

There is some of this, so I can see where it'd get you, but OMG, no, I still adore Moriarty on first intro. Totally.

This is what I've learned from the neat spider that lives near my car. Someone keeps taking the web down but it goes right back up. It's fascinating. (Note: Outside spiders get to live. Inside spiders only get to live up high, far away from me and the cats and only until I am bitten and then it's death.)

billytea, have you seen First Life with David Attenborough? It's actually more my thing than yours. It's evolution from the very, very beginning and not what's amazingly cool now but it does use the present enough that I think you'd be interested and I highly rec it.

I have not, but I'm very much looking forward to it. I'm interested in evolution; extinct life is just as fascinating as modern animals.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Man, my fictional prefs say some really bad things about me.

Ahahahaha. Right there with you.

It's really intriguing. Fossilized life forms so old that it's unsure if they are animal or plant. Or if there was even a distinction at the time.

I am only sorry I failed to record it in HD. I am hoping for a reair at some point. Or I'll buy it.

Attenborough has had a really cool life.

Well, yeah.

Because we share links.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

"Amy's" brand makes a frozen Macaroni And Cheeze (yes, a Z) that is not only vegan, but close enough to a real Kraft taste that it's added a comfort food I missed so very much back into my life.

I love that stuff. Tastes more like Stouffer's than like Kraft to me, though. I was ridiculously happy when I found the one store around here that carries it. (Wegman's! Wegman's is wonderful.) And Wegman's also carries the packages of Daiya, the cheese they use, so I use that for quesadillas.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Aims, I may have some old Barbie clothes, and I KNOW we have some old blow-up Barbie sized furniture to play house with. No dolls though, let me know if you want pics or what.

Awesome!! Thank you SO much!!! Shoot me an email about how much you want for them and how much shipping is when you get a chance. I know you're sooper busy.
