Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Seriously. If you're ever in real trouble, you want her on your side.

Seems to be something of a family trait.

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

a! We have a bottlebrush tree in our backyard. Now it will remind me of you, billytea.

I can live with that. California's a pretty good habitat for Australian flora. (Philly was tragically bereft of eucalypts.)

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

Wow, I just got sucked down the Etsy hole. Favourited a lot of stuff. I think I want to get my sister and I matching jewelry. If it's made in Cali, all the better. But we have to match.

This is a much better idea than the McNulty/Stringer porn she asked for. Or the computer.

I probably should have bought the pies today. Ah, well.

Right, sleep.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My pie is out and smells great. I think I need to sample it before t-day.

Now I'm feeling all ambitious and want to get on the turkey stock.

Just like Grey's? OK, can do. (Er, when I finish watching the current ep). Though I must say, the guy who plays Lemond Bishop is a FINE, FINE looking man.

Ooh, and according to his IMDB bio his brother is a Secret Service agent. hot.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yesterday a friend of mine invited me to Thanksgiving dinner. She claims to not need anything, so I'll be bringing flowers. It's a noon-ish dinner, so would wine be out of place? I was raised by a teatotaller, so I have to learn about my liquor etiquette in the street, from strangers online, from buffistas.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bringing a bottle of wine to the home of a wine-drinker is never a bad plan -- they can save it for later if they don't want to serve it immediately, for whatever reason.
