We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I love Nextbus, Jesse: I use it obsessively.

Matt, I'm aghast: someone cast Ben Frelling Browder AS A HENCHMAN? What a waste.

t sigh

My sister got tickets to the 49ers game tomorrow, so apparently I'll be making my parents Sunday dinner. Hmm.

In other news, I can breathe again: spending all day in bed, reading fantasy novels, seems to have helped. Now let's just see if I can get through the day without needing to buy a new box of tissues.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love Nextbus, Jesse: I use it obsessively.

Yeah, it's great. Except for at the beginning of the route.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

My last eye injury was makeup related. I am seriously not girl enough to be able to handle it.

However, I also have string whip on my arm again, so yay gender ambiguous injuries?

I need more toilet paper. But although it's going to snow tonight probably, it's only one day, so I should be able to survive the not-apocalyptic levels of weather with my existing stores.

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

I may experiment with a new pillow. My head and neck hurt a lot worse in the morning. But, then again, it's also when I'm lowest on painkillers, so I don't know which to try first, shifting my pill schedule, new pillow, or what. Although, the night where I couldn't find my pillow and slept with something else, didn't make it worse or better. I dunno....

Anyone ever eaten Galler chocolates? I just had them recommended to me, and I'm thinking of indulging my palate in a way that doesn't involve robbing my co-workers at Christmas (they were surprisingly okay with it--I kept the consultants and my team fed in decent chocolates for three days. Hmm. I mentioned chocolate on my self-eval. I hope they don't think that's weird).

I bought coffee for everyone in my department, but I bought rum for my boss, because he said he was going on a diet, which means no more rum and soda--because no more soda. So the rum has to be sipping quality. Which is obviously a challenge to me, as a native of a rum-proud country. I bought him a bottle of the 12 year old stuff, and when I told him (over the phone) that I had gotten him a gift, he went directly to rum. Thank god I didn't stop at the coffee for him.

would that be the kind of thing to call a doctor about getting some infection-preventing eye drops, or am I being alarmist?

Are eyes prone to infection? Obviously, they're going to be one of the nastier places to get inflamed, but are they higher risk?

OMG, John Noble knocked it out of the park last night. Jesus.

Also, we got an extended scene with Alterna-Astrid who did a wonderful job as a high-functioning autistic.

They just extended the tornado watch until 8 p.m. I knew I should have gone to the library yesterday.

I love this Doctor Who shirt. Don't buy it, because I am, and if we show up to the same party wearing it, there will be a catfight, and I will cut you.

You were warned.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I had a show last night and downloading Fringe from iTunes is taking forever. At least it's not an 8 day wait if you're willing to pay 3 bucks.

Uphill in the snow both ways to school? Well then shut the fuck up. Every day. Twice.

Man, I am irrationally pissed off whenever the username itamoon is gone somewhere. Seriously? Who's using that? Taking ita was bad enough. This is just...unconscionable.
