Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

It's the nighttime bits that annoy.

If they sound like they're training Godzilla to drive race cars again tonight, I am going to go downstairs and be the Scary Goth Chick. I'll be polite, but I will ask them if they know about how sound carries.

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

Nifty!

Do we know what time either the game starts or the televised festivities start? I ought to call my parents today but I suspect interrupting football would be rude.

Kickoff is supposed to be at 6:30 EST, but I'm pretty sure the festivities started broadcasting sometime this past week.

Later this evening it will be then. Which will now entail me admitting to them that I'm entirely disinterested in the game. I'm going to Powell's instead. Commercials will be online if there is anything spectacular.

Earlier there was a moment of panic at my house when we scrolled through the TiVo listings to find Animal Planet...and it didn't come in!! But then we found another channel of Animal planet that did come in. Whew! Crisis averted!

My sister called this afternoon to tell me that my dad's boss (and owner of the company dad works for) died suddenly last night. Now, I hated the man because he was a raging asshole, so I'm not upset, just shocked. I'm more worried about how my dad's taking it since he's known his boss for 40 years (not so good, I think), and if he'll have a job once his boss's equally horrible children take over the company.

My upstairs neighbors in one apartment were three elderly people. One of them -- perhaps they took shifts -- was rocking a rocker during the wee hours almost every night. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump.

Man, now that I think about it, if I swapped some genders around I could totally have the plot of a Harlequin romance with all this drama.

(I'm a terrible person.)
