Most plays aren't three hours. 90 minutes with no intermission seems to be the popular trend for new plays.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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

Skipping way too much because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is one of those lovely double Buffista birthdays, of both Beverly as well as Benno.
Happy birthday, Beverly! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Happy birthday, Benno, you big boy! With lots of wishes for your mom, your sister, and all your family!

Ugh. Woke up at 4 am and couldn't go back to sleep. Finally gave up trying about half an hour ago, with the plan of grading now and magically finding time to nap later.
Happy birthday to Beverly and Benno!

I woke up at 4 AM and went "Crap, I have to be up in half an hour to go to work." Stupid subconscious worried that the alarm won't go off.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthday, Beverly!!

I don't mind that. I saw a couple of Bway musicals on weeknights, and it was always a mistake, sleep-wise. On the other hand, I saw Speed-the-Plow on whatever night they start a half-hour earlier, and was home so early and happy. In short, I can't stay up late.

Happy Birthday Beverly and Benno!
I found out last night that Hot Innapropriately Young Guy now has a boyfriend, presumably having acquired him in the month since we last hooked up. Ah well, I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Felicitations on the anniversary of your natal days, Beverly and Benno!
