Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Market soon. Once I finish spilling coffee down my face.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Soon I shall shower and dress, then start my errands.(bring car to Jiffy Lube, pick up subscriptions at comic book store, and if there's time, get next batch of on-hold books from library)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Party at ita's place!

Seriously glad you got the meds. I am happy to see the medical establishment doing right by you.

For some reason, my perfectly capable corporate attorney sister cannot purchase concert tickets online for herself and has asked me to do it for her. I get that I am the one that has three laptops open and a smart phone and a tablet at my fingertips and she's juggling an infant but come on!

Consider it a retainer for future legal advice, Cash?

Absolutely. She's proven her weight in gold. Plus, she was worried she wouldn't be able to get through online.

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

Emmett's taking the SATs right now, and I'm tucked away in a corner of Cafe Trieste in Berkeley putting away a quiche.

We got to Berkeley High (the test site) early so I got to see the gaggles of teens arriving all gangly and zitty and brace-faced and cute. For as much as teens are characterized as angsty and emo, they were all smiley and social and chattering.

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

I figure I can't have been the only person who had fun in high school.

When I was in Pasadena for training a couple weeks ago, the bar was being administered (what's the right verb?) on the second day, and I got to see the crowds of potential future lawyers of California, and....Suits is set in New York. I'm assuming that explains everything, because it's clearly true. (Seriously, how long can you pretend to have gone to a school you didn't go to? I enjoy the show, but the founding premise gets weaker and weaker...)

Go Emmett!

I made my bed, which may not sound like much but meant putting away stuff, dislodging cats and all that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Re: the where do people get new music discussion - I am mildly embarrassed to report that I download many of the free tracks Starbucks gives away through their app.

I am awake (and have been for over an hour) watching the Georgetown game. Fun! But there's no food in the house, so I'm starting to get hungry. And it's a gorgeous day out, so I should really be prepared to go outside and enjoy that, once the game is over.
