Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

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

This, right? [link]

Damn.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

How awful. He was so talented.

That's sad news.

Really, if you can taste it (it's sweet! Don't ask how I know!) you need a respirator.

I have a respirator, but it is just everywhere. And yes, it does taste sweet. Cats were shut/hiding in a bedroom behind a closed door (which is kind of a miracle in itself.) My containment bubble around the stairs worked pretty well. Only had to clean up in that area- dust didn't get very far outside of it. But I do need more plastic sheeting.

But everything is mopped and dusted and vacuumed now. I figure it takes about 1.5 hours just to prep and then breakdown and cleanup every go. Uhg.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm weirdly upset about his death.

Phil was a genuinely nice guy, too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm weirdly upset about his death.

I was that way about Heath Ledger.

Addiction is so fucking brutal.

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

Oh, no. That's awful.

I think I've gotten over thinking it's weird that these deaths of people I don't actually know upset me. This is a bad one.

hwæt

X-post from movies: [link]

He had undergone treatment for drug addiction in the past, and spoke in interviews about “falling off the wagon” last year after remaining clean for 23 years.

23 years.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh that's awful.

I actually did know him. He directed a play (largely about addiction) that I worked on. [link]

When we met I was asking him to please not stand directly under the very heavy lighting instruments the electricians were trying to lag bolt into the scenic beams and he asked me to call him Phil and started chatting about how naturally trusting he is.
