For folks not on FB, my husband got me a set of very nice new kitchen knives for my birthday, custom engraved with the names Ilya Rozaknife and Shane Hollanblade. I love them so much.
Lindsey: Why--why did you... Lorne: One last job. You're not part of the solution, Lindsey. You never will be. Lindsey: You kill me? A flunky?! I'm not just...Angel...kills me. You...Angel... Lorne: Good night, folks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

True to form, Ilya is too tall to fit in our current knifeblock.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone.

Apparently flights are being diverted to Canada again. At least this time they can go to places like Montreal and Toronto, rather than all having to go to Gander.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

I just had to listen to a retelling of the plot of Come From Away, with singing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I had a good day with Emmett.
Picked him up at noon and we headed to Clement Street, which is a heavily Asian neighborhood to eat at Ah Ma's Kitchen: [link]
Famous for their Kiln Chicken which was just as delicious as advertised.
Walked down Clement and picked up a slice of cake from Schubert's Bakery (source of all of Matilda's bday cakes growing up), and hitting the Pasta Supply Store where Emmett got a duck ragu and a pork sugo one.
Then we shot downtown, used a parking lot and waltzed into Macy's to buy him a new mattress for his new place (his belated bday present). Same place JZ and I got our new mattress.
There was only one salesperson on the floor so by the time he'd gotten to us, Emmett had sampled seven beds, narrowed it down to his top three, and made his choice. Which happened to be on a very big Black Friday discount.
Bought the mattress, got a free box spring, free delivery and were out of the parking garage in no time.
A very fun and productive three hours.
