  • 01:10:49: Watched the first four episodes of "Mad Men." Um. What do people see in this show? And I wanted so much to like it.
  • 02:02:58: @Dark_Puck Many airplanes do; you just need a DC adapter for your computer. They aren't expensive.
  • 12:53:52: Fun petrochemical term: "fracking." Petition asserts, "A handful of fracking carpetbaggers shouldn't hold NY's environment hostage." Heh.
  • 12:55:54: RT @MoTancharoen: This is hilarious. @zdubdub sent it to me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=414TmP12WAU
  • 18:09:57: @fredhicks Ooh, I know this one! Marge Simpson?

  • 00:32:52: Wow. Today's Doctor Who was really, really awful. John Simm looked like he was having fun, though.
  • 00:33:49: @Esperacchius I've never done pear and gruyere. It was definitely pear and cream cheese.
  • 00:43:30: RT @TerriEdda: Love, Love, Love. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nh7D2g5v-Sg
    Weepy alert.
  • 01:31:47: @ksmccarthy24 *is prodded*

  • 23:19:59: @fredhicks I figured you two needed something relaxing to detox some of that New Parent stress. Hope Evie likes her gift, too. :D
  • 23:53:26: Went shopping with Mom and Sister! Got some new bras, a new watch, and an extravagance of earrings! Gotta love post-Christmas sales.

  • 01:15:06: @SheckyX I think it was either Peach and Ginger or Pear and Cream Cheese.
  • 02:05:35: MERRY CHRISTMAS, CENTRAL TIME ZONE!
  • 02:36:54: It's amazing how a little ice paralyzes this city. Saw 7 crashed/abandoned cars on way to airport. DFW is a mess.
  • 03:44:25: Glee! Got a "Castle" fic for Yuletide! http://archiveofourown.org/works/34347 -- And it only took 10 minutes to load! Poor AO3 servers. :D
  • 12:41:35: @ShannonKButcher Gadzooks! May visions of sugarplums and chlofiends disguised as Christmas trees dance in his head. Merry Christmas!
  • 12:42:35: Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it! Happy December 25th to those who don't! May your day be filled with joy.
  • 17:37:12: @ksmccarthy24 Thanks for making MY HEART STOP. Read "Sir Pterry's Death" as, well,"Sir Pterry's death." Thought I'd missed something tragic.
  • 21:51:16: http://twitpic.com/v8z01 - Box lid from the pecan pie my uncle brought:
  • 22:46:06: @Esperacchius Here I thought the mini-blizzard was my fault! The weather plummeted as soon as I arrived.
  • 22:53:14: @ShannonKButcher Sounds like a lovely Christmas, even though the timing was a bit off-kilter! May your holiday cheer live long and prosper.
  • 23:08:27: Amazon believes my purchase of Brian K. Vaughan's "Runaways" means I'd be interested in a book on Runaway and Homeless Youth. Aaaaawkward.
  • 23:14:58: @ShannonKButcher Hope he enjoys! The rules are joyously convoluted, and the cards were clearly designed by a sadistic geek. My kind of game!
  • 23:16:42: @ShannonKButcher He's ready to take on the After-Christmas Sale rush at Wal-Mart!
  • 23:21:55: @ShannonKButcher The Middleman DVDs are his too, though I imagine you'd all enjoy them. A smart, hilarious love letter to cheesy sci-fi.
  • 23:37:14: Woohoo, time for the Doctor Who Christmas special!
  • 23:57:01: @longshotauthor Merry Christmas!

  • 19:46:50: Man, my Twitter page must be such a downer right now. I refuse to live in anger. Time to beta, eat pasta, and zoom off to @vampirecowboys!

  • 01:01:19: This just in: @Uilos is made of awesome. He is 100% Voltaire -approved!
  • 01:03:38: @Dark_Puck The Ronald McDonald Foundation filmed outside my apartment the other day. The whole street was blocked off.
  • 01:05:22: @fredhicks *melts at the cute*
  • 01:08:03: @ShannonKButcher Brave girl!
  • 01:08:39: Yesterday: like 60. Today: snow. What?
  • 11:35:18: @beachkid It makes sense in the context of that world, given its history. Differences in value systems make a world more realistic, IMO.
  • 11:38:31: @Dark_Puck I wouldn't be surprised if Amend was a fan, but I knew what the Noodle Incident was before it became a TV Trope.
  • 11:44:17: RT @whedonesque: Dollhouse Simplified. http://bit.ly/5OGaqM //What the heck was that? If that's how Fox sees DH, no wonder it was canceled.
  • 12:28:41: @paulandstorm *snickers* I wonder how many NYers and Bostonians were in it for the lolz? My guess is all of them. http://bit.ly/6azlEq

  • 12:59:47: *snerks* @KitaiClanAleran has been friended by @parkhavenstable. I love it when companies on Twitter Fail To Get It.
  • 13:16:08: @ShipLizard Struggling to think of one woman in the series I would consider "dumb." Maybe Beritte, who we're not supposed to like anyway.
  • 13:20:15: @ShipLizard Ah. Well, the series' heroes resent the "barren = lesser" stigma. It isn't depicted as something favorable.
  • 13:25:11: @ShipLizard Absolutely.
  • 15:55:35: Gah, I've been surfing TV Tropes for the past two hours! *crowbars self away from site*
  • 19:00:04: Found gifts for half my list and ate a French Onion Soup crepe. I love the Union Square holiday market!
  • 19:44:33: Finally watched the last two episodes of Season 3 of The Guild. Hilarious stuff! Can't wait for Season 4.
  • 21:37:02: I want to get a miniature Christmas tree for my apartment and top it with an angel that looks like the Statue of Liberty. Don't judge me.
