I've been doing a bit of thinking lately, about my life and what I've done with it and what I can do with it. For so many years my life was about vengeance. Finding the monster who killed my mother and making him pay was all I could think about. Every move I made in life was directed toward achieving that goal. It took finding him for me to ( Read more... )

Buffy's dad is in town again. Every time I'm around this guy my respect for both Buffy and Dawn grows just a little bit more. As does my sympathy.

He stopped by here last night wanting to speak with Mr. Giles. Somehow, I don't think it was the residual fairy venom that was affecting Rupert's stomach last night. Apparently, Hank even managed to ( Read more... )

It seems that someone has an interesting sense of humor. One of Buffy's gifts last night contained some sort of tiny flying creatures that bite. It would appear that these creatures possessed some sort of venom as well, as all of those who were bitten are now very sick. I managed to squash a couple of the little buggers with a heavy box (You ( Read more... )

There's been a second museum robbery, another artifact with magickal properties was stolen, and the same "guy in a lizard suit" was involved.(Sometimes I just can't believe the extent of the average person's refusal to see what's right in front of them.) We still don't have any real leads on who is responsible for these robberies, although there ( Read more... )

It seems there was a robbery yesterday at the Cleveland American History Museum. The news reports claim that the robbery was committed by two men, one wearing a lizard costume, the other hid his face behind a large pair of goggles and a hat. Apparently, the employees and patrons of the museum were paralyzed with some sort of gas being admitted by ( Read more... )

The only thing I truly dislike about the holidays is the sudden jolt back into reality that always follows them. I realize that it's not that big of a deal for most people, a couple of extra days off of work to spend with their families and then it's right back into the swing of things. But in my line of work, it's a nightmare ( Read more... )

It was a surprisingly peaceful and pleasant holiday, for a change. Everyone seemed to like the gifts I bought, even Clem. I gave Faith her gift in private, as I wasn't sure how she'd react. She didn't say much. I'm hoping that means that she was pleased, since I've never known her to keep quiet when she's angry, but I'm honestly not sure ( Read more... )

I finally got all of my shopping done, thank God. I don't think I could go back into another store right now if my life depended on it. People just get crazy at this time of the year. Next year I think I'll do my Christmas shopping in October and save myself the hassle.

I've been working on getting more into the holiday spirit lately, hence my new icon. *grins* Makes me all kinds of cheerful. Sorry, man, but you really did ask for it.We did a drawing a few days ago to pick names for a secret santa thing. I guess that's a good idea. It would be difficult, not to mention downright expensive, to buy gifts for ( Read more... )

Man, don't do that to me!
