Test. This is only a test.
Is LJ acting up for anyone else? Poor albion1919 just got half a dozen blank responses from me, for which I apologize profusely.
Private note to same: I am dumb, and clearly incapable of remembering more than one David at any given moment... -

So who's Wilson?
Last week's House was that most dangerous of all shows: boring as hell. I would have loved to have hated it, but I didn't. I was just simply underwhelmed. Since the opposite of love isn't hate but rather indifference, I was wondering whether I was just about done with this show. This week's episode threatened to repeat the pattern, but my boy ( Read more... ) -
BFA
I've been collecting Big Finish audio plays because eBay is my evil enabler and the internet makes it way too easy to buy things from England.

Coffee cures all the world's ills
The repair shop that had our coffee machine has gone out of business...while still holding on to our broken machine. *weeps* Out of options, we bought a new Krups but I feel vaguely unfaithful for not patiently waiting for my old, beloved machine. *sips hot, fresh coffee* And I'm over it ( Read more... ) -

Well, that was a fun night
Sandy went to a rather unusual birthday party last night. Parents were to drop the kids off in Chinatown for dinner and then the entire party was going to go to a hotel for a sleepover. (The parents rented a suite for the night and put the girls in sleeping bags, but I still think that's a lot of money for a thirteenth birthday. But I digress ( Read more... )
