Ack, it's been ages since I've posted, I'm totally lame. But I just wanted to announce that it's More Joy Day, and I've bought a beehive for someone in a poor country via Heifer International. Happy happy joy joy!

Oh man you guys, you should be watching Heroes if you're not. I predict right now that Adam/Peter will make fandom explode with glee. It is certainly making me very happy right now. They are so pretty!
