Today is the final, final, final day to bid at graduate_maria. Bidding closes at 11:59pm. These are the items that need more love, but several other auctions remain open as well.

Dragon*Con schedule: I has it.

Lease renewal came. All is essentially well, but there's one stupid thing I have to call them about. It's only going up by like $30, which means we're still below where we were when they dropped the rent last year.

Ice-skating fail. Johnny Weir is the subject. And this time Lysacek is the asshole.

eredien rebuts, quite amusingly, appalling opinion piece in The CSM on Prop 8. Basically the opinion piece asserts that women lack value and safety without a marriage institution whose sole purpose is to legitimize their existence, provide them with freedom and protect them from rape. Yeah, I'm confused too.

Department of passive aggression, item #1: I'm so fucking sorry my celiac disease doesn't occur as frequently as hoarding in the population and you're sick of hearing about issues related to gluten. I'm such an inconvenience, I know!

Department of passive aggression, item #2: OMG, do you hear yourself?

Hey, my warranty on my MacBook Pro expires in about 10 days. Should I get AppleCare?

Also, one-day single-stick workshop through my old salle with a master I like: should I or is it just all messy, even if only in my head?

Last night on Buffy and Angel:

Over on Angel: Willow and Fred have got it going on! And Wesley's all "hrmmm, Willow's hot, but how dare she flirt with Fred? Maybe we could have a threesome" and Willow's all "Hey, Wesley, keeping girl in the closet? HOT! but I'm totally dating someone even if I'm totally going to flirt with Fred EVEN MORE." Angel, thankfully, has his soul back, and Connor is still an idiot. Where'd Cordy get her evil dress from? Because that shit? Is absurd.

OH my fucking god Nathan Fillion. At first I was like "I'm not buying him as a preacher" and then I was all "I am totally buying him as an evil preacher" and then I kept laughing because all I could think of was a story from Dragon*Con involving a lot of booze and various celebrities being post-verbal because of it. OH MY GOD, NATHAN FILLION, WHAT THE FUCK?

Yeahhh, I'd be lying if I said that preacher!Fillion didn't scare the shit out of me. No one else seems to remember him all that much as a villain, but the most coherent thought I had while I was watching was something like, "Holy fffahh oh god what but how MAL REYNOLDS nooooo."

I remember him! He was the freakiest villain for me. And that was the first time I'd seen Fillion in something.

Same here. He was the cigarette-lighter-to-the-face that really tipped the series for me, from "let's make some nice metaphors for issues with monsters as standins" to "this kind of shit happens to women in cars."

Trying to come to terms with Mal Reynolds after that introduction? Took a while.
