My ability to have at-home painted nails that approached the look of manicures went up greatly as soon as I worked out the following method:

@andheartss haz it: WORD. I lived there for a year and this clip doesn't convey even half of the annoying chaos around the area.

I have seen him in person twice. He is incredibly (as in, I'd really be incredulous if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes) even more attractive in person.

@aliasmisskat is kung fu fighing...: Daily, I check Jez, FourFour (Rich's blog), PopCandy. Often, I check Cake Wrecks, Texts from Last Night, Unnecessary Quotes, Apartment Therapy, and ONTD (for the awesome gifs). Maybe there's something there interesting for you. :)

Question ... I get that open threads are going to be closed after the weekend so they can't be a hang out/message board-type situation, but is there some way to close the comments without making them un-see-able? I went back today to try to find something said in a comment there and they seem to be completely gone.

@tonightineed is actually Mrs. Ziegler-Spock: [watchtrueblood.net] and [watchtruebloodseries.com] are the ones I've found posting it the quickest. I'm desperate for my TB fix as well.

@Pieces of Pi and her vagabond dreams: I am in this same exact predicament! It's torture having to wait for my Lafayette/Eric/Jason fix. Is your b-day tonight? (If so, Happy Birthday!!) Mine's Wednesday.

My birthday is coming up this next week, and I am for some reason completely unable to come up with ideas for what to do besides go out to dinner or give myself the day off to do nothing. Anyone have great birthday experiences/stories/ideas?

@meloroast: I think I had this (self-diagnosed). For about a week, I'd do the two exercises in the middle of this page to stretch my foot/calf out: [familydoctor.org]

@sequined: I have definitely done this, but it has never turned out to be the person.

@Samanthrax is Sarcastic: Being blonde in Italy got me a lot of attention I didn't want. Not necessarily like royalty, though. Everyone thought they could take advantage of me as an obvious foreigner who apparently didn't know any better.

@VirginiaDentata: Is that Nathan Fillion's lovely behind as your picture, miss? Thank you for bringing it back into my life and reminding me that it has been awhile since I've re-watched the Firefly blooper reel ... and off I go.

@IrockIroll: Little. I know it's serious if I'm willing to be the big spoon for someone; that is how deep my little spoon tendencies go.

I've had awful conversations like this, where you just have to say things that put you entirely out there and you know may not be returned well. I can only imagine having to say them on CAMERA. Best wishes to Russ.

I just graduated from NYU and yet I cannot figure out where they might be ... I can't think of any building with that NYU-declaring tape in its windows.

I see he is testing the boundaries of my obsession ... but it will not happen Zachary! The fantasies will still abound.

@captainhaddock: Thirded. The more Zachary Quinto in my life, the better.

"As for him, if he matters at all..."

I know there are a lot of serious issues here, but I couldn't get past the interviewer in the first part saying, "Don't ... do it, don't have the sex."

@marvel girl: Taylor Hicks! Oh man, he totally does look like that dude.
