New Year’s Entire Weekend Open Thread

Please consider this your home until Monday. Have at it, my beautiful librarians and archivists! Any comments speculating about whether the divine Ms Carrie Fisher Has Had Work Done will be punted into the snow.

On a personal note, this has been both an amazing, incredible year for me and a challenging, sometimes overwhelming one, and, like Sherlock, it is always redeemed by the warmth and constancy of your internet friendship. I hope you all have a wonderful 2016, filled with friends and fulfilling work and love and food and books and original Netflix content and dogs.

Also, I STILL haven’t unpacked the tote boxes, so my house looks like the end of an Indiana Jones movie, but rest assured, you have not missed them!

    They are only there while the food is out, but I bet they left you some nice sardines! Many of the cats also enjoy some of the fancier toys.

    Hi Columbus toasts! It was so great to meet y'all! I'm always up for coffee/wine/coffee and wine.

    the experience is not complete without the terrible episodes, too. it's part of what makes a ST fan an ST Fan. i say WATCH THEM AAAAALL!

    i second the recommendation to get ahold of the original pilot. must see!

    my absolute faves are anything Borg related. i've compiled all of the Borg episodes into a single chronological collection and I've seen First Contact so many times that there are grooves worn into my DVD.

    I had to swipe the app away and restart it completely before any cats would visit me. Have you tried that already?

    This does raise a question, though— is the app designed to deplete the food you set out, whether or not any cats appear? Otherwise, who swiped your sashimi?

    Ha, I will take this advice into consideration. 🙂

    The pilot isn't hard to get ahold of at all, it's on Netflix so was what played first when I started. I liked it better than the two episodes I've see with the usual cast.

    Emily here! Ok, this comment is super old, but if anyone checks back, I made an email address for the meet up info. If you live in the Triangle area and are interested in meeting up, email [email protected]. I had no idea how to organize this, but I figured I could make an email thread and we could organize it, without posting info about location, etc, on a public forum.
