Whedonesque gets its own MySpace page.
Is it self-linking for a Whedonesque poster to point out that Whedonesque now has a MySpace page? Add The Big W to your Friends list!

Wanting kids and actually having them are two different things. Oh, now, come here, .org, you know we love you *hugs .org*. Of course you can borrow the car, .org. Here's $20, now go take you little sister Whedonesque the Library @ flickr out to see a movie, preferably one with vampires or Nathan Fillion.

Nothing. That's just a rumor that keeps going around at Bronze:Beta.
MySpace isn't that bad. If you log on, you can check if there's any messages so you can delete anything incoming that's from someone you don't know, and then read any blogs that showed up and then log back off as quickly as possible.
Wishing you all a safe and happy New Year's!

Could we also say, if we want to, from how far away we got our most distant holiday card/greeting? I doubt very much I could win, but I greatly exceeded my personal best this year.

Happy New Year from Mandurah, Western Australia. Mind you, it is 10:15am already here so you people are just sooooooo slow.

Boy/girl/being-in-your-own-right, that's a sad song we'll all dance to ;-).
Whedonesque was on teh ternet before it was even in, that's how cool Whedonesque is. It'd be uber-cool but that's too hot (right now) to be truly cool.
Also, billz, you forgot "Win one for the gipper !" ;).
(and Happy New-Year to everyone for whom it is new year, and catch up/what's your hurry to everyone else. I've resolved to absolve myself of any resolutions made
while drunkin haste but best of British to anyone taking huge stop-smoking shaped plunges, you'll find it both difficult and not worth it in the long run if you're as weak as me ;)PPS Nottingham, UK and Dubai, UAE, respectively.
PPPS Sorry about your hangover Catalyst2 (try Irn-Bru and sweet tea ;).

Dinner and champagne & presents with the partner & friends, idly opening my laptop (after all my wussy friends have passed out) to find it has located this hitherto unsuspected connection - and has clearly insisted that I log on, only to find out that whedonesque has gone to the dark side with the rest of us on myspace.
Shock and surprise and a kind of happy neausea. Oh, that's all the champagne. *hic-hic*
Happy New Year to all, continuing joy in Joss & his works, peace finally in the coming year, and more and better of what you all desire and need. *hic*
Did I ever tell you that you are the best on-line community or BLOG that I've ever known? *hic* No, I'm scherious, I wouldn't shit you guys, I really mean it *hic* I love you guys, I really do.
*hic-hic-hic*

Bleergh. Using Hiro-like powers (well, international time difference) i've travelled to the future and it's a place of bleary eyes, headaches and hurried checking of drunken ramblings. And no Anadin. Must go back and warn them, "Save the Anadin, Save the world !".
All the best again to all and here's to only good things for '07.

Seriously, Happy New Year from Seattle (and Honolulu, but I'm visiting Seattle, so. . . .)!!
A little late with the chiming in & all, but we spent the countdown in front of the fireplace with the bubbly and then with the blurry, and then with the snoring on the sofa. Lord, getting old is a bitch. . . .
Best wishes to all of you for 2007!

It's really strange kicking. The physical suffering part I'm familiar with, and can deal. But there are all kinds of weird thoughts/feelings/reactions. Like for instance I apparently have a fear of manikins now.
dreamlogic | January 02, 03:51 CET
billz | January 02, 04:12 CET
Aah, bit of blissful ignorance from billz there ;). A wise woman told me "Once you've been a smoker, you're _never_ a non-smoker, the best you can hope for is ex-smoker" and truer words were never spoken. OzLady's advice was also spot-on IMO, if you fall off the wagon it's tempting to say 'Bugger it' and just start chuffing away again, trick is to see it as a blip on the road to packing them in and let yourself off for the odd, occasional transgression. Especially if it's the Christmas work's night out and you're a bit drunk and you have, like, one, two absolute tops and you don't even enjoy it that much. Ahem ;).
(I second his wishes to everyone though and dreamlogic's advice. Of all the countless dumb things i've done in this life, starting smoking - especially at 19 when I should have known better - has to be right up there with the dumbest. Just say 'No' kids ! Crack, on the other hand, is actually good for you)
Saje | January 02, 05:16 CET
Aah, bit of blissful ignorance from billz there ;).
More like wishful suggesting, Saje my friend! I meant, maybe a person can substitute an addiction to tobacco with an addiction to posting to blogs? OK, you're still addicted, but with much less cancer and better smelling breath. Plus, less risk of setting the Christmas tree, which is now a dried-out mess dropping needles all over the floor, on fire. I'm just sayin'. (Note to self: help mom take out the tree tomorrow.) ;-)
Still, I know it's really hard to change habits, and, yes, OzLady's advice is good indeed -- why is it always easier to forgive your friends for doing dumb things (that they didn't do intentionally) than to forgive yourself? Well, that will now be a New Year's resolution for myself -- not to be mad at myself and feel like a complete doofus when I make a mistake, but just to let myself go back to being the same handsome, suave and hard-rockin' (but very humble) superstar I usually am. Or else to being myself. ;-)
billz | January 02, 05:34 CET
I cannot give any advice as I have never been a smoker, but I have been in love with two smokers in my life, one of them being my son's father. I can tell you that I felt a huge weight lift from me when he quit 13 1/2 years ago. I have been incredibly grateful that he has stayed off tobacco all these years. Not only will my son be more likely to have his father longer, but my son has never known a family where any member smoked and is therefor less likely to start smking himself.
So if you have a hard time quitting for yourself, maybe it would help that you will be making the people who love you that much happier if you quit. ...And yes, not giving up no matter how many times you have to start over does count. The one thing that Whedon shows have in common is the theme of not giving up no matter how bad the odds seem. You can do it. We will be happy to cheer you on.
newcj | January 02, 09:51 CET
@theonetruebix | January 02, 16:38 CET
And thank you to everyone who is so kindly praising my advice re. smoking cessation. It comes from the heart and from experience, sadly... and whoever said you're never a non-smoker hit the nail on the head! It's a lot like being an alcoholic: you don't stop being one, you just stop drinking; you don't stop being a smoker, you just stop smoking. Okay, have to stop talking about this or I will crave a smoke! LOL!
billz, you are a true and pure soul. I want to be you when I grow down! :-)
OzLady | January 02, 18:55 CET
OMG, thanks, OzLady! :-D
billz | January 02, 19:12 CET
I can't speak for OzLady, of course, but I think it might be too late for me - I'm not sure innocence and purity can be re-gained. I can appreciate them when I see them, though...
Blush down to your toes again, billz, 'cause I agree with The Lady Oz.
