Obviously I didn't, but I still think it would be amazing!

I have thought about that sometimes too. I would love to be a famous chef.

I do not want a TV show or anything, just to be the head chef at a very nice restaurant, maybe even own my own.

Oh well. I guess it will just be a hobby. I bet there are some schools in Pittsburgh you could take one or two classes for not too much money. If you school is big enough, they may even have their own classes! I know when I was in graduate school there was a department for hospitality management and they had some cooking classes.

Hope you are having a nice spring break.

I think it would be fun to cook for a living, too. But there's so much business and politics involved in it outside of the cooking part and that's the stuff I think would ruin the fun of it. Then again...I suppose that's pretty much present in any line of work in any industry.

(On a goofy side note, have you seen the new Bravo show - Top Chef or something like that? Kind of like American Idol for chefs.

I saw half of one episode and was appalled and entertained all at once...)

Spring break is going well. Kind of boring, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I head back to school tomorrow. Yuck.

Guess I should do all the homework I've been ignoring all break.

I think that is common to most jobs. People enjoy stabbing other people in the back. I guess it may be the inherent competitive nature of most people. Being a chef would be kind of fun, I think. Except for the hours. I am not much of a night owl.

I have never heard of that show, though in my defense, I do not get that channel. Sounds weird. There is a reality show for everything these days.

Ah homework.

I guess a person never really gets away from homework. It just changes into something else you have to do at home.

Hm. No big trip to somewhere sunny to escape the Northeast cold?

I like to think I didn't get the stab-people-in-the-back gene, instead being competitive but not manipulative. Then again, how many people who really are like that don't even know it, or would admit it if they did?

Suffice to say, I try not to be that person. I've known plenty and suffered for it.

Anyway...

No trips anywhere, just home. Nice to see the family again - home is all I really was looking for.

Truth be told, it wasn't even that cold. Saturday it was mid-70's.

I'm still holding out hope for one more big snow (we've gotten diddly in Pittsburgh this year), but it doesn't look good.

The weather sure has been warm lately. It got over 80 yesterday and it will be over 80 again today. :\ I hope this does not mean it will be really hot this summer.

Probably just as well that you have not gone traveling. I would imagine traveling during spring break would defeat the purpose of the break since you would probably be pretty tired.

I have a question for you. To get back to the concept of this message board, how did you start watching Firefly?

So close and yet...

Oh just a quite perfect line!

Last summer was ridiculously hot and humid, this summer will probably be the same, unfortunately. Hopefully, though, I'll be in an air conditioned office job most of the time...

Tomorrow's supposed to be below 40 and flurries. Maybe I'll get my last snowfall after all!

To answer your question, I came pretty late to Firefly. I missed it entirely when it was on TV (honestly, I don't even remember hearing anything about it). It wasn't until after I saw and fell in love with Serenity that I Netflix'd the DVDs and got hooked...and I've never looked back.

How about you?

Ok I lied about the Lisp

I like pretty much any sci-fi stuff,the Darker the better

Wow! A thirty-something in England... London, no less! - That’s a shocker - the first one I've come across reading through this thread!! (No puns of any kind intended for those with dirty minds)

So my go, I guess, (disclaimer: hey, I’ve already done the internet dating thing and what no one tells you is that all the men are deeply, deeply short!!)

SWF 33, blonde, would love to say petite, but am way too Saffronesque (in that unrestrained way) so will have to go with the more prosaic short, like being in the warm (preferably with a pint and stimulation of sorts) and, in my humble, nature pretty much sucks, seeking non-gay, non-Goth Wash-a-like to not be considered weird by …

Am fed up with the “one day you’ll find someone who’s right for you” followed by THE “look” … (and not the one of lurve neither) … is it me or is no one interested in films or books nowadays? *sigh*

oh and I live in Windsor (home counties, dahlink, not Canada)

You think PA and NJ are hot. You should live down here for a summer. :\ I thought I knew hot. After moving here I realized I do not know hot. :(

Interesting story behind how you found Firefly. So by "Serenity", do you mean the movie or the original pilot for the show? Me? I saw the ads on Fox. I saw "The Train Job" and "Out of Gas" when they aired but I remember Fox having to pre-empt Firefly for other things (I think baseball) a lot so I never got into a rhythm watching the show. I forgot about it after it was canceled and then another graduate student mentioned the show to me so I borrowed his VCDs (he got them off that bit torrent thing) over Christmas and got hooked. Bought the DVD set (my friend did not have all the episodes) and was really excited when the movie was coming out. Saw the movie opening weekend but did not get a chance to go back. After watching Firefly, I got hooked on Angel. Have you watched that show or Buffy?
