  1. Ms.Sandiego, I’ve listened to Jar of Hearts,too, too many times.
    I recommend Bailey’s on the rocks to go with that (they have a caramel variation of that, even) and some Warehouse 13 season 3 finale fanvids as the evening progresses.
    Congratulations on the awards, everyone!

    P.S.: Has anyone thought about Princess Bi secretly living as her soft butch alter ego someplace? Like maybe Key West?
    I mean…has anyone ever seen Kelly McGillis and her in the same room back in the day?

  2. Although I am proud of my alliteration I do not feel like I earned this award.

    But regardless I dedicate it to my 50 something year old cousin that I’ve met only twice, her lovely wife Jill who I met for the first time 2 weeks ago, and their adorable dogs who I hope to meet someday as well.

    To our gaylders!
