Just Don't Cry Over It!


Jake's having an excellent World Milk Day, but I hope his arteries are prepared for the incoming cholesterol. At least he should be good and relaxed by then, assuming he doesn't spill any and accidentally set the house on fire.

If he takes too big of a drink and chokes, the good news is that it's National Heimlich Maneuver Day and rescue should be at hand! The bad news is that while Daria claims to know the Heimlich, in reality she only tried it once...on a non-choking Quinn.

On this day in 1997, The Washington Post published "Wither Daria: Meet The Teen Terminator," an overview of the show in the early days along with an interview with Eichler and Susie Lewis Lynn. Among other things, we learn that Eichler expects Daria to become "a story editor of a cable show...who has a PhD in French literature." Sacré bleu!

Fanfic Update!
  • Daria's Party Addition, by DrT9999 (parts 13 and 14): "Jane could tell Daria was in a foul mood the next Monday morning as they headed towards the school together." (Part 14)

  • Heavenly Wine and Roses, by riotsquirrrl (part 7): "Daria knocks on Quinn's door frame. Quinn looks up from her fashion magazine and gives Daria a lopsided smile."

  • I (Don't) Want to Be a Part of It, by ladyevil (part 7): "Buddy’s was as busy as any Bar and Grill in New York City during the lunch rush. A tall lady bartender with dark mahogany skin and hair in cornrows kept sparing a glance at the front door in between serving customers."

  • Strange How We Know Each Other, by riotsquirrrl (COMPLETE!): "Jane blinked her eyes. She looked down at her hands. Her hands."
