I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My best friend does this with hers. Pixie even has her own special handbag. She has to wear pearls to the office though, unless it's casual Friday.

I have a friend with a Chihuahua who would LOVE this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Chihuahuas scare me.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Linz uses one of those huuge Juicy bowling bag purses. It's big enough for the dog, a couple of toys and her lovey. On weekends she has a Barbie bag.

If I only had a brain...

caffeinated beer.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

In a crowd situation, it's disconcerting being one of the few people other than the musicians who have rhythm. One time at a church service with more modern music, Ben turned to me, quite alarmed, and asked, "Mommy, is everyone clapping wrong?" The numbers were so against the right-clappers, he started to doubt his own rhythm, which is excellent.

I've been there so. many. times. I don't claim to be a good dancer, at least not with anything spontaneous--I do OK when there are steps to follow--but rhythm I have. And don't understand the lack of it. I mean, the beat is right there, being the beat. How do people not hear it?

I've also been in situations where most everyone is clapping together on the 2 and the 4, but one or two people stubbornly stick to the 1 and the 3. WTF? Can't they tell?

Drew Carey did that like three years ago.

The chick in the ad on the left of that beer article has a GREAT ass.

Ann, that's a ferret.

So you end up with a wide-awake drunk.

Hmmmmmm.

hip deep in pie

There was a brew pub here to did coffee beer. It tasted fine, but it smelled way better than it tasted.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Can't they tell?

Nope. They're having too much fun listening to themselves clap. Either that or they're not paying attention.

My gripe is when people clap along to something and they start speeding up.
