Every year, I get a Djibouti Day card from a friend. Cracks me up every time.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I want a pretty boy to send me pretty flowers and tell me I'm pretty.
Hell, who needs V-Day? Those years when I was single in my 30s, I wanted this ALL THE TIME.

Hey grammar-types: Did any of you see the Chicago Tribune Magazine article on grammar this weekend? Worth a quick read.

wrod. Allyson,I'm not sure if this will help, but whenever I feel like a loser about not having an SO thinking it's cause I'm hideous or my personality sucks, I always think of you. Because I think "Allyson is smart and a babe. Feisty, too And she doesn't have one...maybe it's not easy." And ita hasn't found the right man to kick her in the head yet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
so this is our V-day. DH gave me some choclate that his co-workers kid was selling. yay!
and DH is away. some years ago I got some silver champagne flutes for us as an anniversary gift - with the idea that someday we were going to end up separated on an " important day. Like my birthday. our anniversary. his birthday, etc. So I packed up 1 flute - a bottle of sparkleing cider., a card and some conversation hearts in gift bag - so we can toast together while on the phone.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Umm, hello? Entire universe not about stupid couple-behavior guilt?
Oh, my GOD. I would have laughed heartily in her face.
I am of the firm opinion that Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, and New Year's Eve are for suckers*. Also, now Election Day has been added to that list.
- Note: not actually calling anyone enjoying said holiday a sucker. It is merely but a figure of speech, that means, "all hype, little meaning." Like the Fear Demon!
