Eyeliner, brown and gray. They weren't very good. I kept doodling on my arms and thinking, "Man, if only Alibelle were here, she could give me perfect track marks!"

Aww. That is the sweetest thing I've heard all day.

Always glad to spread a ray of morbid sunshine!

You rang? Seriously, I've been looking up "defense wounds" for a good part of today and that seemed like a good time to, you know, show up and wave, at least. Hi!

The creep.

From what I've heard of the guy from people who have dealt with him personally, he is a real jerk. There is no doubt this is all about intimidation.

Always glad to spread a ray of morbid sunshine!

Always appreciated!

Tell them you're moving to Portland. Go to Portland. Then sneak off to SF

Or move to Portland really! I like Portland! I want someone to live there so I can come visit!

(Actually, I think there are. These people are wrong.)

Indeed. People who do not love the Princess Bride are CRAZY. Even any Bitches I'm sure I'm about to read about.

I am quite frightened that my parents would move nearer where I am. This is my ONLY reason to not encourage my sister to move to where I am.

occasionally makes comments about my moving there to be the madwoman in the attic.

Being the madwoman in the attic sounds like fun! NSM in my mother's attic, though.

I'm not suggesting that a pack of dogs is the solution for your neighborhood (though - fun!)

Apparently the coyotes are filling up Rock Creek Park, do you think this will help my gangbanger problem in Columbia Heights? :)

Every doctor nailed the addiction because of the track marks, but pretty much solely because of the track marks.

So if someone is shooting up between their toes, the doctor will be clueless, eh? Next time make it hard on 'em, JZ!

I have the duty to investigate and prosecute child rape and other crimes in order to protect Kansas children

Ugh. Why do I get the feeling there'd be a better way for him to go about that, hmm?

Aaaaaargh.

Sorry. Just had an incredibly frustrating day.

There are some days I love teaching. This was not one of them.

I have the duty to investigate and prosecute child rape and other crimes in order to protect Kansas children

Ugh. So what's he planning to do with this information? Go ask all those 15-year-old girls who had abortions, "Who was the father? We want to put him in jail"?

Or, of course, scare any other under-16 girls away from having abortions because of the threat of their parents finding out, and get info on what doctors are performing late-term abortions.

Taht attorney general is an ass, Iw ant to beat him upside the head.

In other news -- I bought a new comforter set my new place!

This . I won't be able to use it until I move and get the queen size bed.

Can I get an amen on the incredibly frustrating day? ((Hil))

One thing that did help me today was the guidance of a very frank, frankly callous (emotionally), friend who said stuff that started with 'Screw'em' and ended with 'This is not your business. Get combat pay.'

She's right, I suppose. Being all honorable and shit makes me feel good about myself but doesn't really apply to my friends' business decisions.

It is a travesty that the Inn has been sold to nutbars but...hey...choices. Now I guess MY choice is to figure out how I can navigate the transition without draining my own energy and turning into a wingeing (how DO the Brits spell that excellent word?) idiot.

Thanks for the good thoughts today Bitches. Can't say I won't come back to the bracket buffet later but, for now, I'm on an even keel.
