Hey, Connie, if you're reading this and you've skived off to the library or something for some mental health time, call your hubby, will you? He just called here.

Oh no, you're completely right, and it was hysterical in the sense that it's funny now.

I think the part that struck me the funniest was just how quickly Julia was willing to totally sell her brother down the river. And how oblivious she was to her own culpability, and her impending self-bust.

All right! So I sneaked out of work rather than causing stink and grief by murdering perfectly blameless people just because my hormones said to! I didn't know he was going to come looking for me after his doctor's appointment. Now it's a nationwide alert.

For what it's worth, I just got here about twenty minutes ago, and he found me here. Even before I got online.

Damn, when did I become predictable.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Julia is afraid of werewolves. Long story. Anyhow, she doesn't want to go upstairs if nobody else is up there. Ever. However, she will take Chris with her and go up, even though he's smaller than she. One day, I said, "You're bigger than Chris is, Julia. There's no such thing as werewolves, but if there were, Chris couldn't protect you. What are you planning to do--throw him to the werewolf, so that you can escape."

Of course she was.

...

Poor Connie, can't even sneak off to the library.

I knew it was impending homicide, for crying out loud: I am so sick that I cancelled dinner with Daysha to stay in bed, I was called out of bed, therefore I was committed to staying out of bed until I found out. If I could reach through the screen I'd punch you in the snoot for yelling at me. So there.

I wasn't yelling at her! I was yelling at the fates! I know she's sick and icky and I wouldn't yell at her anyway, and I'm gonna go eat worms.

Worms, not words. Words are tasty.

And you'd best not be giggling, Empress.

... y'know how sometimes, when you're looking for distraction, you google the names of old friends?

I just found my childhood best friend. I am currently staring at the website and trying to decide if I want to email him. This is very, very odd.

Could be worse. I could be staring at you.

Jilli, I found an ex's wedding album doing that.
