What? I write mysteries for a living, damn it.

Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I wanted to go much further with how far she'd gone from the rules of her childhood to where she was now, but I ran out of words.

I wonder if she's related to Jean, the girl leaving for San Francisco in 1967?

I was imagining her on the verge of divorce after years of being taught about the sanctity of marriage, yadda yadda. Obviously the drabble went elsewhere, persnickety little beastie.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I think Jilli should do her Gashlycrumb version of all the photos in the drabble pile. The washerwoman, the high-kicking headkerchief lassies, the cigarette and cocktail girls, the fox and the hound among the pigeons...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
These drabbles have all been amazing this week. Damn, y'all.

I just might do that. It depends on how the work week goes, but I think I'd like to try that.

Yay!
Er, um, that is to say, I, for one, will look forward with eagerness and anticipation to any stories you may happen to fabricate with the aforesaid photographs in mind. Yes. Thank you.
