I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

What is even happening?

I wish Nora could be here. But she's definitely not not .

The subscribe/unsubscribe buttons are the best.
Yes, yes they are.

Hey, when did the first post become post #1, again? That's nice to see, too.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Those sound like good goals for a lot of us, as you say, only I'm not sure what this

Release others' expectations.

means.

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

I know it's been said before but the Subscribe/Unsubscribe buttons are the best!

Dude. Those are appropriate for so many of us.

Not to horn in on your conversation, but, wow, they really are.

amych, it means not letting what other people want of you and for you to define who you are.

Release others' expectations.
I took it to mean not to hold to them. In other words, my folks/coach/friends/teammates may expect whatever of me, but that's their issue, not mine.
