Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Did you need people to be interesting, Emily? I got nothing.

I need people to be freaked out with me! That person who looks very much like me is on the Web!

Actually, it looks like she's carrying a messenger bag, which I haven't for a while (and it looks like this is last summer sometime), so it's probably not me. But it could have been! Right there! Reading a paper! At the bus stop!

No, you're right, it's totally not paranoia-worthy. It's still weird.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Pretty lady.

Does that help any?

She is very pretty. But depressingly thin. Which is very insensitive, as I am still mourning for my thinness.

No, I joke. The pretty is still pretty. Nice and grape-like. Mmmm, grape-covered Sandra Oh.

(Um, she is Sandra Oh, right? Cause I don't wanna be like that Oscars announcer who mangled Ziyi Zhang's name so badly.)

(Oh crap, I missed the Tonys which Hugh Jackman was hosting, didn't I? Shoot. He's such a SEXY BITCH, too. I feel like a negligent fangirl.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Pizza world tour:

On Sunday, I set sail for my own pizza quest, leaving my apartment at a painfully early 10:45 a.m. I wouldn’t return home until 1:05 the next morning, having ridden the Q, Q, G, E, F, 4, Bx19, 2, 1, Staten Island Ferry, x44, x44, Staten Island Ferry, and the R, and having sampled pizza in all five of New York’s esteemed boroughs in one day. And just like my parents like to rehash their journey across the choppy Atlantic, I’ll share with you the multifaceted adventure that was the Pizza World Tour.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

ita's been touched by an angel

She's been bitchslapped by an angel from the look of it.

She looks like a tiny woman, but there's flesh wrapped around her bones.

This exact same sentence appears in the Monster Manual III.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sandra Oh really brings out the "Why don't I look like that?" in me with that picture.

I made my resume public on Monster today while applying for something or other, and I already have gotten an e-mail and a phone call trying to entice me into a life of selling insurance.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You know who's evil? Betsy, that's who. This morning on the way to work, I went to the vet's office she recommended, and they have kittens that are up for adoption.

Really really cute kittens.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You need a new kitten.
