Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Nilly's got a virus? That's no good! Get well soon, Nilly. We miss you!

What is even happening?

I don't think she's posted since: Nilly "Natter 36: But We Digress..." Jun 20, 2005 8:27:28 am PDT, and she mentioned it, then. I knew we wouldn't see her over the Sabbath, but I thought we'd see her by now.

I can't keep up in Natter any more, so I missed that. I do love poking my head in in the morning, though, when Nilly is around.

She pokes her head into Minearverse from time to time. I don't think I hit any other threads (regularly) where Nilly posts. She probably posts in Firefly, but I rarely make it in there, any more.

yep. And Perkins! though I don't know if Perkins is diving or snorkeling. Hell, I don't know if I'm diving or snorkelling. I'd prefer to dive, but I don't know if I'll be able to.

Thing I forgot to mention about the wedding. The recessional was Love Train.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG I'm totally copying that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

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

I don't know if Perkins is diving or snorkeling.

Unless my allergies magically go away and my respiratory system and ear canals magically heal by then, probaly snorkling, but maybe I can get a doctor to sign off on diving.

I am feeling very responsible today -- not only did I go through an enormous pile of mail, I closed out a credit card account I never use. It's got the highest credit limit and also the highest interest rate. That should help my credit rating, right?
