Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Round here lately, I just go outside.

Really, though, they only hold appeal to me in the winter when I'm in a near constant state of chilled-to-the-bone or I've got some nasty head-invading disease.

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

Note to self: Go to Russian-Turkish baths for sauna. They have this awesome rock room with ice cold water to pour over yourself, so you can stay in there a long time.

I *love* that room. You can also pay an elderly Russian woman to beat you with oak leaves while you're in there.

NO,YOU!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course, sitting here in my icy office makes the sauna sound much more inviting than it would outside. I think the perfect time to go to the baths is when it's like 65-70 outside, so you appreciate the hot inside, but can still hang out outside.

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

According to Salary.com, the 10 least affordable cities for paycheck earners are:

  • San Francisco
  • Stamford, Conn.
  • San Jose, Calif.
  • San Diego
  • Santa Barbara, Calif.
  • Bakersfield, Calif.
  • Los Angeles

Wow. I figured NY would top the list, but LA is far lower than I'd have thought.

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

The funny thing is, walking around in the heat and humidity I get pretty miserable pretty fast.

I think it's a matter of clothing.

Fresno? Why does that amuse me so much?

I'm guessing Stamford has got to be due proximity to NY.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I like saunas, but I can't bear steam rooms. Makes me feel like I can't breathe.
