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

See? See?? You get to dress up all pretty...

And play with weapons

So does she, FTR.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

See? See?? You get to dress up all pretty...

Some of the colonial-era gowns from yesterday were just glorious. I don't see myself ever going Victorian, but I like the colonial look almost as much as the Regency, and it's probably a better fit for my figure.

And play with weapons (those pictures are on my home computer)...

At least one of the redcoats yesterday was a woman, which I was happy to see, because I was afraid the two-X chromosome thing would preclude me from dressing up and playing soldier, which is half of what's sucking me into this.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Green jacket and a Baker rifle for Susan, I think.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Nope. Rev War and Civil War both had female soldiers. Some who cross-dressed and pretended to be men, some who didn't (at least in Civil War, don't know about Rev).

Because my dark side is fun and full of light sticks and fruity drinks.

The dark side is very enticing. Particularly when it comes in such close proximity to ChiKat's bosom.

10,000 mpg:

LONDON, England (CNN) -- An eco-car that can travel the world using a fraction of the electricity it takes to power a light bulb has been unveiled by its British creators.

The hydrogen-powered Ech2o needs just 25 Watts -- the equivalent of less than two gallons of petrol -- to complete the 25,000-mile global trip, while emitting nothing more hazardous than water, the UK's Press Association reported.

But with a top speed of 30mph, the journey would take more than a month to complete, even if the car was driven flat out with no pit-stops.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I have a new monitor, and everything is oddly stretched out. Idon't know the correct configuration for a flat screen and it makes MY EYEBALLS HURT.

FIREWORKS!!!!

Ah, right where we left off, Jesse.

We need an ironing board and a mattress pad. I don't want to go to Target today, so, chapeau. ^.

You could be Deborah Samson, aka Robert Shirtcliffe!! Make up a head wound bandage, as well as one for your thigh (she dug the musket ball out of her leg herself, to keep her secret--she ended up discovered due to a case of "brain fever"). Just remember that your uniform'll have to be circa 1782-3, from one of the Massachusetts regiments.
