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.

Report on BK chicken fries. They are yum, but I want a Ranch dipping sauce, this Buffalo one is kinda nast.

move out and draw fire

Also, Raq, if you're still around.... I tagged you

I'm back, and I'm It!

I was just debating whether to ask for some health~ma in Press, and it occurred to me that the Buffista "-ma" tradition is tantamount to prayer.

I received the most annoying of all bill hammocks today: Handed the tollbooth guy € 3 for the € 2.50 toll. He handed me my change all wadded up in the receipt. Seriously, he'd crumpled the receipt around the change, so I couldn't just drop it into the change cup without looking while accelerating away and trying to not ram anyone. I dropped the whole thing into the passenger seat to deal with later, and the change promptly escaped the wadded paper and headed for the upholstery crease.

That which does not kill you should RUN

I saw a commercial for that last night. Were my tired eyes deceiving me or was the tagline for the chicken fries, Coq Roq?

On investigation, mine eyes were right: CoqRoq.com.

Dude, if there were CoqRoq t-shirts, I would SO buy one.

Coding and Sleeping

I'm feeling out of the family loop. I found out that my cousin got a divorce just because my mom mentioned his divorce in passing.

What'ca doing in Detroit Steph?

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

I get my change handed to me on tio of the stack of bill(s) pretty often, and it doesn't bother me. Making it into a hammock by holding the ends I haven't seen and think is weird.

My favorite way to get change is when the little auxiliary change machine spits it into a metal cup. I just think it's neat.

I found out my brother had gotten married the same way. From him.

But my brother is just WEIRD.

Oh wait, I just realized my good association with "Have a blessed day" --- in DC, can you still call that crazy cafeteria menu line with the lady who loves you so much and sings and whatnot? Man, she got me through many a bad day when I lived down there. I think she ended with "Have a blessed day." Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

The menu lady! Yes, I remember her. I enjoyed listening to her from time to time.

what, the Bible hasn't aired on the West Coast yet?

You even have to ask?

In three days, I am leaving for a week at the beach, and I am very, very happy about that.
