Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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

is it possible to skip the running tomorrow, for the "day off" sake of it?

I'm sure there's a reason that didn't occur to me.

We'll see how I feel tomorrow. I just got invited to an 8am meeting, which I find much easier to make if I do run first.

so for those of us who just drink COFFEE, it's not very helpful.)

you know what I hate? when you pick up your coffee cup, try to take a last sip, and there's no coffee left, just the teasing aroma of the Coffee that Once Was.

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

Oh, that's the worst.

Teppy, Kate - I owe you both answers, but I have to run out now. Some other time, then? The topics are too serious and important to me to short-cut my way through a hurried version of not-really-an-answer, OK?

Have good rest-of-the-day, Friday and weekends, everybody!

Apropos of nothing except my own Tv viewing habits, this week's Rescue Me is fun. Bizarro Tommy with faith and everyone happy! More than a little surreal.

Thanks for mentioning that -t. I've been meaning to say how I thought that Shiny Happy Denis Leary was simultaneously one of the funniest and creepiest things I've ever seen.

I know, Frankenbuddha! I kept thinking. who's dream are we seeing? But no one ever woke up. So weird. And so funny.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good lord. I am freezing and bored and I thought I'd do some filing (that's when you know it's bad), but I can't get into the office with the file cabinets. BAH.

I thought for sure that the fall through the floor was going to snap him out of it somehow, but noooo. Heh.

Rescue Me:

I'm still getting the giggles when I think about Tommy doing "the passenger" to Mike's (Probie's) "driver" in that silly dance. And I'm with you guys on uppers!Tommy. Creee peee.
