See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I doubt we'll ever see ita in this, though it'd certainly be magnificently horrific.

This costume, ita would seriously rock.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What was that show we were talking about months ago set in the near future where all the women wore purple wigs?

UFO. And it wasn't all women, the purple wig was apparently part of the uniform of military women stationed on the Moon.

A 30-year chief justice!

Yeah, but if he turns out to be a rational human being, capable of weighing all sides with compassion and intelligence (which is all I ask for), the neocons will scream bloody murder and get to smash themselves on getting life-time appointments overturned.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Tom, did the ophthalmologist say whether the vision problems could be corrected with lenses or anything?

No. I got the impression that there is nothing to be done.

Currently, my vision is blurry because the clot is causing some swelling. I just assumed that the permanent stuff would be due to cells dying due to loss of blood flow. But now that I think of it, it could be other stuff, like scar tissue or something.

I need one of those plastic eye kits or something.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Work continues to be crazy and yesterday my fax/copy machine died. Not good. Luckily, not only am I going to Staples to buy a new one, I called BF to come pick me up and take me there so we can steal away and have lunch together. Annoying errand + Hanging with BF = Fun.

A friend of mine who has vision loss due to eyeball bleeds (caused by a horrific accident, so YBloodyEMV) found that it manifested itself in blank spots. It was worst for her peripherial vision (she noticed it all the time) but head-on the brain mostly compensated, except when she was tired or something. One "hole" took out the space person's head would be fill, sitting 5 feet away. It freaked her out at first.

I need to be something not "forceful" nor "like a man."

Is Tigger too forceful?
