Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Allyson, just because someone hasn't bought it yet, doesn't mean they won't. Maybe there will be a bunch of articles on the cover of newsmagazines profiling fandom. Then someone at some house goes, "Oh shit! Didn't we see a manuscript on that? Call the girl with the pretty hair RIGHT NOW!!!" Besides, moving on to something else will be good for a while.

On a completely unrelated topic- HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHIKAT!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I just did a vanity google and there's someone else with my name. And they live in Jamaica! Good thing I locked that gmail up.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I took a deep breath and started work on the next book.

Keep moving forward but don't ever give up hope. It's good and I'm sure the next one will be, too.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Weekend good: seeing friends, getting rid of bookshelves, getting power strips, cleaning house, getting replacement airport ordered, church, getting music to a friend, playing board games, loverly weather.

Weekend bad: not enough sleep, no cooking or baking, biting nails, not finishing book for tonight's bookclub.

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

Replacing JFK or La Guardia?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

getting replacement airport ordered

Are you replacing LaGuardia or JFK?

Weekend Good: Cleaning out massive amounts of crap from bedroom closet and hallway cupboards. Hanging out with Kristin and Debet. Finding a second carseat on sooper sale at Target. New slipcovers!

Weekend Bad: Getting sick.

Aww, shucks. It seems only fair you share them. Hogging all the migraines like that.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Weekend good: Went to a fundraiser with Smonster and Amyth. Bid on and won a nifty owl print. Got a whole bunch of stuff I've been meaning to do (in some cases for years) done.

Weekend bad: Started this month's book group book and realized I would probably spend most of the book hating one of the two leads. Good thing it's a quick read. Tried on potential dress for the fundraiser mentioned above and realized I'm still 5-10 pounds from looking good in it. Had minor "OMG I'll never get another good job in my entire life" meltdown Saturday. (Got over it, mostly.)
