I'm having trouble picturing Bogart with an echidna.
Going back to yesterday, I can't believe nobody else thought: "Here's looking at you, echidna."
Anybody can be a prop class clown.

What is even happening?
SA, come back and tell me how to be one, because I think I've got it down, and then I encounter the humans, and I find I'm right back at square one.

In other news, what are the implications for Wally? [link]

Punishingly Intricate
It was like 12 inches of hair, donated it all to locks of love.
wow! Good for you!! It is super sassy and flattering.
My hair obsession right now is wondering what would happen if I let all the dye grow/get cut out of my hair. How much grey do I really have? What would it look like? Looking at my roots it seems that I've gotten a LOT more grey hairs in the last year.
I so do not have the patience for what would be months of fading out dye.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Ew, Cindy, that's right up there with the worst of ita's links.

HAR. You make me think of Chesterton saying tartly, "It is not true that Christianity has been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried." If he were alive today he'd have to add something about all the Robertsons and Dobsons who wouldn't know the real deal if it kicked them in the ass, but who still won't shut up about it and are tainting it and turning it into an insult and a label of shame. Only he'd be a lot more crisp and witty and British about it.
SA, you look amazing - your hair frames your face beautifully, and the curls look so lush and springy without all that weight pulling them down.
Raq, that whole nasty business with the kids and the videotape (the fuck?!?) and the parents and the antiSemitism is just horrifying. Just... ugh. What a foul bunch of humans (which leads right back to Cindy's post above).
And WTF with not being paid yet? How on earth are your employers justifying this? Why are they not moving heaven and earth to fix it? I'm totally wroth on your behalf.

The topic of "real" faith has been large in my life lately...regardless of what that faith may be. Is it simply a belief, or more importantly, a code by which one chooses to navigate life...separate or in concert with intercession? Lots of deep discussion on this subject but no real resolution.
On the Fella front. Good news. It seems our issues may be rapidly resolving. He had a list of things he needed to go away and do before we moved any further and he's been busy-beavering them with gusto.
He also mentioned last night that he got a 'sign' (I'm big into signs) about 6 months ago that...I'm the one! We will, of course, see...but it has gone from a bit angsty to really fun.
I have a 'quest' for him to undertake in recompense and he's pretty excited about it. We both use metaphor like crazy and this adventure is fraught with it.
Also? One of the reasons he waited a year to call is that he thought I had kids! HAR. (I talk about the 'boys' that I take to see boy movies and have been known to call Bartleby 'my little boy.') Bless his heart for plucking up the courage anyway.

Hadn't heard that one. I knew a bunch of people in Sanctuary and other social justice groups who had bumper stickers reading "Christianity hasn't failed; it hasn't been tried yet," which I'm guessing was inspired by it.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

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

I've heard the same thing said about Socialism. Haven't seen it on a bumper sticker, though.
