Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

David - the first thing Matt said was "does he have all his fingers" - but you said he did well - so I am guessing he is intact. Matt's newest project is teaching an 11 yr old neighbor to make a guitar. He really is into the project, but I think the kid likes the concept of power tools quite a bit, too.

Congratulations ita! I was just crossing my fingers that you wouldn't get hurt today. Which, I guess you technically didn't while actually taking the test...

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

It's a gift. I kneed myself in the face in my yellow belt test and gave myself a bloody nose. Giving myself a black eye is part of a long and honoured tradition. One of the instructors cheered me up (not really) by telling me he rolled his ankle badly going back to his car after our test.

It's life that'll kill ya.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Knife defense, machine gun defense, you people need sidewalk defense.

I'm getting the pig!

Good to hear that the bay area-istas had a fun gathering.

Thanks, ita. There's still two other eps of Mile High on my On Demand menu thingie. I'll have to check them out during the week.

TV tonight is trying really superduper hard to break me. Probably best if I go to bed before the reality of the news starts.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Congrats, ita.

Do you have things to wear with a brown belt?

Nothing.

Attention getting, but I'm not sure that'll draw the eye to the belt.

It's a rough world out there.

"I wish I knew how to quit you" is the new "Show me the money."

Having heard Kravback Mountain jokes today, I do agree.

Hubby's watching "The Transporter". My god, that girl only exists to be slept with and to scream. And scream. Then scream some more. I don't want filtering software to clean up the dirty language and naughty bits, I want filtering software to eliminate the obnoxious screaming of useless females.
