It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Horoscopes, OTOH, are an unbiased news source.

True fact. The only thing is to make sure you know when they're talking about you (awesome things) and when they're talking about all those other people (crappy things).

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

ah, monday mornings that start with a trip to the dentist! Perkins, you are the luckiest girl in the world!

I KNOW!

I've been at work for over half an hour. That's long enough, right?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Some days, my job makes me wonder why I am not an ax-murderer. Today is one of those days.

Who's got the hatchet? I need to borrow it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Someone at work was just raving about him

Rave on, brothers and sisters!

Happy belated birthday, Allyson!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Raving in a good way?

Yep. He said some editor from the 33 and a third series was doing a reading at Vroman's in Pasadena this weekend, and then started raving about the Bubblegum Pop book and something about an Elephant but then i didn't know what he was talking about.

custom car shit is just so not my thing

But how can you not delight in the sheer joy that swallows your soul when you find yourself collapsed in hysterics on the floor after a irridescent-glitter-purple-and-green ford festiva drives by, tricked-out with purple neon lit underbelly, silver accents on all the fixtures, hydraulic shocks that allow it to do full body rotation, spinning rims and a sound system that causes the headlights to dim with each thump of the bass?

I loved driving the strip, just to point and laugh at the cars in the Gibson's/Kmart lots.... (take out the hydraulic shocks, and I've seen this car. Tears streaming down my face.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Who's got the hatchet? I need to borrow it.

Would UPS or FedEx be more convenient?

Always Anti-fascist!

Nuh uh...you get a junkie in the next jurisdiction over with a clean record to buy your ax...then you use it and they never connect it with you.(/Pelecanos likes carrots.) Straw purchase. Sometimes I fear my life is preparing me for life as a not-citizen.ETA: World's first cripspoitation flick?

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Trudy, you can call me whenever. I was in Red Lobster just two Saturdays ago and I thought of you. Unfortunately, the Red Lobster made me horribly sick. So that was sad. I'm just now coming out of it.

I watched a marathon of Week of Dressing Dangerously yesterday and was quite entertained. I just thought of it because of the neon car conversation. Because one of the men had to dress like a pimp one day (white suit, white fur coat, pimp stick, double diamond bling earrings) and it was very, very funny. Even funnier because fashion woman said that this was meant to represent "successful" and I thought, "In what universe is pimp-wear the image of the successful man?"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Blah. My salad is unsatisfactory. Stupid Monday.
