Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Can you take/buy food to eat on the way there?

Yeah, I think that might be the best call. I wish I had a wetwipe. I'll just put a damn paper towel in a plastic bag and hope for the best.

Edit: HA! I meant to say a "damp" paper towel.

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

Good for you for calling, aurelia. But ugh.

What Jesse said, Aurelia. I'm glad the woman is okay, and that you were wearing your newest jammies.

Good luck on your interview, Jesse. I would eat something before you leave, and then have a protein bar (or a candy bar) with you that you can eat either right before you get there, or quickly during the afternoon.

I don't remember blood or weapons in it. I might have been doing my childhood wrong.

More threatening in the sense of likely to incite violence by the people who aren't singing "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall."

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Why do I think that Worzel was a scarecrow?

Because your memory is all too correct. He was indeed a scarecrow.

ita, the other day I saw a preview for a movie I bet you'd like, but I'll be damned if I can remember the title. It was French, I think? And action-y. It was called something like District 13, but that's not right. Anyone?

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

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

Okay, that totally makes sense.

Ooh. My interest is peakedpiqued.

What is even happening?

That's weird. I was just teaching Emmett a similar such schoolyard song the other day and realized it could count as theatening in the post-Columbine environment and that he shouldn't sing it at school.

Wise parenting. You and JZ should have a kid. Hey!

Got it! It was District B13. Or Banlieu 13. Or whatever. [link] [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What I want to know is

I know, right? I mean, why not just play it into the speakerphone? Wouldn't "cleaning it up" invalidate it as evidence, since the whole thing rests on it being untouched/un-tampered-with? That made no sense, even by 24 standards.

Congratulations Florida, you're getting a Scientology Super Power training center!
