Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Shannen Doherty

Oy. I actually liked her in Charmed, but this seems like a recipe for disaster.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

When I decided to break my slothful weekend routine and go on a day trip to St. Louis, I had no idea exactly how much excitement I was getting into. A couple hours ago I ended up in a high-speed game of chicken on the highway, having to swerve into the median to avoid a head-on-collision with the crazy son of a bitch that was driving north in the southbound passing lane of I-55. Managed to get my car back on the highway unaided (unlike last time), but I think I may need to start keeping a gun in my car if this sort of thing is going to keep happening.

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

Ack, Matt! I'm glad you are okay.

I just hope everyone else on the road is, crazy driver excepted. When I got my car stopped and ready to return to the highway, there were cars coming from behind me in both lanes, which may indicate that the nutjob veered offroad too, or that they just broke into two lines again after dodging him.

Also, my cell phone will not dial directory assistance or the operator in that part of Missouri.

Another Ack. I hope the rest of your weekend is calmer, or at least less scary.

Thanks. Hopefully it will be, as I plan on spending it in my apartment.

That sounds like a good plan, all things considered.

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

Oy. Matt, that sounds horrible. I'm glad you're okay.

And I hope that Allyson is marshalling forces for an onslaught. That bathroom thing is ten kinds of wrong.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's terrifying, Matt. A similar thing happened one time when I was a kid driving with my parents. Sadly for my father, my mother and I were both reading or napping or something, and missed the whole thing until it was over, so he was all alone in his trauma.
