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

My actual 30th birthday was the bomb. Well, the day itself was whatever like all of my birthdays (morning with family, then travel), but I got a surprise party a couple of weeks earlier! With special guests from out of town! And all of my friends! It was fab.

I had a great 30th birthday party. The speech was extra-fun, I went through what I learned from my family. "From my father I learned that you can go to work every day in a wig and a dress and still command respect. ...From Gareth I learned that all new kids at our high school get their heads flushed down the toilet. Then I got to high school and I learned that Gareth is a liar. ...And from my sister I learned that it was time to leave home." In response to Keiran's heckling, something about sexual positions, "I hear that your favourite position is man on top, woman in magazine." One of the few times I've seen him at a loss for a response.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The A/C that was just installed yesterday. dead today. They are coming to my house to fix or deem a replacement is needed on Friday. Feh is all I have to say.

After yesterday which pooped me, I had an even busier today.

phone calls with Israel, to work for an hour and a half, church, brunch with friends, walked 2 miles, some housewares shopping, then home.

I set about cooking and I think the chicken I had thawed out was bad, it smelled a little wrong when I cooked it, so into the trash it went. FEH again. But I did get 3 things made for lunches and dinners this week. That at least is a start.

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

I'm supposed to make myself a spinach fritatta for dinner, but now seems like too much effort, so I may be having something from TJs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Feh indeed, msbelle. At least it's nice and cool out.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

My actual 30th birthday kinda sucked, since it was Passover plus most of my friends were at a con I couldn't yet afford to attend.(I had been in DC less than a year at that point) The year as a whole was pretty good, as I bought a guitar and learned to play, went to my first Worldcon and generally enjoyed an actual social life.(That last one was new to me then, but not since)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

My 30th birthday I got dolled up in red leather pants and made out with random people on the dancefloor. It didn't suck.
