Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

Dang. I made Natter have -1 new.

Also, I made post #738 of 737. Clearly, I have superpowers.

And Emaryn is, what, eligible to vote already? (It seems that way, damn it.)

She turns seven this summer. Her biggest present is horse riding lessons. She's in the process of moving from being a dino fan to a horse fan.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Clearly, I have superpowers.

Someone should write a column about you on Girl-Wonder!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I've been itching to turn 30 for my last few birthdays because I feel like when I get there, I will finally feel my age for the first time ever in my life.

I have never gotten used to being a "young adult," ever.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

blushing furiously at the many sweet compliments

Hey, what adult birthday celebrations have you had or been to that were particularly fun or memorable? I might steal pay homage to them in whatever I end up doing.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm 30 Right Now AIFG. But I'm on a big Crusade To Appreciate The Age I Am While I Am It. 'Cause I think I spent too much time wishing I was a different age and I have no interest in doing that for the rest of my life, 'cause then I miss all the ages wishing I was something else.

Horses are more accessible. My older sister did this, too, reportedly at about the same age.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I honestly don't remember what I did for my 30th birthday. I've been thinking about it since yesterday and I seriously cannot remember.

My birthdays in my 30's have been either depressing or not memorable. Just the actual days themselves. I'm enjoying living the actual decade even tho some spectacularly crappy things have happened in it.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

My theory on turning 30 is that it's almost guaranteed to be better than 29 was.

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'm having a hard time believing that my little baby Leif is going to be four in a few days.

Amazing.
