GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Open caskets creep me out, although every time I've been to a funeral (which has thankfully been few) that's been open casket I feel socially obligated to join the line passing by to pay last respects, even though I'd rather keep my distance.

The only funeral I've been to that wasn't open casket was my great grandmother's memorial service. Her body was cremated and the ashes cast into the sea by the Navy where her husband was lost during WWII (she never remarried).

I have no idea what I want done with my remains after I'm gone. I don't think I've quite accepted my mortality yet.

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

Best of luck, shrift. May the grace of Ann Taylor (and her Loft, if needed) be with you.

I am so in touch with my mortality that I need a nap.

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

Good luck, shrift!!

Some cynical bloggers think that it's an attempt to calm things down in Afghanistan before we attack Iran.

Me too. But the guy I'm doing freelance consulting for called to cancel our appointment - so I get to go home! Plans for tonight:

  • Eat.
  • Solder a new infrared LED onto my robot.

Thanks! I have a very nice black jacket and tulip skirt from Ann Taylor that I'll be wearing, as well as some items prepared (for once) when they ask if I have any questions.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Go shrift, go!

A friend of mine invited me to porn bingo tomorrow night. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
