Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I should be doing work and laundry. What I really want to be doing is lying down on my bed. Going out to lunch should not be tiring. Hmm. I think I'm not all the way better yet, which is REALLY ANNOYING. Maybe I'll take a sick day tomorrow? That seems ridiculous, but then I could both rest and get stuff done. Stupid insisting on seeing friends!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I think, if I'm crazy, I may get an extension on this paper, so it's no big if I am, but does anyone remember a poll a while back on support in various countries for evolution? I can't find any such thing.

I'm actually going to get a post before 50!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Hello, new thread.

From the NYT:

WASHINGTON (Sept. 24) — A stark assessment of terrorism trends by American intelligence agencies has found that the American invasion and occupation of Iraq has helped spawn a new generation of Islamic radicalism and that the overall terrorist threat has grown since the Sept. 11 attacks.

No. Really? We couldn't possibly have anticipated that! </bitter sarcasm>

Now tagless for your comfort.

aurelia, I'm fairly certain that tag never closes.

Yeah. Every now and then I try though.

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

I wish I'd been creeping! At least I'd be having some down-low fun.

Just harassed my anthropologist sister about concepts of gender. I feel better. Not because I've cleared up my confusion, but because I've gotten her down to my level of "Huh?" Stupidity needs company.

Heh. Next time ask her about ritual.
