Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Huh. I didn't think the girl with the leg really fell apart at all. I think her BF yelled and harangued and insisted on quitting tasks until she cried and then bitched at her for crying. She got upset, sure, but not as bad as all that.

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

Today I churched, yoga'd, laundried, and cooked. Now I need to go to bed.

This week, eating better and going to bed earlier.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just emailed in sick/working from home for tomorrow. I actually do need to work from home, as there is quite a lot of work to be done. But I'm totally watching Without A Trace tonight -- staying up past my bed time!

Art Crawl!!!

Brenda - I agree. Now I'm thinking that it's not that I dislike Sarah AND Peter -- I just dislike Peter. I liked what Sarah sai in her confessional.

Yeah, me too. I also appreciated what she said about sometimes she cries, but she just keeps going, so STFU. It sounded like when people ask me if I'm upset, which, of course, makes me upset!

Also, in general, I swear to god, I don't know how people don't throttle their team members when they are yelling at them about what they should be doing in a road block. (Road block is the one that only one team member may perform, right?)

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

Tana told me I wanted a Bedazzler.

I don't know who Tana is, but she seemed very serious.

Brenda, you might be right. I wasn't always looking at the screen so I could have been confusing the really disfunctional couple's fighting with one-leg's reactions.

I love the sound of the word "plavix."
