Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah, Aileann, while it is true that the probable cause involving drug cases can involve some fancy footwork, because police don't usually see behavior that conforms to the strictest legal definition, Tritter is the Savion Glover of law enforcement. House could probably sue for malicious prosecution. And, bastard or not, acclaimed life-saving doctor? He'd probably win.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Hmm. reading tru all that made me realizes that although I generally take my tea plain... I generally will do tea whichever way it comes.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Kat, should you decide in favor of pink, Manic Panic, despite the name, is nice and wholesome and pretty thoroughly fetus-benign. Or, if you go non-pink, I used Tints of Nature to kill the gray all through my pregnancy.

Sure to be a very late cross-post, as it took me 25 minutes to type this. Matilda's been weeping every time I set her down today, and I just now had to soothe her out of another meltdown. Fortunately for her, when she's being held she is cooing and snuzzly and utterly adorable.

Heh, did I ever tell the story about my sis getting hit on while driving - and not by someone in the car?

Newp! I swear, getting weird commentary from paused-alongside-cars is my single greatest argument about quitting the nic, somedays.

I totally get the rationale and logistics and all that reality, but I really like Kat's pink streaks. So there. I can't do pink, or really any other shade but blonde with my current box o'dye, so I envy it.

Aaaand y'all have completely made me NOT want tea.

t not really here, just checking email for a confirmation

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I have some pomegranate white tea that is not making me happy at all. Should I try the Roobios? I love saying it, roobios!

yep. the dark is the natural color. I could also just cut all of the pink out, but I've been enjoying wearing my hair in a braid. That will happen, I'm sure, in June or so.
Braids and such are fun to be able to do. I just called to bump my next hair cut back another three weeks. Now I know where "too short" is with this style. I can't clip it in a faux twist. Horrow!

And I will miss the pink if you cut it out. Though given my geography, I can keep the pink in my mental Kat picture and we could both be happy.

JZ! thanks. I'd love to stay pink and am sure Special Effects is probably fine. I just don't want to deal with the bleaching of all the new growth to make it be so.

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

I have some pomegranate white tea that is not making me happy at all

Is that the TJ's? It's kinda sour, but I still have it every now and again. It will eventually get used up.

I heartily recommend the rooibos. Almost like black tea, but not exactly. I never pause to think that it's caffeine free.

I will miss Kat's pink too, and lack your geographical invulnerability.

Okay, I gotta go make me tea.

Woot! I've almost cleared off the bed and made it well past my bedtime goal! now I have one more basket of clothing to sort, fold and store and I have a verifiable new wardrobe! So exciting. Thank you, burrell!

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

I did stuff too! My kitchen floor is now clean, and all the books kat and others gave me in the past month are stacked in my to-be-read shelves.

It is.
It's kinda sour,
Exactly. And not a pleasing to me sour, either.
but I still have it every now and again. It will eventually get used up.
Yeah... I keep hoping I am closer to finishing the box than I am. I have been using it to cut fruit juices. Still too damn much left in the box.

I heartily recommend the rooibos. Almost like black tea, but not exactly. I never pause to think that it's caffeine free.
I'll pick some up next time I go over there. Thanks!
