I'm going to the movies later this afternoon, so theoretically, I could clean my apartment before that, but instead I'm watching The Price Is Right. Awesome.
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I need to go see the Pep Boys about my flat tire (which rests comfortably in the back of my car) and also buy a garbage can and other useful stuff. It's cold and rainy out and I feel like stuff you scrape off the bottom of your shoe. The thought of sitting around in an automotive place while they do something about the tire is depressing me. I'd rather be fighting off infinite numbers of toddlers, frankly, even if they all have poopy diapers.

Ugh, Theodosia.

Swouncing
a b'day present to me
I skipped lots and lots and apparently in honor of your birthday, I ended up right on that post I just quoted. The universe wanted me to wish you "happy birthday" (it's not on the Buffista Calendar) - I had to post!
Happy birthday, msbelle! I hope the day will be lovely and the year will be wonderful.
Um, hi, everybody! I miss you guys. How are y'all doing?

Art Crawl!!!
Happy Birthday, msbelle!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hi Nilly!
It's a holiday - some of us have off today. But not me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, msbelle!
I woke up abruptly around 5 when my Ambien (I'm guessing) wore off. I watched some Deadwood and went back to bed. I then had a Deadwood-inspired dream, but what freaked me out is how I woke up. I'd swear that someone grabbed my shoulders and yanked me away from whoever I was talking to in the dream. That violent jerking is what woke me up, and it truly felt like it had happened in real life.
Freaky.
About the killer kids--they're trying to kill you? How? What do they know about killing? Swarming you from all angles?
I wouldn't think the snow fort would do you much good. More like providing them with a ramp of bodies so they can attack you from higher up too.
Now, assuming that these kids don't stop to cry or have tantrums or get scared and run away, I'd say the main factors are how fast they move. Because worst comes to worst, it's about them swarming you. When the piles of dead children build up, it makes it easier for them to drop on you. Or you could have kids grabbing you at the ankles, both ankles, while other kids climb over those to grab you higher up until you're covered in the wee things.
Can someone go get me some blueberries? And some cookies, just in case?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am at work, which is made better by knowing today is the birthday of the amazing MsBelle! Happy day, sweets!

That is freaky. Brains are weird.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
A) Piles of dead and ravening children? Upsetting.
B) Mmm, blueberries
C) What is up with all the nightmares? I've been having them too, mostly tied into or using characters from the old videos I've been burning off to dvd. Betrayal by long lost family members, rescue by long lost mentors. Lots of violence. Very unsettling.
