"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Aww! I was so excited. They'd named it after me!
I feel a little odd about the poor buried Lisas.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I don't like the sound of that AT ALL.

Hehehe.

I'll bet you could get a really odd song from that, lisah!
There are two books I can't read without getting seriously mental and it's ridiculous: Dearest Prickles and Uncle Socks. Yeah, I know. I even left them at my parents' house to keep from re-reading and flipping out. I've got weird issues...
GA pinged what I'm beginning to think are serious parent issues I have. Kinda a mess right now. Oh well. Las Vegas time. Nothing like goofy shiny crap to clear that up.

seriously! although it is disturbing to me on a very fundamental level. but being disturbed can make the art good.
right now we are working on a song about that really tall man (possibly the tallest) in China who saved the dolphin's life. Remember that story? It will be called "Reach into the Dolphin."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hello. I am back from a day of krav. My stomach hurts like a bitch and my knee is under ice.
I am 45 minutes into a video skype with my sister wherein I seem to have volunteered myself to redraft a map for a biathlon she's organising.
Tummy hurts.
But I need 'za. Luckily I can order that online as I sit here looking at the back of my sister's head as she scans on the other computer.

Awesome, lisah! I'm kinda embarrassed I don't get to more of your shows, but I'm kinda a hermit.
I'm kinda afeared of video "calls." Cause while I have no problem wandering around, doing unnoisy chores while on the phone, I think a camera would paralyze me. Even with people who are used to me.

This is my sister, so no biggie.
Now she's on the phone with the co-organiser of the race. It's in a couple weeks, the extant map is crap, and they're not even totally sure of the route.
