Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Going dark gray until Wednesday as I drive up to Canada to celebrate the resurrection of my in-laws' savior.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

If anyone has any spare job-ma hanging around, I'd be grateful if you could send Good Wishes towards my best friend/flatmate, who has headed back to Britain for a fortnight in search of a job for next year. She doesn't have any interviews lined up yet, which is pretty scary, but she's a smashing teacher. And she's sort of a Buffista-by-proxy.

Going dark until Tuesday, or, more likely, Wednsday. Off to Maine for Easter and escaping Marathon Monday.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Needing Job~ma, as I have just quit the one I got when I first rolled into town here in Minnesota. Thanks.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Some late-night prayers and -ma requested for my best friend, Kerrie, and her family. Her brother texted her (and several other people) earlier this evening that he's "in too much pain" and going to end it. His family has the sherriffs on the lookout for him, but no one knows where he is. I tend to think this is more "cry for attention" than anything else, but if nothing else, this has his family completely freaked. Their mother's health is not the best, and poor Kerrie's in Maryland so can't be with her folks during this. All prayers and vibes are greatly appreciated.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Kerrie's brother came in on his own late Saturday night/Sunday morning. Thanks for the -ma you all provided. A little more as his family tries to help him get straightened out would also be appreciated.

I'm going out of town for two and a half days and will probably be incommunicado during that time. Just in case it was salient...
