Then I fall over with exhaustion at how busy ideal me is.
YES. "I'll study Shakespeare! I'll own a karaoke bar! I'll become a massage therapist!" Oy.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Clearly, you and I should go into business together, juliana. For we have ideas that are both right and good.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
FWIW, I didn't publish my first book until mere weeks before I turned 40.
I turn 40 in ten weeks. Crap.

Yes. Also, we are very pretty and can hold our liquor.

Always Anti-fascist!
I know the feeling. Although the worst part of mine is that people think they *know* what I do already. "You're so lucky...not having to work or anything." I don't know whether to hit those people or feel like "Shit, your job is fucking sad. Sorry, bunk."Dude, Scola...smile at me the right way and I could give you mine. It's not perfect, but...

True!
ETA: My cousin has just started attending therapy. Technically it's supposed to only be for people who survived the storm, but the therapist decided K could take advantage of the program anyway. Point is, when she was talking about how great it is to talk about her shit and know that it's normal and stuff, I was thinking "But I don't need that! I have buffistas to validate my craxy!"
ETAA: Sad when the ETA is longer than the original post.

Start writing, buckoo!

Verifiably true.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
{{JZ}} Sorry for the woes.
I want to publish a book. But I suppose I have to write one first. And I suppose I have to have an idea before that.

Yes! I think this every time someone suggests I go to talky therapy. And then I go to the bar.
I think I need more of a life-coach-type personage - someone to throw out suggestions and bounce shit off of and then kick my ass when I don't follow up. Except I have buffistae for that, too.
I TOTALLY want to open up a karaoke bar/lounge with regular Shakespeare discussions and beauty tips and massages with Daisy now. I think we would make one MEEEEELION dollars.
