There was a solar eclipse when I was in 8th grade, and then another one a few years later that they let us out of high school to see. Both of them were really cool. I've seen a few lunar ones since then that gave me a visceral shudder, what with the funky-colored moon that was BEING EATEN UP!!!!
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, I'm about off to the same chick's house now, so maybe I can make her hate me again.
I think I saw an eclipse one time, but mostly I'm reading it as ellipse. Of which I've seen more, so maybe that's why.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
You don't expect some teenager in Alabama to be Spider-Man, and yet after the tornado...
For suddenly grief-struck parents like the mother and father of Andrew Jackson, a sturdy 16-year-old weightlifter, there was no consolation in their bewilderment.
"We lost a good man yesterday," said Andrew's father, Tim Jackson, his lip trembling as he stood in the family carport. He said witnesses had told them a heroic story of their son's last moments: Andrew held up a falling concrete beam long enough for another student to escape, then was crushed by it.

One of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time--How To Wash a Cat.
And this has mostly likely been posted here before, but I'd never seen it. Shark vs. Octopus.

My plan to drink the all the alcohol from bottles that only have a little bit left, leaving me with fewer bottles to move means I am now quite drunk after finishing off a bottle of Pernod. Next up, (but not tonight) Laphroig.

Fuck. This gets me so badly, right where it hurts most.
Yep, friend still hates me. Apparently "cheerfully right" isn't that attractive a trait in a friend. I wonder how attractive it is in a date, and if that explains anything...

'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"
Sue, if you're going to use the alcohol-fueled moving method, it's necessary to lure some friends over with the promise of finishing off the open bottles. Of course, that can also lead to drunken friends packing the cat a few weeks early, but you have to risk something.
