Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Jess, I love the last line of that article.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Holy transit hell, Batman! I got out of work shortly after 5pm. Waited, and waited..... and waited for my bus. After 40-45 minutes (they're supposed to run every 10 minutes and they claim there are more running during construction) a 147 finally shows up and it is PACKED. No room. I wait a few more minutes in case another is right behind. No luck. So I walk a few blocks to the nearest train station. No northbound trains. All northbound trains are traveling on the elevated tracks instead of the subway this weekend. Take southbound train to nearest elevated station (along with several hundred Cubs fans and a handful of Cards fans) then take northbound train. Got home around 7:30.

I really need to run errands and I so don't want to now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oy. Too much laundry. And I should have done more, according to dust mite allergy guidelines. But there's no way I can find the time to wash all of my bedding every week. That's a lot of stuff. Hell, I had one whole load of krav-logoed pants. I'm tired.

And my OJ isn't tasty.

'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 remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Calgary put their back up goalie in, who slashed a Detroit player and AFTER the play took his stick double handed and hit the guy again!!!

Ahh, takes me back to the days of watching Ron Hextall play for Philadelphia. I didn't think they made goalies like that anymore.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just got my third useful thing of the day done.

That's enough, right?

Third useful thing? I think you're golden until Tuesday.

The status is NOT quo.

Lee, I'll do your productive things if you do mine. It will be like Wife Swap, only with chores.

Hmmm. Why do I get the feeling I'll be vacuuming up cat hair, regardless?
