I did some good deeds on the way home in the attempt to restore balance to the cranky universe. Helped some elderly tourists, showed some other people how to get where they needed to go. Now? Now I nap, damn it.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm sorry Trudy, that does sound awful, but the above sentance is making me laugh my ass off.
It's getting funnier as the day goes on. (though this morning I was fairly rattled)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
People are being unusually pissy and rude today. Is there something in the air?
That started happening to me only after you posted that.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I haven't seen too many people, so I haven't seen the rudeness. But those of you , like Trudy, are making up for me hiding

An addition to the Shit I Didn't Say list: See?! SEE?! I was right, goddamn it. The past day and a half of panic and scrambling was UNNECESSARY. Stop second-guessing me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There has been entirely too much work today. I would like a gold star for not running away and putting blankets over my head--and that's even before the work started.
Everything in me is screaming that I should cancel physical therapy and run home, but I'm going to hold out, dammit. I'm a big girl. I can do this.
You ever have a guy that got away? Okay, I have tons, because they all get away from me. One of them just got back in touch with me, and he's still gotten away, what with relationship and all, and in his catch-up note mentions that he used to dream of sailing away with me, when he was single...
Why does no one (watch as creepy guys suddenly start doing it) say that to me when there's a diem to be carped? Tsk.
Unrelatedly, every public bathroom I've been to in LA has those disposable seat covers. (Told you it was unrelated). Is that an LA thing? A California thing? Something the US started doing while I was driving across the country? I swear I hadn't seen them in Michigan.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think more-public bathrooms tend to have them. Like, all airport bathrooms do, but I don't think the one on the floor in my office building does. Although we have a blessed lack of seat-peers, so I haven't ever wanted one there.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
A very Buffista artist (he has a show going on downtown right now).

I think it is a Ca thing, ita. I didn't really see seat covers in CT
