Hudson U probably has a higher death rate than that little Maine town that Jessica Fletcher used to live in.
But probably not higher than Sunnydale.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, so I just discovered how my perspective on the world is maybe a little bit skewed. My mother was telling me that she was telling a coworker about Vampire People, because the coworker is a HUGE Firefly fan, with posters and stuff in her office, and my immediate reaction was, "How could she be a Firefly fan and never have heard of Allyson???" Oh, right. Because some people just like things and don't go online to talk about them. Weird.

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

I am earwormed.
Poledancing achieved. That was FUN. I could totally sign up for a course...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Because some people just like things and don't go online to talk about them. Weird.
This always freaks me out too. There are people at work, who when it's slow, look at their email, and maybe the news or shoes, and then just STOP, and do something offline.
Freaks me right the fuck out.
YAY for fun, ita.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Is there video?
I mean, glad you enjoyed it! Did you hang upside down?

Hudson U probably has a higher death rate than that little Maine town that Jessica Fletcher used to live in.
Remember, she was also always traveling on book tours and visiting friends. Which tended to spread the corpses around a bit, geographically speaking.
Happy Birthday, Fred Pete!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's all the time-honored tradition of Miss Marple and St. Mary Mead.

You don't go upside down until level two. The move we did was called the Firefly, which cracked me up, but I wasn't in quite the right crowd to share the hilarity (but you can bet I did, with a fellow Firefly fan who's pretty stripper knowledgeable himself, as soon as I got home). This is the midpoint of it--you're spiralling down the pole and when you get to the bottom you pull yourself back up to standing ass-first.
We did it from a standing position, and from a walking with one hand on the pole position.
I had more fun than the people I went with, but I think pole dancing's more me than it is them.
It would totally rock to find a pole dancing instructor who wanted private krav lessons. Barter, baby, barter.
For the course, the web site says to pick out three songs to dance to, so of course nothing but playlists has been running through my head for the past hour.
But I doubt I'll sign up, just because I'm operating on such limited psychic resources right now.
eta: Thanks for the cartoon link! That's a total flashback to...not even sure to when.

Punishingly Intricate
The cat came back / He couldn't stay away / He was sitting on the porch / The very next day.
hah! that was totally going through my head after he, you know, came back.
I did enjoy my drinks w/ dinner. We went to a place my friend had to review for her job and it was almost totally empty. Depressing except not because the two guys who were working were hilarious. Neither of them was a waiter ("the server didn't show") and we ended up getting free shots of vodka w/ our tiramisu and the one very cute manager was flirting w/ me in a way that even I could identify as flirting. Just what I needed!
Pole dancing is not really a thing in b'more, yet. Sounds like something I'd like though! (eta mostly because I like the going upside down thing!)
