Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

'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"

It's 90 here. I'm hiding in the living room, with the poor little AC on Full Wheezing Blast.

Finished the stupid cover letter and sent it off. I feel like I should post it in the Buffista fiction thread or something. Though mostly I suppose it's true the nice things I said about myself.

It's not boasting if it's true, right?

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Ailleann, I'm sorry to say, if storms move northeast, you're in for a long, long stretch of storms. Because we have them, and they stretch all the way down to the west of Louisville.

Because my office building is floor-to-ceiling windows on the exterior walls, when it rains like this, it feels like being in a washing machine.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Hmm. I like my job. This never happens to me. I'm confused!

That is so fantastic, Susan. Enjoy it!

The temperature outside is fine, probably in the upper 60s. But the central air is pouring cold air directly onto my workspace. Brrrr.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

No need to feel sorry for me, Steph. I love the rain, and the only reason I'm mildly creeped out is because I'm at work and not at home.

Once I get there, bring it on!

I leave for Union Station in about 10 minutes (to ride the WOLVERINE), and predictably I am convinced that I'm forgetting something important.

Corset? tiara? porn to read - or write - on the trip?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Should I go see the Simpsons Movie in two hours with sorta-friends, or should I call it a day?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

shrift, my theory is that if you're not going camping, odds are you can get whatever you forgot when you get there. Or do without. This is why I have two cellphone chargers now.
