I got this skirt, which is right at my knees.

Cute! Okay, wear that with a fitted black or white t-shirt, and some sort of interesting cardigan over it: [link] or [link]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

DJ, my family has this bitter joke now, every time some sort of natural disaster happens. Ohio floods, wildfires in the Midwest, whatever, and our response is "I don't think they should rebuild there. It's obviously too dangerous. I don't want my tax money going to support them."

Yeah. I mean, the Earth has enough gravitational attraction that it's constantly sucking in comets and meteors and what-not from the rest of the solar system. Obviously very dangerous - I don't know why anyone lives on Earth....

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It's the whole, "Well they haven't done anything to help themselves! I know because I stayed in the French Quarter a few years ago! I'm tired of having to think about poor people!"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Seriously, tommy. You guys had flooding and tornadoes in Chicago. I don't know why I'm subsidizing you to live there. You should move to a place where nothing bad will ever happen.

The Quarter, of course, always having been totally representative of the city as a whole. t rolls eyes

DJ, did you hear that Oliver Thomas is facing bribery charges? He was a favorite for the next mayor. Fucking politicians.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Paperdol--What about this instead of a T-shirt? Expensive, but you can wear it with a bunch of things. [link]

Also, the entire surface of the Earth is floating on molten lava thousands of miles deep. So essentially we're all one earthquake away from being sucked down beneath the Earth's crust and fried to death in lava. Why most people don't even bother to live on mountain tops I just don't know....

I did! I'm flabbergasted. I heard him speak in Houston in Dec. of 05. Sad, sad, sad.

Sometimes I just want to yoink the soapbox out from under these people and watch them do the Scooby Doo legs in midair until they fall on the asses they are talking out of.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Isn't there a map, somewhere on the internets, plotting out the various natural disasters that befall different bits of the country? I just remember that the only place without anything really bad was Utah, so whoever made the map wrote in "Mormons" for its natural disaster.

Also! Hi.
