Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We walked to the zoo today!

Trust my rage

Actual conversation with husband just now:

Joe: I see you have a book on a cult. Are you into a cult now?

Me: Did you actually look at the cover?

Joe: Yeah - it has a mouse with pointy ears (he sticks his fingers up next to his ears to demonstrate)

Me: So, does that really look like a book on a cult?

Joe: No...so what is it?

Me: It's a book written by a buffista about life online. She made the exact point to the publisher about putting the word 'cult' on the cover but they did it anyway.

So, not surprisingly, paperdol was right. (Oh, and I'm totally enjoying the book. I was laughing out loud at the skeezy third world hospital last week while waiting for my appointment.)

That's hysterical, Stephanie. Especially the pointy-ears demo.

Shoot, I meant to put that in Natter. Oh, well, I guess the occasional cross-post is okay. That's what I get for posting before really waking up.

Punishingly Intricate

A friend and I are planning to go take a trapeze class on Wednesday. Well, we are if we can figure out how to take public transportation to Inner Harbor -- it seems like it should be relatively simple, but it isn't. I'm betting trapeze will make me feel a bit better.

Can you take the MARC to Camden Yards and walk over? It's not that far, I don't think. I know the MARC schedule is wacky though.

My friend is super into the high-flying trapeze. She's been taking lessons there for about a year and has also gotten into the low-flying (or static) trapeze that I've also done.

Man, I'm all bloaty and sad and, I think, PMS-y which really pisses me off because I'm going to Vegas tomorrow night and (white font for girly) since I had a LEEP last week and my doctor, who is hilariously down-to-earth, told me not to "put anything up there" for three weeks after the procedure, I won't be able to use tampons. Which means no going to the pool. I could cry and probably will. I'm that much of a baby.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

That was the plan. The wackiness of the MARC schedule is what's messing stuff up.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, lisa, that sucks! LEEPs are seriously unfun, as is the recovery.

It's going to be hot and humid as hell all week so I need to figure out stuff to do with the kids that doesn't involve spending money. I can't take them to the pool by myself and it's too hot to spend all but a very few minutes outside.

This may involve long, leisurely mall walks with the stroller.

argh, yeah. Why does our public transportation system have to suck SO badly?! I hope you can work it out! I'm afraid to do high-flying due to needing to wear glasses and how they'd fly off and then I'd be flying blind! But should I get contact lenses again in the future I'll definitely try it.

This sounds like a reasonable option.

I am insanely jealous of my friends who just left for a two week vacation in Seattle and some nearby island and Victoria, BC. They were bringing SWEATERS with them.

I, on the other hand, am about to go someplace that is actually hotter than it is here (although not by much...plus everything is ACed there and it's a dry heat!)
