I want to run away and join the circus.
I know someone from high school who did this.
I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Is there any method of killing mice wherein one does not have to clean up little mouse bodies?
Pet cat?
That has not been my experience. We're talking blood streaks, mousy entrails, and the head found elsewhere. Frankly, I'd rather deal with the live mouse myself.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I met a guy who dropped out of his bio major to go to circus school. I'd be all "Bravo!" for him, except when I met him he was teaching trapeze and the world's lamest Club Med.
Moral to the story...don't do it, Dana! I bet they don't have broadband!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My cat is so far removed from the wild that the one time I did have a mouse, he just played with it and let it get away. But he did scare it off!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I know someone from high school who did this.
How did it work out?

She toured with Cirque for a while, married a pole climber, divorced him and then I lost track of her.

Punishingly Intricate
I know a number of circus folk. Friends of mine are in Vermont for a year or so doing circus school right now.

wonder how marijuana does for headaches?
I just heard something about that. Well, not specifically headaches, but someone did a study that found that a moderate amount (whatever that means, the article was not specific) of pot decreased the pain felt by the subjects, but more pot eventually meant more pain, more even than not using any kind of pain killer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have heard about migraineurs being prescribed weed for the pain, but no one's brought it up to me.

(Ha! All Your Oblivion Are Belong To Us!)
I'm playing Oblivion too. Well, not right now. I'm not far in yet, so no orges, just lots of goblins.
They have a cave troll?
Does anyone else say this in their best Boromir voice when Dick Cheney appears on their TV screen? Just me?
In an odd convergence, Sean Bean is a voice actor in Oblivion.
Speaking of ships here on Earth - the British have the coolest names. Like Indefatigable and Indomitable and Dreadnought.
Nobody names ships like the Brits.
You can use the spaceship size comparison chart for a resource of names.
That is a cool chart.
Laugh tracks are evil and distracting. Especially when one fires off and I find myself trying to figure out what was supposed to be funny.
Is there any method of killing mice wherein one does not have to clean up little mouse bodies?
I don't know of a reliable one. My dog has caught a few in the backyard and one in the garage, but he never eats them. I think he thinks they are squeak toys that don't work for very long.
