Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Noah's really cute, even when he needs changing. Then he's cute, amazingly squirmy and twisty and/or wet and stinky.

I'd still pick a wet/stinky Noah over being 2K miles from him. Kinda miss the twerp & his people.

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

This is all so very frustrating.

My brain constructs these elaborate and impractical things and holds my peace of mind hostage for them. It makes me very tired, and I only fall for it when I'm having a migraine.

Which, you know, is almost always. And certainly is now.

I wish I could take him Saturday, actually. But I just volunteered to help point or something at some krav thing this weekend, and then just sit there while everyone else actually does, you know, exciting krav stuff that I've never done before and don't know when I'll next get a chance to try.

Did I cover frustrating yet?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Kat, I love your blog. Hey, if you have a window of opportunity on Saturday, I'd love to see you. I have stuff for you, well, for your kids actually, but you know.

I find the Blair Underwood character improbable. Why no accent?

When I was in Soviet Russia I remember being surprised at how anti-Semitic they were.

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

Oh yeah. There is that.

People suck everywhere, huh?

Only place I've been called a nigger to my face was Moscow. But it was in a nice way?

"I love niggers! You're so great! Can I have my picture taken with you?"

He was very damned lucky he stopped using the word before the black American came out, that he was only using it in front of the two Africans and the Jamaican.

One of the African women turned to the other and said "What's a nigger?" "I think it's like a kaffir, but maybe worse," said her friend. I just tried not to make faces and stayed out of the photos.
