Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Okay. That's frustrating. I don't mind so much buying clothes online from places that have a brick-and-mortar store where things are much easier to return.

Which is what happened this week. I bought a pair of Gap Classic jeans that came with the world's longest 28 inch rise or something ridiculous like that. I swear, the waistband could touch the underwire from my bra. So I took them back to the Gap store and returned them yesterday morning. It was all good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My coworker reminded me that I have a receipt from the PO, so we'll see. The last time I returned something at the store that I had bought online (Banana Republic), it was a whole song and dance and took forever, so I figured I wouldn't bother this time.

Well, yeah. It is a song and dance at Gap and Gap-affliated stores. But I figure, whatever. it's easier than getting to the PO. But I am lazy.

SUCH cute Buffista babies. My goodness, if I keep ending up ded like this, teaching later today is going to be a problem.

Happy Birthday, CaBil!

I hate that!

I have to stop by the post office to drop off my newest stepsister's baby shower gift (books, what else?) so my mom can take it to the shower on Saturday.

Huh. Shia LaBoeuf is in Chicago, and we know this because he was arrested for being drunk and refusing to leave the Walgreens on Chicago and Michigan this weekend.

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

Happy Birthday CaBil!!

Random question: Who here got spanked by their parents? ::raises hand:: Not too often, though. The last time was probably when I was eight-ish.

How common is it for parents to spank their kids these days?

Grade school would have been the last time. Ironically enough, probably for fighting.
